This survey describes the recent advances in the construction of Markov partitions for nonuniformly hyperbolic systems. One important feature of this development comes from a finer theory of nonuniformly hyperbolic systems, which we also…

In this paper the asymptotic behavior of trajectories of discontinuous vector fields is studied. The vector fields are defined on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ and the confinement of trajectories on some suitable compact set $K$…

We study the dynamical properties of the laminated horocycle flow on the unit tangent bundles of 2-dimensional smooth solenoidal manifolds of finite type. These laminations are the analog of complete hyperbolic surfaces of finite area.

We show the existence of a local stable manifold for a bidirectional discrete-time nondiffeomorphic nonlinear Hamiltonian dynamics. This is the case where zero is a closed loop eigenvalue and therefore the Hamiltonian matrix is not…

We obtain a characterization of two classes of dynamics with nonuniformly hyperbolic behavior in terms of an admissibility property. Namely, we consider exponential dichotomies with respect to a sequence of norms and nonuniformly hyperbolic…

We study the topological obstructions of dynamical convexity on contact manifolds focusing on fillability by cotangent bundles and subcritical surgeries. Using links to algebraic geometry, we motivate and define a stronger version of…

In this work we consider families of smooth vector fields having a persistent polycycle with $n$ hyperbolic saddles. We derive the asymptotic expansion of the return map associated to the polycycle, determining explicitly its leading terms.…

We extend the list of known band structure topologies to include a large family of hyperbolic nodal links and knots, occurring both in conventional Hermitian systems where their stability relies on discrete symmetries, and in the…

We study connected branches of non-constant {$2\pi$-pe}riodic solutions of the Hamilton equation \begin{displaymath} \dot{x}(t)=\lambda J\nabla H(x(t)), \end{displaymath} where $\lambda\in\halfline,$ $H\in C^2(\R^n\times\R^n,\R)$ and $…

Homoclinic chaos is usually examined with the hypothesis of hyperbolicity of the critical point. We consider here, following a (suitably adjusted) classical analytic method, the case of non-hyperbolic points and show that, under a…

We prove the following theorem: Let Q be an isolated chain control set of a control-affine system on a smooth compact manifold M. If Q is uniformly hyperbolic without center bundle, then the lift of Q to the extended state space U x M,…

We present sufficient conditions under which a given linear nonautonomous system and its nonlinear perturbation are topologically conjugated. Our conditions are of a very general form and provided that the nonlinear perturbations are…

We propose a new model for random quotients of groups using independent random walks. In this model, we show that random quotients of acylindrical hyperbolic groups asymptotically almost surely remain acylindrically hyperbolic. Our main…

In this paper we present sufficient conditions for the existence of heteroclinic or homoclinic solutions for second order coupled systems of differential equations on the real line. We point out that it is required only conditions on the…

We study a non-linear dynamical system on networks inspired by the pitchfork bifurcation normal form. The system has several interesting interpretations: as an interconnection of several pitchfork systems, a gradient dynamical system and…

Multiple time scales in dynamical systems lead to a bundling of trajectories onto slow invariant manifolds (SIMs). Although they are absent in two-dimensional holomorphic dynamical systems, a bundling of orbits is often observed as well.…

We show the existence of a family of manifolds on which all (pointwise or absolutely) partially hyperbolic systems are dynamically coherent. This family is the set of 3-manifolds with nilpotent, non-abelian fundamental group. We further…

Special subsets of orbits in chaotic systems, e.g. periodic orbits, heteroclinic orbits, closed orbits, can be considered as skeletons or scaffolds upon which the full dynamics of the system is built. In particular, as demonstrated in…

This paper analyses the stability of cycles within a heteroclinic network lying in a three-dimensional manifold formed by six cycles, for a one-parameter model developed in the context of game theory. We show the asymptotic stability of the…
