Periodically driven flows are fundamental models of chaotic behavior and the study of their transport properties is an active area of research. A well-known analytic construction is the augmentation of phase space with an additional time…
Hybrid dynamical systems are systems which undergo both continuous and discrete transitions. As typical in dynamical analysis, an essential goal is to study the long-term behavior of these systems. In this work, we present two different…

A basic systems question concerns the concept of closure, meaning autonomomy (closed) in the sense of describing the (sub)system as fully consistent within itself. Alternatively, the system may be nonautonomous (open) meaning it receives…
