The aim of the paper is to introduce an alternative notion of two-scale convergence which gives a more natural modeling approach to the homogenization of partial differential equations with periodically oscillating coefficients: while…
We present a bifurcation analysis of a normal form for travelling waves in one-dimensional excitable media. The normal form which has been recently proposed on phenomenological grounds is given in form of a differential delay equation. The…
In this study, we formulate a set of differential equations for a binary system to describe the secular-tidal evolution of orbital elements, rotational dynamics, and deformation (flattening), under the assumption that one body remains…
We study the existence and stability of solitons in the quadratic nonlinear media with spatially localized ${\cal PT}$-symmetric modulation of the linear refractive index. Families of stable one and two hump solitons are found. The…
We study the dynamics of a rigid body in a central gravitational field modeled as a Hamiltonian system with continuous rotational symmetries following the geometrical framework of Wang et al. Novelties of our work are the use the Reduced…
We consider a class of perturbations of the 2D harmonic oscillator, and of some other dynamical systems, which we show are isomorphic to a function of a toric system (a Birkhoff canonical form). We show that for such systems there exists a…
The normal forms up to the third order for a Hopf-steady state bifurcation of a general system of partial functional differential equations (PFDEs) is derived based on the center manifold and normal form theory of PFDEs. This is a…
In this paper we study the stabilization of rotating waves using time delayed feedback control. It is our aim to put some recent results in a broader context by discussing two different methods to determine the stability of the target…
In non-integrable Hamiltonian systems with mixed phase space and discrete symmetries, sequences of pitchfork bifurcations of periodic orbits pave the way from integrability to chaos. In extending the semiclassical trace formula for the…
Normal form stability estimates are a basic tool of Celestial Mechanics for characterizing the long-term stability of the orbits of natural and artificial bodies. Using high-order normal form constructions, we provide three different…

We study dynamics and bifurcations of 2-dimensional reversible maps having a symmetric saddle fixed point with an asymmetric pair of nontransversal homoclinic orbits (a symmetric nontransversal homoclinic figure-8). We consider…
We study the two-dimensional border-collision normal form (a four-parameter family of continuous, piecewise-linear maps on $\mathbb{R}^2$) in the robust chaos parameter region of [S. Banerjee, J.A. Yorke, C. Grebogi, Robust Chaos, Phys.…
Using positional data from video-microscopy and applying the equipartition theorem for harmonic Hamiltonians, we determine the wave-vector-dependent normal mode spring constants of a two-dimensional colloidal model crystal and compare the…
We present a Lyapunov centre theorem for an antisymplectically reversible Hamiltonian system exhibiting a nondegenerate $1:1$ or $1:-1$ semisimple resonance as a detuning parameter is varied. The system can be finite- or infinite…
We prove a normal form theorem for Poisson structures around Poisson transversals (also called cosymplectic submanifolds), which simultaneously generalizes Weinstein's symplectic neighborhood theorem from symplectic geometry and Weinstein's…
We study bifurcations of symmetric elliptic fixed points in the case of \emph{p}:\emph{q} resonances with odd $q\geq 3$. We consider the case where the initial area-preserving map $\bar z =\lambda z + Q(z,z^*)$ possesses the central…

A tight binding representation of the kicked Harper model is used to obtain an integrable semiclassical Hamiltonian consisting of degenerate "quantized" orbits. New orbits appear when renormalized Harper parameters cross integer multiples…
