The Frenkel-Kontorova model describes how an infinite chain of atoms minimizes the total energy of the system when the energy takes into account the interaction of nearest neighbors as well as the interaction with an exterior environment.…
The dynamical behavior of a harmonic chain in a spatially periodic potential (Frenkel-Kontorova model, discrete sine-Gordon equation) under the influence of an external force and a velocity proportional damping is investigated. We do this…
We study numerically phonon modes of the classical one-dimensional Frenkel-Kontorova chain, in the regime of pinned phase characterized by the phonon gap and devil's staircase, as well as by a large number of states (configurational…
Many economic models feature monotone Markov dynamics on state spaces that may be noncompact. Establishing existence, uniqueness, and stability of stationary distributions in such settings has required a patchwork of sufficient conditions,…
The squeezed state is used to study the one-dimensional quantum mechanical Frenkel Kontorova model. A set of coupled equations for the particle's expectation value and the fluctuations for the ground state are derived. It is shown that…
We study the discrete nonlinear Schrodinger equation with competing powers (p,q) satisfying 2 <= p < q. The physically relevant cases are given by (p,q) = (2,3), (p,q) = (3,4), and (p,q) = (3,5). In the anticontinuum limit, all intrinsic…
In this work we revisit a classical problem of traveling waves in a damped Frenkel-Kontorova lattice driven by a constant external force. We compute these solutions as fixed points of a nonlinear map and obtain the corresponding kinetic…
We propose a fixed-point-based numerical framework for computing stationary states of nonlocal Fokker-Planck-type equations. Instead of discretising the differential operators directly, we reformulate the stationary problem as a nonlinear…
A monotone self-mapping of the nonnegative orthant induces a monotone discrete-time dynamical system which evolves on the same orthant. If with respect to this system the origin is attractive then there must exists points whose image under…
We show that, for a fixed order $\gamma\geq 1$, each local minimizer of a rather general nonsmooth optimization problem in Euclidean spaces is either M-stationary in the classical sense (corresponding to stationarity of order $1$),…
In the present chapter, we explore the possibility of a Frenkel-Kontorova (discrete sine-Gordon) model to bear interactions that decay algebraically with space, inspired by the continuum limit of the corresponding fractional derivative. In…
We introduce and study a general concept of multiple fixed point for mappings defined on partially ordered distance spaces in the presence of a contraction type condition and appropriate monotonicity properties. This notion and the obtained…
In this paper we consider random dynamical systems formed by concatenating maps acting on the unit interval $[0,1]$ in an iid fashion. Considered as a stationary Markov process, the random dynamical system possesses a unique stationary…
Motivated by the problem of sorting, we introduce two simple combinatorial models with distinct Hamiltonians yet identical spectra (and hence partition function) and show that the local dynamics of these models are very different. After a…
A harmonically trapped active Brownian particle exhibits two types of positional distributions -- one has a single peak, the other has a single well -- that signify steady-state dynamics with low and high activity, respectively. Adding…
We systematically construct stationary soliton states in a one-component, two-dimensional, repulsive, Gross-Pitaevskii equation with a ring-shaped target-like trap similar to the potential used to confine a Bose-Einstein condensate in a…
We develop here the method for obtaining approximate stability boundaries in the space of parameters for systems with parametric excitation. The monodromy (Floquet) matrix of linearized system is found by averaging method. For system with 2…
We investigate spectral and dynamical localization of a quantum system of $ n $ particles on $ \mathbb{R}^d $ which are subject to a random potential and interact through a pair potential which may have infinite range. We establish two…
The incommensurability of the supercritical Frenkel-Kontorova model is decomposed into a family of dimer type "defects" by appropriate decimations. Interestingly, this hidden dimer results in Bloch-wave type excitations of the renormalized…
