In the actively coupled ($\mathcal{AC}$) pair of waveguides, the growth of small perturbations is saturated by the focussing nonlinearity that couples the linearly growing to the linearly damped mode. On the other hand, in the…
We consider here asymptotic models that describe the propagation of one-dimensional internal waves at the interface between two layers of immiscible fluids of different densities, under the rigid lid assumption and with uneven bottoms. The…
We study the unstable spectrum close to the imaginary axis for the linearization of the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation about a periodic traveling wave in a co-moving frame. We define dynamical Hamiltonian-Hopf instabilities as points in…
Non-Hermitian two-site ``dimers'' serve as minimal models in which to explore the interplay of gain and loss in dynamical systems. In this paper, we experimentally and theoretically investigate the dynamics of non-Hermitian dimer models…
In this article, we develop a functional-analytic framework to establish existence, uniqueness, regularity of disintegration, and statistical properties of equilibrium states for a broad class of dynamical systems, potentially discontinuous…
In this paper we prove the convergence of solutions to discrete models for binary waveguide arrays toward those of their formal continuum limit, for which we also show the existence of localized standing waves. This work rigorously…
We study genericity of dynamical properties in the space of homeomorphisms of the Cantor set and in the space of subshifts of a suitably large shift space. These rather different settings are related by a Glasner-King type correspondence:…
We propose a finite element discretization for the steady, generalized Navier-Stokes equations for fluids with shear-dependent viscosity, completed with inhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions and an inhomogeneous divergence constraint.…
Fluid flows in coupled systems consisting of a free-flow region and the adjacent porous medium appear in a variety of environmental settings and industrial applications. In many applications, fluid flow is non-parallel to the fluid-porous…
This paper is concerned with pullback dynamics of 3D Navier-Stokes equations with variable viscosity and subject to time-dependent external forces. Our main result establishes the existence of finite-dimensional pullback attractors in a…
We establish that solitary stationary waves in three dimensional viscous incompressible fluids are a generic phenomenon and that every such solution is a vanishing wave-speed limit along a one parameter family of traveling waves. The…
In this paper we obtain the existence of global attractors for the dynamical systems generated by weak solution of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with damping. We consider two cases, depending on the values of the parameters…
Sufficient and necessary conditions are established for controllability of affine control systems where the control is constrained to a set whose convex hull contains the origin but is not necessarily, in contrast with previously known…
We prove existence of discrete solitons in infinite parity-time (PT-) symmetric lattices by means of analytical continuation from the anticontinuum limit. The energy balance between dissipation and gain implies that in the anticontinuum…
In this work, we explore a prototypical example of a genuine continuum breather (i.e., not a standing wave) and the conditions under which it can persist in a $\mathcal{P T}$-symmetric medium. As our model of interest, we will explore the…
In this paper we investigate the emergence of time-periodic and and time-quasiperiodic (sometimes infinitely long lived and sometimes very long lived or metastable) solutions of discrete nonlinear wave equations: discrete sine Gordon,…
Classical Hamiltonian systems with balanced loss and gain are considered in this review. A generic Hamiltonian formulation for systems with space-dependent balanced loss and gain is discussed. It is shown that the loss-gain terms may be…
Symmetries are known to dictate important physical properties and can be used as a design principle in particular in wave physics, including wave structures and the resulting propagation dynamics. Local symmetries, in the sense of a…

When waves impinge on a disordered material they are back-scattered and form a highly complex interference pattern. Suppressing any such distortions in the free propagation of a wave is a challenging task with many applications in a number…
