We study diffusion in a one-dimensional periodic array of scatterers modeled by a simple map. The chaotic scattering process for this map can be changed by a control parameter and exhibits the dynamics of a crisis in chaotic scattering. We…

The transmission of information can couple two entities of very different nature, one of them serving as a memory for the other. Here we study the situation in which information is stored in a wave field and serves as a memory that pilots…
Intermittent switchings between weakly chaotic (laminar) and strongly chaotic (bursty) states are often observed in systems with high-dimensional chaotic attractors, such as fluid turbulence. They differ from the intermittency of a…
We argue that the phase across an asymmetric dc SQUID threaded by a magnetic flux can experience an effective ratchet (periodic and asymmetric) potential. Under an external ac current, a rocking ratchet mechanism operates whereby one sign…

The R\"ossler system is one of the best known chaotic dynamical systems, generating a chaotic attractor which, by the numerical evidence, arises by a period-doubling route to chaos. In this paper we state and prove a topological criterion…
We demonstrate that the Ising all-to-all (ATA) model exhibits a range of dynamics, from integrable to chaotic, including mixed behaviour across symmetry blocks within a single system. While other works have explored the dynamics of…

Conclusive mathematical arguments are presented supporting the ratchet conjecture [R. Chac\'{o}n, J. Phys. A \textbf{40}, F413 (2007)], i.e., the existence of a universal force waveform which optimally enhances directed transport by…
We study, using Monte Carlo simulations, the steady state properties of a system of particles interacting via hard core exclusion and moving in a discrete flashing disordered ratchet potential. Quenched disorder is introduced by breaking…
Intrinsic instability of trajectories characterizes chaotic dynamical systems. We report here that trajectories can exhibit a surprisingly high degree of stability, over a very long time, in a chaotic dynamical system. We provide a detailed…
