We consider a parametric semilinear Robin problem driven by the Laplacian plus an indefinite potential. The reaction term involves competing nonlinearities. More precisely, it is the sum of a parametric sublinear (concave) term and a…
We introduce the concept of sos-convex Lyapunov functions for stability analysis of both linear and nonlinear difference inclusions (also known as discrete-time switched systems). These are polynomial Lyapunov functions that have an…
We use a recently proposed scheme of matrix extension of dispersionless integrable systems for the Abelian case, in which it leads to linear equations, connected with the initial dispersionless system. In the examples considered, these…
Several results regarding the stability and the stabilization of linear impulsive positive systems under arbitrary, constant, minimum, maximum and range dwell-time are obtained. The proposed stability conditions characterize the pointwise…
The subject is parametrices for semi-linear problems, based on parametrices for linear boundary problems and on non-linearities that decompose into solution-dependent linear operators acting on the solutions. Non-linearities of product type…
Hamiltonian systems with a mixed phase space typically exhibit an algebraic decay of correlations and of Poincare' recurrences, with numerical experiments over finite times showing system-dependent power-law exponents. We conjecture the…
We present several results describing the interplay between the max algebraic joint spectral radius (JSR) for compact sets of matrices and suitably defined matrix norms. In particular, we extend a classical result for the conventional…
We analyze, mainly using bifurcation methods, an elliptic superlinear problem in one-dimension with periodic boundary conditions. One of the main novelties is that we follow for the first time a bifurcation approach, relying on a…
We consider a general linear program in standard form whose right-hand side constraint vector is subject to random perturbations. This defines a stochastic linear program for which, under general conditions, we characterize the fluctuations…
In a joint work with Palmer we have formulated sufficient conditions under which there exist continuous and invertible transformations of the form $H_n(x,y)$ taking solutions of a coupled system \begin{equation*} x_{n+1} =A_nx_n+f_n(x_n,…
We consider optimal control problems for partial differential equations where the controls take binary values but vary over the time horizon, they can thus be seen as dynamic switches. The switching patterns may be subject to combinatorial…
We consider time-invariant nonlinear $n$-dimensional strongly $2$-cooperative systems, that is, systems that map the set of vectors with up to weak sign variation to its interior. Strongly $2$-cooperative systems enjoy a strong…
We present four classes of nonlinear systems which may be considered discrete analogues of the Garnier system. These systems arise as discrete isomonodromic deformations of systems of linear difference equations in which the associated Lax…
We analyze stability properties of monotone nonlinear systems via max-separable Lyapunov functions, motivated by the following observations: first, recent results have shown that asymptotic stability of a monotone nonlinear system implies…
We study the asymptotic behavior of Lipschitz continuous solutions of nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations in the periodic setting. Our results apply to a large class of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations. Defining S as the set where the…
The paper is devoted to the properties of a complex matrix ``twisted,'' otherwise called ``spectral,'' cocycle, associated with substitution dynamical systems. Following a recent finding of Rajabzadeh and Safaee [arXiv:2501.16824] of an…
We study synchronization of low-dimensional ($d=2,3,4$) chaotic piecewise linear maps. For Bernoulli maps we find Lyapunov exponents and locate the synchronization transition, that numerically is found to be discontinuous (despite…
This paper discusses the stabilizability, weak stabilizability, exact observability and robust quadratic stabilizability of linear stochastic control systems. By means of the spectrum technique of the generalized Lyapunov operator, a…
Dynamics under which a system of Ising spins relaxes to a stationary state with Bolzmann-Gibbs measure and which do not fulfil the condition of detailed balance are irreversible and asymmetric. We revisit the problem of the determination of…
A sequence of real numbers (x_n) is Benford if the significands, i.e. the fraction parts in the floating-point representation of (x_n) are distributed logarithmically. Similarly, a discrete-time irreducible and aperiodic finite-state Markov…
