The globally positive diffeomorphisms of the 2n-dimensional annulus are important because they represent what happens close to a completely elliptic periodic point of a symplectic diffeomorphism where the torsion is positive definite. For…
We consider locally minimizing measures for the conservative twist maps of the $d$-dimensional annulus or for the Tonelli Hamiltonian flows defined on a cotangent bundle $T^*M$. For weakly hyperbolic such measures (i.e. measures with no…
This study examines the Lyapunov stability under coordinate $q$-contraction and $q$-dilatation in three dynamical systems: the discrete-time dissipative H\'enon map, and the conservative, non-integrable, continuous-time H\'enon-Heiles and…
For differentiable dynamical systems with dominated splittings, we give upper estimates on the measure-theoretic tail entropy in terms of Lyapunov exponents. As our primary application, we verify the upper semi-continuity of metric entropy…
We continue our study of the dynamics of mappings with small topological degree on (projective) complex surfaces. Previously, under mild hypotheses, we have constructed an ergodic ``equilibrium'' measure for each such mapping. Here we study…
Constraints are found on the spatial variation of finite-time Lyapunov exponents of two and three-dimensional systems of ordinary differential equations. In a chaotic system, finite-time Lyapunov exponents describe the average rate of…
Generic dynamical systems have `typical' Lyapunov exponents, measuring the sensitivity to small perturbations of almost all trajectories. A generic system has also trajectories with exceptional values of the exponents, corresponding to…
We offer a measure-theoretic extension of the concept and theory of $k$-contraction, including their generalization on fractional dimensions $d$. The respective contraction property is defined through the exponential decay of the…
Nowadays there are a number of surveys and theoretical works devoted to the Lyapunov exponents and Lyapunov dimension, however most of them are devoted to infinite dimensional systems or rely on special ergodic properties of the system. At…
We study the existence and uniqueness of (locally) absolutely continuous trajectories of a dynamical system governed by a nonexpansive operator. The weak convergence of the orbits to a fixed point of the operator is investigated by relying…
We study systems with periodically oscillating parameters that can give way to complex periodic or non periodic orbits. Performing the long time limit, we can define ergodic averages such as Lyapunov exponents, where a negative maximal…
For exact symplectic twist maps of the annulus, we etablish a choice of weak K.A.M. solutions $u_c=u(\cdot, c)$ that depend in a Lipschitz-continuous way on the cohomology class $c$. This allows us to make a bridge between weak K.A.M.…
Bochi-Katok-Rodriguez Hertz proposed in [BKH21] a program on the flexibility of Lyapunov exponents for conservative Anosov diffeomorphisms, and obtained partial results in this direction. For conservative Anosov diffeomorphisms with strong…
We construct a continuous linear cocycle over an expanding base dynamics for which the Lyapunov exponents of all ergodic invariant probability measures are small, except for one measure whose Lyapunov exponents are away from zero. The…
In the dynamical systems approach to describing turbulent or otherwise chaotic flows, an important quantity is the Lyapunov exponents and vectors that characterize the strange attractor of the flow. In particular, knowledge of the Lyapunov…
As is widely recognized in Lyapunov analysis, linearized Hamilton's equations of motion have two marginal directions for which the Lyapunov exponents vanish. Those directions are the tangent one to a Hamiltonian flow and the gradient one of…
We study the semi-discrete approximation of Aubry and Mather sets for Tonelli Lagrangians on the flat torus. Starting from the discrete Lax--Oleinik equation, we introduce natural discrete analogues of these sets and analyze their…
We consider one-step cocycles of $2 \times 2$ matrices, and we are interested in their Lyapunov-optimizing measures, i.e., invariant probability measures that maximize or minimize a Lyapunov exponent. If the cocycle is dominated, that is,…
This paper provides a systematic exposition of Lyapunov stability for compact sets in locally compact metric spaces. We explore foundational concepts, including neighborhoods of compact sets, invariant sets, and the properties of dynamical…
In this paper, we study rigidity problems between Lyapunov exponents along periodic orbits and geometric structures. More specifically, we prove that for a surface M without focal points, if the value of the Lyapunov exponents is constant…
