In this manuscript, we consider finitely many maps, all of which are defined on a smooth compact measure space, with at least one map in the collection having degree strictly bigger than 1. Working with random dynamics generated by this…
Lyapunov exponents of heavy particles and tracers advected by homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flows are investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. For large values of the Stokes number, the main effect of inertia is to…
Unlike ordinary differential equations (ODEs), linear partial differential equations (PDEs) admit multiple non-equivalent notions of stability. This variety makes interpretation of Lyapunov stability results challenging. \blue{To simplify…
We present a stability analysis framework for the general class of discrete-time linear switching systems for which the switching sequences belong to a regular language. They admit arbitrary switching systems as special cases. Using recent…
We prove that the Lyapunov exponents of random products in a (real or complex) matrix group depends continuously on the matrix coefficients and probability weights. More generally, the Lyapunov exponents of the random product defined by any…
In this paper we introduce a method that allows one to prove uniform local results for one-dimensional discrete Schr\"odinger operators with Sturmian potentials. We apply this method to the transfer matrices in order to study the Lyapunov…
In this paper, we study two properties of the Lyapunov exponents under small perturbations: one is when we can remove zero Lyapunov exponents and the other is when we can distinguish all the Lyapunov exponents. The first result shows that…
The largest Lyapunov exponent of an ergodic Hamiltonian system is the rate of exponential growth of the norm of a typical vector in the tangent space. For an N-particle Hamiltonian system, with a smooth Hamiltonian of the type p^2 + v(q),…
In this paper, we study the problem of control of discrete-time linear time varying systems over uncertain channels. The uncertainty in the channels is modeled as a stochastic random variable. We use exponential mean square stability of the…
This paper considers the stability problem of a linear time invariant system in feedback with a string equation. A new Lyapunov functional candidate is proposed based on the use of augmented states which enriches and encompasses the…
We consider a finite number of orientation preserving $C^2$ interval diffeomorphisms and apply them randomly in such a way that the expected Lyapunov exponents at the boundary points are positive. We prove the exponential decay of…
We study, both numerically and theoretically, the relationship between the random Lyapunov exponent of a family of area preserving diffeomorphisms of the 2-sphere and the mean of the Lyapunov exponents of the individual members.
The Lyapunov exponent corresponding to a set of square matrices $\mathcal{A} = \{A_1, \dots, A_n \}$ and a probability distribution $p$ over $\{1, \dots, n\}$ is $\lambda(\mathcal{A},p) := \lim_{k \to \infty} \frac{1}{k} \,\mathbb{E} \log…
In many applications, there is a desire to determine if the dynamics of interest are chaotic or not. Since positive Lyapunov exponents are a signature for chaos, they are often used to determine this. Reliable estimates of Lyapunov…
We compute the full Lyapunov spectra for a hard-disk fluid under temperature gradient and shear. The system is thermalized by deterministic and time-reversible scattering at the boundary. This thermostating mechanism allows for energy…
We consider small nonlinear perturbations of linear systems on a time scale with the phase space being finite or infinite-dimensional. For $\Delta$-differential operators, corresponding to linear dynamic systems we consider their…
The statistical behaviour of a product of independent, identically distributed random matrices in $\text{SL}(2,{\mathbb R})$ is encoded in the generalised Lyapunov exponent $\Lambda$; this is a function whose value at the complex number $2…
The scaling behaviour of the Lyapunov exponent near the transition to chaos via type-III intermittency is determined for a generic map. A critical exponent $\beta$ expressing the scaling of the Lyapunov exponent as a function of both, the…
The Lyapunov exponents of a chaotic system quantify the exponential divergence of initially nearby trajectories. For Hamiltonian systems the exponents are related to the eigenvalues of a symplectic matrix. We make use of this fact to…
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…
