Ma\~n\'e (1979) proved that if a compact metric space admits an expansive homeomorphism then it is finite dimensional. We generalize this theorem to multiparameter actions. The generalization involves mean dimension theory, which counts…

We generalize the definition of topological entropy given by Adler, Konheim, and McAndrew (AKM) for piecewise continuous self-maps defined on a compact interval (pc-maps). For this notion of entropy, we prove that the properties of the…

We extend the theory of spectral submanifolds (SSMs) to general non-autonomous dynamical systems that are either weakly forced or slowly varying. Examples of such systems arise in structural dynamics, fluid-structure interactions and…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact manifold without conjugate points and with visibility universal covering. We show that its geodesic flow has a time-preserving expansive factor which is topologically mixing and has a local product structure. As an…

We define the concept of continuum wise expansive for set-valued functions and prove that if a compact metric space admit a set-valued $cw$-expansive function then the topological entropy of $X$ is positive.} We also introduce the notion of…

In this paper, we prove that for any given closed contact manifold, there exists an infinite-dimensional space of Riemannian metrics which can be identified with the space of bundle metrics on the induced contact distribution. For each such…

An information theory description of finite systems explicitly evolving in time is presented. We impose a MaxEnt variational principle on the Shannon entropy at a given time while the constraints are set at a former time. The resulting…

It is well-known that when a positively expansive dynamical system is invertible then its underlying space is finite. C.Morales has introduced a decade ago a natural way to generalize positive expansiveness, by introducing other properties…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a homeomorphism on $X$. We show that if $f$ is both pointwise recurrent and expansive, then the dynamical system $(X, f)$ is topologically conjugate to a subshift of some…

We construct symbolic dynamics on sets of full measure (w.r.t. an ergodic measure of positive entropy) for $C^{1+\epsilon}$ flows on compact smooth three-dimensional manifolds. One consequence is that the geodesic flow on the unit tangent…

We derive a Magnus expansion for a frequency chirped quantum two-level system. We obtain a time-independent effective Hamiltonian which generates a stroboscopic time evolution. At lowest order the according dynamics is identical to results…

We construct model sets arising from cut and project schemes in Euclidean spaces whose associated Delone dynamical systems have positive toplogical entropy. The construction works both with windows that are proper and with windows that have…

Many complex systems can be modeled by temporal networks, whose organization often evolves through distinct structural phases. Detecting the change points that delimit these phases is both important and challenging. In this work, we extend…

We prove a new result in the area of hitting time statistics. Currently, there is a lot of papers showing that the first entry times into cylinders or balls are often faster than the Birkhoff's Ergodic Theorem would suggest. We provide an…

In this paper we present the time-dependent generalization of an 'ordinary' autonomous human musculo-skeletal biomechanics. We start with the configuration manifold of human body, given as a set of its all active degrees of freedom (DOF).…

We develop two notions of time-restricted sensitivity to initial conditions for measurable dynamical systems, where the time before divergence of a pair of paths is at most an asymptotically logarithmic function of a measure of their…

We consider complex dynamical systems showing metastable behavior but no local separation of fast and slow time scales. The article raises the question of whether such systems exhibit a low-dimensional manifold supporting its effective…

Exponential dichotomies play a central role in stability theory for dynamical systems. They allow to split the state space into two subspaces, where all trajectories in one subspace decay whereas all trajectories in the other subspace grow,…

We develop a gradient-flow theory for time-dependent functionals defined in abstract metric spaces. Global well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of solutions are provided. Conditions on functionals and metric spaces allow to consider the…

In this paper, we present a new qualitative extension of the Hopf theorem (and a generalization of Borsuk-Ulam theorem), concerning continuous maps $f$ from a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$. We remove the…
