In this work we present a theoretical and numerical study of the behaviour of the maximum Lyapunov exponent for a generic coupled-map-lattice in the weak-coupling regime. We explain the observed results by introducing a suitable…

We focus on the frontier between the chaotic and regular regions for the classical version of the quantum kicked top. We show that the sensitivity to the initial conditions is numerically well characterised by $\xi=e_q^{\lambda_q t}$, where…
The covariant Lyapunov analysis is generalised to systems attached to deterministic thermal reservoirs that create a heat current across the system and perturb it away from equilibrium. The change in the Lyapunov exponents as a function of…
Graphical continuous Lyapunov models offer a new perspective on modeling causally interpretable dependence structure in multivariate data by treating each independent observation as a one-time cross-sectional snapshot of a temporal process.…

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…
We study chaotic synchronization in networks with time-delayed coupling. We introduce the notion of strong and weak chaos, distinguished by the scaling properties of the maximum Lyapunov exponent within the synchronization manifold for…
The goal of this paper is twofold. In the first part we discuss a general approach to determine Lyapunov exponents from ensemble- rather than time-averages. The approach passes through the identification of locally stable and unstable…
In this paper, we consider the stability of discrete-time linear switched systems with a common non-strict Lyapunov matrix.
Switched linear hyperbolic partial differential equations are considered in this paper. They model infinite dimensional systems of conservation laws and balance laws, which are potentially affected by a distributed source or sink term. The…
We study the problem of estimating the maximal Lyapunov exponent of dominated cocycles. In particular we are concerned with cocycles over Gibbs states on shifts of finite type for which both the function defining the cocycle and the…
This paper studies the stability of sampled and networked control systems with sampling and communication times governed by probabilistic clocks. The clock models have few restrictions, and can be used to model numerous phenomena such as…
The correct computation of orbits of discrete dynamical systems on the interval is considered. Therefore, an arbitrary-precision floating-point approach based on automatic error analysis is chosen and a general algorithm is presented. The…
This paper introduces a novel approach to evaluating the asymptotic stability of equilibrium points in both continuous-time (CT) and discrete-time (DT) nonlinear autonomous systems. By utilizing indirect Lyapunov methods and linearizing…
We show that it is possible to associate univocally with each given solution of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation a particular phase flow ("quantum flow") of a non-autonomous dynamical system. This fact allows us to introduce a…
