We show that the Lyapunov exponent (LE) of periodic orbits with Lebesgue measure zero from the Gauss map can be used to determine the main qualitative behavior of the LE of a Hamiltonian system. The Hamiltonian system is a one-dimensional…
A new type of deterministic chaos for a system described by iterative two-dimensional maps is reported. The series being generated by the original map has an average upward trend while the first difference, which is the series of changes…
Random walk is a fundamental concept with applications ranging from quantum physics to econometrics. Remarkably, one specific model of random walks appears to be ubiquitous across many fields as a tool to analyze transport phenomena in…
A class of n-dimensional Poisson systems reducible to an unperturbed harmonic oscillator shall be considered. In such case, perturbations leaving invariant a given symplectic leaf shall be investigated. Our purpose will be to analyze the…
Calibrating a L\'evy process usually requires characterizing its jump distribution. Traditionally this problem can be solved with nonparametric estimation using the empirical characteristic functions (ECF), assuming certain regularity, and…
We construct a white noise theory and white noise calculus for the (multi-parameter) L\' evy sheet and its compensated Poisson random measures. The theory applies to stochastic partial differential equations subject to L\' evy noise.
We consider Malliavin calculus based on the It\^o chaos decomposition of square integrable random variables on the L\'evy space. We show that when a random variable satisfies a certain measurability condition, its differentiability and…
Anomalous diffusion processes, in particular superdiffusive ones, are known to be efficient strategies for searching and navigation by animals and also in human mobility. One way to create such regimes are L\'evy flights, where the walkers…
This paper introduces a class of polynomial maps in Euclidean spaces, investigates the conditions under which there exist Smale horseshoes and uniformly hyperbolic invariant sets, studies the chaotic dynamical behavior and strange…
We prove a metric space scaling limit for a critical random graph with independent and identically distributed degrees having power-law tail behaviour with exponent $\alpha+1$, where $\alpha \in (1,2)$. The limiting components are…
L\'evy flights for light have been demonstrated in disordered systems with and without optical gain, and remained unobserved in ordered ones. In the present letter, we investigate, numerically and experimentally, L\'evy flights for light in…
Chirikov's celebrated criterion of resonance overlap has been widely used in celestial mechanics and Hamiltonian dynamics to detect global instability, but is rarely rigourous. We introduce two simple Hamiltonian systems, each depending on…
We study, by numerical simulations and semi-rigorous arguments, a two-parameter family of convex, two-dimensional billiard tables, generalizing the one-parameter class of oval billiards of Benettin--Strelcyn [Phys. Rev. A 17, 773 (1978)].…
It is recognised now that a variety of real-life phenomena ranging from diffuson of cold atoms to motion of humans exhibit dispersal faster than normal diffusion. L\'evy walks is a model that excelled in describing such superdiffusive…
We exhibit a remarkable equivalence between the dynamics of an intermittent nonlinear map and the electronic transport properties (obtained via the scattering matrix) of a crystal defined on a double Cayley tree. This strict analogy reveals…
Comb geometry, constituted of a backbone and fingers, is one of the most simple paradigm of a two dimensional structure, where anomalous diffusion can be realized in the framework of Markov processes. However, the intrinsic properties of…
For the class of differentiable maps of the plane and, in particular, for standard-like maps (McMillan form), a simple relation is shown between the directions of the local invariant manifolds of a generic point and its contribution to the…
The characteristic (Laplace or L\'evy) exponents uniquely characterize infinitely divisible probability distributions. Although of purely mathematical origin they appear to be uniquely associated with the memory functions present in…
