We use entropy theory as a new tool to study sectional hyperbolic flows in any dimension. We show that for $C^1$ flows, every sectional hyperbolic set $\Lambda$ is entropy expansive, and the topological entropy varies continuously with the…

In this note, we consider the thermodynamic formalism for Lorenz attractors of flows in any dimension. Under a mild condition on the H\"older continuous potential function $\phi$, we prove that for an open and dense subset of $C^1$ vector…

We prove that every $C^1$ three-dimensional flow with positive topological entropy can be $C^1$ approximated by flows with homoclinic orbits. This extends a previous result for $C^1$ surface diffeomorphisms \cite{g}.

We define the concept of continuum wise expansive for flows, and we prove that continuum wise expansive flows on compact metric spaces with topological dimension greater than one have positive entropy.

We consider reversible vector fields in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ such that the set of fixed points of the involutory reversing symmetry is $n$-dimensional. Let such system have a smooth one-parameter family of symmetric periodic orbits which is of…

We consider the Lorenz equations, a system of three dimensional ordinary differential equations modeling atmospheric convection. These equations are chaotic and hard to study even numerically, and so a simpler "geometric model" has been…

In this paper a Lorenz-like system, describing the process of rotating fluid convection, is considered. The present work demonstrates numerically that this system, also like the classical Lorenz system, possesses a homoclinic trajectory and…

The classical Lorenz flow, and any flow which is close to it in the $C^2$-topology, satisfies a Central Limit Theorem (CLT). We prove that the variance in the CLT varies continuously.

Given any $K>0$, we construct two equivalent $C^2$ flows, one of which has positive topological entropy larger than $K$ and admits zero as the exponential growth of periodic orbits, in contrast, the other has zero topological entropy and…

In this work we study the problem of positiveness of topological entropy for flows using pointwise dynamics. We show that the existence of a non-periodic nonwandering point of an expansive and non-singular flow with shadowing is a…

In this article, we exhibit certain linking properties of periodic orbits of $C^{1+\alpha}$ flows with positive topological entropy on closed 3-manifolds M. It is shown that any such flow contains a link L of periodic orbits and a horseshoe…

We prove that heterodimensional cycles can be created by unfolding a pair of homoclinic tangencies in a certain class of C-infinity diffeomorphisms. This implies the existence of a C2- open domain in the space of dynamical systems with a…

A homoclinic class of a vector field is the closure of the transverse homoclinic orbits associated to a hyperbolic periodic orbit. An attractor (a repeller) is a transitive set to which converges every positive (negative) nearby orbit. We…

In this article we study the regularity of the topological and metric entropy of partially hyperbolic flows with two-dimensional center direction. We show that the topological entropy is upper semicontinuous with respect to the flow, and we…

We study the dynamics of the attractor of the doubling map with an asymmetrical hole by associating to each hole an element of the lexicographic world. A description of the topological entropy function is given. We show that the set of…

We introduce the concept of topological expansive flow. We prove that this concept is invariant by topological conjugacy and reduces to expansivity in the compact case. We characterize tiopological expansive flows as rescaling expansive…

The theoretical and numerical understanding of the key concept of topological entropy is an important problem in dynamical systems. Most studies have been carried out on maps (discrete-time systems). We analyse a scenario of global changes…

An {\em attractor} is a transitive set of a flow to which all positive orbit close to it converges. An attractor is {\em singular-hyperbolic} if it has singularities (all hyperbolic) and is partially hyperbolic with volume expanding central…

Let M be a closed manifold whose based loop space is ``complicated''. Examples are rationally hyperbolic manifolds and manifolds whose fundamental group has exponential growth. We prove that the topological entropy of any Reeb flow on the…

In this tutorial, we discuss self-excited and hidden attractors for systems of differential equations. We considered the example of a Lorenz-like system derived from the well-known Glukhovsky--Dolghansky and Rabinovich systems, to…
