We present a new perspective on the celebrated Sinkhorn algorithm by showing that is a special case of incremental/stochastic mirror descent. In order to see this, one should simply plug Kullback-Leibler divergence in both mirror map and…

An algorithm for detecting unstable periodic orbits in chaotic systems [Phys. Rev. E, 60 (1999), pp. 6172-6175] which combines the set of stabilising transformations proposed by Schmelcher and Diakonos [Phys. Rev. Lett., 78 (1997), pp.…

Contraction theory for dynamical systems on Euclidean spaces is well-established. For contractive (resp. semi-contractive) systems, the distance (resp. semi-distance) between any two trajectories decreases exponentially fast. For partially…

If you are given a simple three-dimensional autonomous quadratic system that has only one stable equilibrium, what would you predict its dynamics to be, stable or periodic? Will it be surprising if you are shown that such a system is…

Dynamical billiards, or the behavior of a particle traveling in a planar region $D$ undergoing elastic collisions with the boundary, has been extensively studied and is used to model many physical phenomena such as a Boltzmann gas. Of…

The aim of the present paper is to establish a Bialy-Mironov type rigidity for centrally symmetric symplectic billiards. For a centrally symmetric $C^2$ strongly-convex domain $D$ with boundary $\partial D$, assume that the symplectic…

Hamiltonian dynamical systems tend to have infinitely many periodic orbits. For example, for a broad class of symplectic manifolds almost all levels of a proper smooth Hamiltonian carry periodic orbits. The Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture is…

Classical chaotic systems with symbolic dynamics but strong pruning present a particular challenge for the application of semiclassical quantization methods. In the present study we show that the technique of periodic orbit quantization by…

We show the existence of drifting orbits for certain perturbations of non-convex Hamiltonian systems with several degrees of freedom. These orbits remain in the vicinity of resonant surfaces where the action variables can undergo changes…

We study dynamical systems that switch between two different vector fields depending on a discrete variable and with a delay. When the delay reaches a problem-dependent critical value so-called event collisions occur. This paper classifies…
