Singularities appear in numerous important mathematical models used in Physics. And in most of such cases singularities are involved in essentially nonlinear contexts. For more than four decades, general enough nonlinear theories of…
We propose a class of spectral singularities that are sensitive to the direction of excitation and are arising in nonlinear systems with broken parity symmetry. These spectral singularities are sensitive to the direction of the incident…
We consider delay differential equations (DDE) that are on the verge of an instability, i.e. the characteristic equation for the linearized equation has one root as zero and all other roots have negative real parts. In presence of small…

The {\it two-fold singularity} has played a significant role in our understanding of uniqueness and stability in piecewise smooth dynamical systems. When a vector field is discontinuous at some hypersurface, it can become tangent to that…

The main subject of this thesis rests on the study ---at different levels of description--- of instabilities in systems which are driven, i.e., maintained far from equilibrium by an external forcing. We focus here on two main classes,…
We investigate the non-equilibrium large deviations function of the particle densities in two steady-state driven systems exchanging particles at a vanishing rate. We first derive through a systematic multi-scale analysis the coarse-grained…
Large-deviations theory deals with tails of probability distributions and the rare events of random processes, for example spreading packets of particles. Mathematically, it concerns the exponential fall-of of the density of thin-tailed…
We present a brief survey of fluctuations and large deviations of particle systems with subextensive growth of the variance. These are called hyperuniform (or superhomogeneous) systems. We then discuss the relation between hyperuniformity…
This study is motivated by the question of how singularity formation and other forms of extreme behavior in nonlinear dissipative partial differential equations are affected by stochastic excitations. To address this question we consider…
We show that the large deviations of nonequilibrium systems are determined by the fluctuations of associated equilibrium dynamics. In particular, this implies that numerical calculations and experimental measurements of nonequilibrium…
