We study the influence of the forcing on the steady turbulent states of a von K\'arm\'an swirling flow, at constant impeller speed, or at constant torque. We find that the different forcing conditions change the nature of the stability of…
The main motivation of this article is to derive sufficient conditions for dynamical stability of periodically driven quantum systems described by a Hamiltonian H(t), i.e., conditions under which it holds sup_{t in R} | (psi(t),H(t) psi(t))…

Strong frequency dependence is unlikely in diffusive or over-damped systems. When exceptions do occur, such as in the case of stochastic resonance, it signals an interesting underlying phenomenon. We find that such a case appears in the…
We show that for any finite-dimensional quantum systems the conserved quantities can be characterized by their robustness to small perturbations: for fragile symmetries small perturbations can lead to large deviations over long times, while…
We prove the existence of quasi-periodic, small amplitude, solutions for quasi-linear and fully nonlinear forced perturbations of KdV equations. For Hamiltonian or reversible nonlinearities we also obtain the linear stability of the…
We derive simplified formulas for analyzing the stability of stochastic parametrically forced linear systems. This extends the results in [T. Blass and L.A. Romero, SIAM J. Control Optim. 51(2):1099--1127, 2013] where, assuming the…
The stability of quantum systems to perturbations of the Hamiltonian is studied. This stability is quantified by the fidelity. Dependence of fidelity on the initial state as well as on the dynamical properties of the system is considered.…
