We provide a geometric method to stabilize asymptotically with phase an arbitrary fixed periodic orbit of a locally generic three-dimensional Hamiltonian dynamical system. The main advantage of this method is that one needs not know a…

We consider the motion of a particle on a surface which is a small perturbation of the standard sphere. One may qualitatively describe the motion by means of a precessing great circle of the sphere. The observation is employed to derive a…
Necessary conditions for asymptotic stability and stabilizability of subsets for dynamical and control systems are obtained. The main necessary condition is homotopical and is in turn used to obtain a homological one. A certain extension is…

Dissipative phenomena manifest in multiple mechanical systems. In this dissertation, different geometric frameworks for modelling non-conservative dynamics are considered. The objective is to generalize several results from conservative…
Dynamists have been studying Hamiltonian systems for a long time. However, many physical systems are dissipative and do not preserve a symplectic form. This is the case, for example, with systems involving friction, which multiply the…
We are concerned with the dynamical behavior of solutions to semilinear wave systems with time-varying damping and nonconvex force potential. Our result shows that the dynamical behavior of solution is asymptotically stable without any…
We study dynamics in a neighborhood of a nonhyperbolic fixed point or an irreducible homoclinic tangent point. General type conditions for the existence of infinite sets of periodic points are obtained. A new method, based on the study of…
We consider the stability of synchronized states (including equilibrium point, periodic orbit or chaotic attractor) in arbitrarily coupled dynamical systems (maps or ordinary differential equations). We develop a general approach, based on…
Due to the clumpy nature of the self gravitating gas composing the interstellar medium, it is not clear whether galactic gas dynamics can be discussed in terms of standard hydrodynamics. Nevertheless, it is clear that certain generic…
In this paper we consider a diffusion process obtained as a small random perturbation of a dynamical system attracted to a stable equilibrium point. The drift and the diffusive perturbation are assumed to evolve slowly in time. We describe…

We study the asymptotic stability of a dissipative evolution in a Hilbert space subject to intermittent damping. We observe that, even if the intermittence satisfies a persistent excitation condition, if the Hilbert space is…
