"Sticky" motion in mixed phase space of conservative systems is difficult to detect and to characterize, in particular for high dimensional phase spaces. Its effect on quasi-regular motion is quantified here with four different measures,…

We show, using covariant Lyapunov vectors, that the tangent space of spatially-extended dissipative systems is split into two hyperbolically decoupled subspaces: one comprising a finite number of frequently entangled "physical" modes, which…

Driven-dissipative systems define a broad class of non-equilibrium systems where an external drive (e.g. laser) competes with a dissipative environment. The steady state of dynamics is generically distinct from a thermal state…
