Synergies between self-force theory and other approaches to the gravitational two-body problem have traditionally relied on calculations of gauge-invariant observables as functions of orbital frequencies. However, in self-force theory one…

The Fast Lyapunov Indicators are functions defined on the tangent fiber of the phase-space of a discrete (or continuous) dynamical system, by using a finite number of iterations of the dynamics. In the last decade, they have been largely…
Two Lyapunov functionals are presented for the Enskog equation. One is to describe interactions between particles with various velocities and another is to measure the $L^1$ distance between two classical solutions. The former yields the…
