The Lyapunov exponents of GL(2)-cocycles over Markov shifts depend continuously on the underlying data, that is, on the matrix coefficients and the Markov measure transition probabilities.
In this manuscript, we consider finitely many maps, all of which are defined on a smooth compact measure space, with at least one map in the collection having degree strictly bigger than 1. Working with random dynamics generated by this…
We consider one-step cocycles of $2 \times 2$ matrices, and we are interested in their Lyapunov-optimizing measures, i.e., invariant probability measures that maximize or minimize a Lyapunov exponent. If the cocycle is dominated, that is,…
We consider a large class of 2D area-preserving diffeomorphisms that are not uniformly hyperbolic but have strong hyperbolicity properties on large regions of their phase spaces. A prime example is the Standard map. Lower bounds for…
The Lyapunov exponents of a chaotic system quantify the exponential divergence of initially nearby trajectories. For Hamiltonian systems the exponents are related to the eigenvalues of a symplectic matrix. We make use of this fact to…
We establish the existence, uniqueness, and stability of the stationary solution of the one-dimensional viscous Burgers equation with the Dirichlet boundary conditions on a finite interval. We obtain explicit formulas for solutions and…
We show that the top Lyapunov exponent $\lambda_+(p)$ , $p = (p_1, \cdots, p_N)$ with $p_i >0$ for each $i$, associated with a random product of quasi-periodic cocycles depends real analytically on the transition probabilities $p$ whenever…
We analyze the Lyapunov exponents of U(1) gauge fields across the phase transition from the confinement to the Coulomb phase on the lattice which are initialized by quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We observe all features of a strange…
It follows from Oseledec Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem that the Lyapunov-irregular set of points for which the Oseledec averages of a given continuous cocycle diverge has zero measure with respect to any invariant probability measure. In…
We study the regularity of the Lyapunov exponent for quasi-periodic cocycles $(T_\omega, A)$ where $T_\omega$ is an irrational rotation $x\to x+ 2\pi\omega$ on $\SS^1$ and $A\in {\cal C}^l(\SS^1, SL(2,\mathbb{R}))$, $0\le l\le \infty$. For…
This paper presents a proof that existence of a polynomial Lyapunov function is necessary and sufficient for exponential stability of sufficiently smooth nonlinear ordinary differential equations on bounded sets. The main result states that…
The purpose of these notes is to discuss the advances in the theory of Lyapunov exponents of linear $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ cocycles over hyperbolic maps. The main focus is around results regarding the positivity of the Lyapunov exponent…
We prove the positivity of the top Lyapunov exponent of the twisted (spectral) cocycle, associated with IETs, with respect to a family of natural invariant measures. The proof relies on relating the top exponent to limits of exponents along…
In this paper we first obtain a formula of averaged Lyapunov exponents for ergodic Szego cocycles via the Herman-Avila-Bochi formula. Then using acceleration, we construct a class of analytic quasi-periodic Szego cocycles with uniformly…
We study discontinuity of the Lyapunov exponent. We construct a limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operator, of which the Lyapunov exponent has a positive measure set of discontinuities. We also show that the limit-periodic potentials, whose…
We prove that infinitely renormalizable contracting Lorenz maps with bounded geometry or the so-called {\it a priori bounds} satisfies the slow recurrence condition to the singular point $c$ at its two critical values $c_1^-$ and $c_1^+$.…
For analytic quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger cocycles, You and Zhang [9] proved that the Lyapunov exponent is H\"older continuous for weak Liouville frequency. In this paper, we prove that the H\"older continuity also holds if the analytic…
We study convergence of nonlinear systems in the presence of an `almost Lyapunov' function which, unlike the classical Lyapunov function, is allowed to be nondecreasing---and even increasing---on a nontrivial subset of the phase space.…
Lyapunov exponents of heavy particles and tracers advected by homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flows are investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. For large values of the Stokes number, the main effect of inertia is to…
For non-autonomous linear stochastic differential equations (SDEs), we establish that the top Lyapunov exponent is continuous if the coefficients "almost" uniformly converge. For autonomous SDEs, assuming the existence of invariant measures…
