Nonlinear dynamical systems are ubiquitous in nature and they are hard to forecast. Not only they may be sensitive to small perturbations in their initial conditions, but they are often composed of processes acting at multiple scales.…
We present a framework to transform the problem of finding a Lyapunov function of a Chemical Reaction Network (CRN) in concentration coordinates with arbitrary monotone kinetics into finding a common Lyapunov function for a linear parameter…
In this article, we prove a Reocurrence Theorem over function fields of curves over $\mathbf{C}(\! (t)\! )$ and over finite extensions of the Laurent series field $\mathbf{C}(\! (x,y)\! )$. This provides a partial replacement to…
This paper briefly discusses some questions with analytical and topological aspects, with hopefully some useful references on both sides.
Complex networks are an important paradigm of modern complex systems sciences which allows quantitatively assessing the structural properties of systems composed of different interacting entities. During the last years, intensive efforts…
We prove a general theorem that gives a linear recurrence for tuples of paths in every cylindrical network. This can be seen as a cylindrical analog of the Lindstr\"om-Gessel-Viennot theorem. We illustrate the result by applying it to Schur…
In this paper, we report several new geometric and Lyapunov characterizations of incrementally stable systems on Finsler and Riemannian manifolds. A new and intrinsic proof of an important theorem in contraction analysis is given via the…
Brains process information through the collective dynamics of large neural networks. Collective chaos was suggested to underlie the complex ongoing dynamics observed in cerebral cortical circuits and determine the impact and processing of…
The paper is devoted to the properties of a complex matrix ``twisted,'' otherwise called ``spectral,'' cocycle, associated with substitution dynamical systems. Following a recent finding of Rajabzadeh and Safaee [arXiv:2501.16824] of an…
Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional locally compact Hausdorff space not necessarily metric and $G$ a compactly generated topological group not necessarily abelian or countable. We define recurrence at a point for any continuous action of $G$ on…
An orientation-preserving recurrent homeomorphism of the two-sphere which is not the identity is shown to admit exactly two fixed points. A recurrent homeomorphism of a compact surface with negative Euler characteristic is periodic.
We present the example of l^p spaces, where we examine results of topological and algebraic genericity and spaceability. At the end of the paper we include a project with other chains of spaces, mainly of holomorphic functions, as Hardy…
The long-time behavior is one of the most fundamental properties of dynamical systems. Poincar\'e studied the Poisson stability to capture the property of whether points return arbitrarily near the initial positions. Birkhoff studied the…
A high dimensional dynamical system is often studied by experimentalists through the measurement of a relatively low number of different quantities, called an observation. Following this idea and in the continuity of Boshernitzan's work,…
You may have seen the words "topological recursion" mentioned in papers on matrix models, Hurwitz theory, Gromov-Witten theory, topological string theory, knot theory, topological field theory, JT gravity, cohomological field theory, free…
Inspired by the widespread concept of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals of complete type, this article proposes an alternative class of functionals, termed Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals of robust type. Their construction aims at improving…
Herein, a methodology is developed to replicate functions, measures and stochastic processes onto a compact metric space. Many results are easily established for the replica objects and then transferred back to the original ones. Two…
We prove a robust converse barrier function theorem via the converse Lyapunov theory. While the use of a Lyapunov function as a barrier function is straightforward, the existence of a converse Lyapunov function as a barrier function for a…
We construct a combinatorial model that is described by the cube recurrence, a nonlinear recurrence relation introduced by Propp, which generates families of Laurent polynomials indexed by points in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. In the process, we prove…
We discuss selected topics of current research interest in the theory of dynamical systems, with emphasis on dimension theory, multifractal analysis, and quantitative recurrence. The topics include the quantitative versus the qualitative…
