One of the common characteristics of chaotic maps or flows in high dimensions is "unstable dimensional variability", in which there are periodic points whose unstable manifolds have different dimensions. In this paper, in trying to…
While a wealth of results has been obtained for chaos in single-particle quantum systems, much less is known about chaos in quantum many-body systems. We contribute to recent efforts to make a semiclassical analysis of such systems…
We consider two stable heteroclinic cycles rotating in opposite directions, coupled via diffusive terms. A complete synchronization in this system is impossible, and numerical exploration shows that chaos is abundant at low levels of…
We revisit the equilibrium one-dimensional $\phi^4$ model from the dynamical systems point of view. We find an infinite number of periodic orbits which are computationally stable. At the same time some of the orbits are found to exhibit…
We study a particular kind of chaotic dynamics for the planar 3-centre problem on small negative energy level sets. We know that chaotic motions exist, if we make the assumption that one of the centres is far away from the other two (see…
We study the transition from integrability to chaos for the three-particle Fermi-Pasta-Ulam- Tsingou (FPUT) model. We can show that both the quartic b-FPUT model ($\alpha$ = 0) and the cubic one ($\beta$ = 0) are integrable by introducing…
This paper explores how orbits in a galactic potential can be impacted by large amplitude time-dependences of the form that one might associate with galaxy or halo formation or strong encounters between pairs of galaxies. A period of…
The onset of chaos and the mechanism of rotational damping are studied in an exactly soluble particle-rotor model. It is shown that the degree of chaoticity as inferred from the statistical measures is closely related to the onset of…
We investigate regular and chaotic two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) orbits of stars in models of a galactic potential consisting in a disk, a halo and a bar, to find the origin of boxy components, which are part of the bar or…
We discuss recent results obtained for the Hamiltonian Mean Field model. The model describes a system of N fully-coupled particles in one dimension and shows a second-order phase transition from a clustered phase to a homogeneous one when…
Quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems are of great interest in many research fields of physics and mathematics. In these systems, the phase space has regular and chaotic trajectories. These trajectories depend in part on the magnitude of…
We investigate minimal two-body Hamiltonians with random interactions that generate spectra resembling those of Gaussian random matrices, a phenomenon we term quadratic quantum chaos. Unlike integrable two-body fermionic systems, the…
In the present article, we present a galactic gravitational model of three degrees of freedom, in order to investigate and reveal the behavior of orbits in a binary quasar system. The two quasars are hosted in a pair of interacting disk…
We investigate the chaotic phase of the Bose-Hubbard model [L. Pausch et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 150601 (2021)] in relation to the bosonic embedded random matrix ensemble, which mirrors the dominant few-body nature of many-particle…
We consider stable periodic helixes as a generalization of stable periodic orbits. We see that in the studied class of iterated functions Chaos always arise suddenly. Therefore, we shall study the route from chaos to order rather than the…
The chaotic phase of the tilted Bose-Hubbard model is identified as a function of energy, tilt strength and particle interaction, from the eigenstate structure and the statistical features of the energy spectrum. Our analysis reveals that…
This paper summarises an investigation of the effects of low amplitude noise and periodic driving on phase space transport in 3-D Hamiltonian systems, a problem directly applicable to systems like galaxies, where such perturbations reflect…
The new phenomenon of semiquantum chaos is analyzed in a classically regular double-well oscillator model. Here it arises from a doubling of the number of effectively classical degrees of freedom, which are nonlinearly coupled in a Gaussian…
We investigate the properties of motion in a map model derived from a galactic Hamiltonian made up of perturbed elliptic oscillators. The phase space portrait is obtained in all three different cases using the map and numerical integration…
Recent results on chaos in triaxial galaxy models are reviewed. Central mass concentrations like those observed in early-type galaxies -- either stellar cusps, or massive black holes -- render most of the box orbits in a triaxial potential…
