Let $(X, T)$ be a topological dynamical system. We show that if each invariant measure of $(X, T)$ gives rise to a measure-theoretic dynamical system that is either: a. rigid along a sequence of "bounded prime volume" or b. admits a…
Let R = K[x1,...,xr] be a polynomial ring over a field K. Let G be a graph with vertex set {1,...,r} and let J be the cover ideal of G. We give a sharp bound for the stability index of symbolic depth function sdstab(J). In the case G is…

Electrostatic gyrokinetic instabilities and turbulence in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator are studied. Particular attention is paid to the ion-temperature-gradient (ITG) instability and its character close to marginal stability…
The stability of the solution to the equation $\dot{u} = A(t)u + G(t,u)+f(t)$, $t\ge 0$, $u(0)=u_0$ is studied. Here $A(t)$ is a linear operator in a Hilbert space $H$ and $G(t,u)$ is a nonlinear operator in $H$ for any fixed $t\ge 0$. We…
While stability analysis is a mainstay for control science, especially computing regions of attraction of equilibrium points, until recently most stability analysis tools always required explicit knowledge of the model or a high-fidelity…
We consider the Gierer-Meinhardt system with small inhibitor diffusivity and very small activator diffusivity in a bounded and smooth two-dimensional domain. For any given positive integer $k$ we construct a spike cluster consisting of $k$…
Motivated by questions in biology, we investigate the stability of equilibria of the dynamical system $\mathbf{x}^{\prime}=P(t)\nabla f(x)$ which arise as critical points of $f$, under the assumption that $P(t)$ is positive semi-definite.…
This paper presents a novel method for stability analysis of a wide class of linear, time-delay systems (TDS), including retarded non-neutral ones, as well as those incorporating incommensurate and distributed delays. The proposed method is…
In this paper, we study the effect of control input constraints on the domain of attraction of an FxTS equilibrium point. We first present a new result on FxTS, where we allow a positive term in the time derivative of the Lyapunov function.…
The usual definition of the stability region of implicit multistep methods often implies that there are some isolated points of stability within the region of instability of the numerical method. These isolated stable points may appear when…
The stability analysis of a class of discontinuous discrete-time systems is studied in this paper. The system under study is modeled as a feedback interconnection of a linear system and a set-valued nonlinearity. An equivalent…
PI controllers are the most widespread type of controllers and there is an intuitive understanding that if their gains are sufficiently small and of the correct sign, then they always work. In this paper we try to give some rigorous backing…
We investigate the stability and nonlinear local dynamics of spectrally stable wave trains in reaction-diffusion systems. For each $N\in\mathbb{N}$, such $T$-periodic traveling waves are easily seen to be nonlinearly asymptotically stable…

We introduce the concept of sos-convex Lyapunov functions for stability analysis of both linear and nonlinear difference inclusions (also known as discrete-time switched systems). These are polynomial Lyapunov functions that have an…
Invariance and stability are essential notions in dynamical systems study, and thus it is of great interest to learn a dynamics model with a stable invariant set. However, existing methods can only handle the stability of an equilibrium. In…
