We elaborate on the principle that for gapped quantum spin systems with local interaction "local perturbations [in the Hamiltonian] perturb locally [the ground state]". This principle was established in [Bachmann et al. 2012], relying on…
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…
For general time-varying or switched (nonlinear) systems, converse Lyapunov theorems for stability are not available. In these cases, the integral input-to-state stability (iISS) property is not equivalent to the existence of an…
We analyse the so-called Marginal Instability of linear switching systems, both in continuous and discrete time. This is a phenomenon of unboundedness of trajectories when the Lyapunov exponent is zero. We disprove two recent conjectures of…
This paper studies distributed adaptive estimation over sensor networks with partially unknown source dynamics. We present parallel continuous-time and discrete-time designs in which each node runs a local adaptive observer and exchanges…

In chaotic dynamical systems such as the weather, prediction errors grow faster in some situations than in others. Real-time knowledge about the error growth could enable strategies to adjust the modelling and forecasting infrastructure…
We introduce a linear-scaling stochastic method to compute real-space maps of any positive local spectral operator in a tight-binding model. By employing positive-definite estimators, the sampling error at each site can be rigorously…
It is an interesting open problem to achieve adaptive prescribed-time control for strict-feedback systems with unknown and fast or even abrupt time-varying parameters. In this paper we present a solution with the aid of several design and…
We derive the expression for the local Hall conductivity for systems that lack translation symmetry and use it to study the local fluctuations of the Hall signal around disordered patches in magnetic insulators. We find that the regime in…
This paper proposes a log-linear model for the latent intensity functions of a replicated spatio-temporal point process. By simultaneously fitting correlated spatial and temporal Karhunen-Lo\`eve expansions, the model produces spatial and…
We use an extension of the van der Pol oscillator as an example of a system with multiple time scales to study the susceptibility of its trajectory to polynomial perturbations in the dynamics. A striking feature of many nonlinear,…
This article deals with stability of continuous-time switched linear systems under constrained switching. Given a family of linear systems, possibly containing unstable dynamics, we characterize a new class of switching signals under which…
We consider the quantum dynamics of a pair of coupled quantum oscillators coupled to a common correlated dissipative environment. The resulting equations of motion for both the operator moments and covariances can be integrated analytically…
Time-decaying harmonic oscillators yield dispersive estimates with weak decay, and change the threshold power of the nonlinearity between the short and the long range. In the non-critical case for the time-decaying harmonic oscillator, this…
In this paper we show that the analysis of the dynamics in localized regions, i.e., sub-systems can be used to characterize the chaotic dynamics and the synchronization ability of the spatiotemporal systems. Using noisy scalar time-series…
