Recent progress of symbolic dynamics of one- and especially two-dimensional maps has enabled us to construct symbolic dynamics for systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Numerical study under the guidance of symbolic dynamics is…
The stable and unstable manifolds of an invariant set of a piecewise-smooth map are themselves piecewise-smooth. Consequently, as parameters of a piecewise-smooth map are varied, an invariant set can develop a homoclinic connection when its…
The collection of all non-degenerate, continuous, two-piece, piecewise-linear maps on $\mathbb{R}^2$ can be reduced to a four-parameter family known as the two-dimensional border-collision normal form. We prove that throughout an open…
We investigate sensitivity to cumulative perturbations for a few dynamical system classes of practical interest. A system is said to have bounded sensitivity to cumulative perturbations (bounded sensitivity, for short) if an additive…
We extend slow manifolds near a transcritical singularity in a fast-slow system given by the explicit Euler discretization of the corresponding continuous-time normal form. The analysis uses the blow-up method and direct trajectory-based…
We consider reduction of dimension for nonlinear dynamical systems. We demonstrate that in some cases, one can reduce a nonlinear system of equations into a single equation for one of the state variables, and this can be useful for…
In this paper, we study dimension reduction techniques for large-scale controlled stochastic differential equations (SDEs). The drift of the considered SDEs contains a polynomial term satisfying a one-sided growth condition. Such…
In this article, we study the internal stabilization and control of the critical nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation on 3-D compact manifolds. Under a geometric assumption slightly stronger than the classical geometric control condition, we…

M. Kruskal showed that each nearly-periodic dynamical system admits a formal $U(1)$ symmetry, generated by the so-called roto-rate. We prove that such systems also admit nearly-invariant manifolds of each order, near which rapid…

This paper studies the local stable and unstable manifolds of equilibria for quasilinear and fully nonlinear PDEs. These manifolds are fundamental objects in the analysis of local dynamics. While their existence is well understood for ODEs,…
We describe traveling waves in a basic model for three-dimensional water-wave dynamics in the weakly nonlinear long-wave regime. Small solutions that are periodic in the direction of translation (or orthogonal to it) form an…
We provide a new approach to stable ergodicity of systems with dominated splittings, based on a geometrical analysis of global stable and unstable manifolds of hyperbolic points. Our method suggests that the lack of uniform size of Pesin's…
