Let $T$ be an expanding Markov map with a countable number of inverse branches and a repeller $\Lambda$ contained within the unit interval. Given $\alpha \in \R_+$ we consider the set of points $x \in \Lambda$ for which $T^n(x)$ hits a…

The Lyapunov exponent characterizes the asymptotic behavior of long matrix products. Recognizing scenarios where the Lyapunov exponent is strictly positive is a fundamental challenge that is relevant in many applications. In this work we…

We calculate the Lyapunov exponents in a classical molecular dynamics framework. The system is composed of few hundreds particles interacting either through Yukawa (Nuclear) or Slater-Kirkwood (Atomic) forces. The forces are chosen to give…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$, and let $\alpha_{1}$, $\alpha_{2}$, and $\alpha_{3}$ be algebraically independent and transcendental over $k$. Let $K$ be the transcendental extension of $k$ obtained by adjoining the elementary…

The statistical behaviour of a product of independent, identically distributed random matrices in $\text{SL}(2,{\mathbb R})$ is encoded in the generalised Lyapunov exponent $\Lambda$; this is a function whose value at the complex number $2…

In this paper, we study rigidity problems between Lyapunov exponents along periodic orbits and geometric structures. More specifically, we prove that for a surface M without focal points, if the value of the Lyapunov exponents is constant…

Given an arbitrary continuous flow on a manifold M, let CMin be the set of its compact minimal sets, endowed with the Hausdorff metric, and S the subset of those that are Lyapunov stable. A topological characterization of the interior of S,…

We prove that every self-homeomorphism $h : K_s \to K_s$ on the inverse limit space $K_s$ of tent map $T_s$ with slope $s \in (\sqrt 2, 2]$ is isotopic to a power of the shift-homeomorphism $\sigma^R : K_s \to K_s$.

An explicit relation between the dimensional loss ($\Delta D$), entropy production and transport is established under thermal gradients, relating the microscopic and macroscopic behaviors of the system. The extensivity of $\Delta D$ in…

Using the symplectic tomography map, both for the probability distributions in classical phase space and for the Wigner functions of its quantum counterpart, we discuss a notion of Lyapunov exponent for quantum dynamics. Because the…

We prove the entropic continuity of Lyapunov exponent for C^r maps of the interval or of the circle with large entropy for r>1, without making any assumptions on the set of critical points. A consequence is the upper semi-continuity of…

We investigate minimizers and critical points for scale-invariant tangent-point energies ${\rm TP}^{p,q}$ of closed curves. We show that a) minimizing sequences in ambient isotopy classes converge to locally critical embeddings in all but…

The celebrated Oseledets theorem \cite{O}, building over seminal works of Furstenberg and Kesten on random products of matrices and random variables taking values on non-compact semisimple Lie groups \cite{FK,Furstenberg}, ensures that the…

In this paper we introduce a notion of expansiveness for a set valued map defined on a topological space different from that given by Richard Williams at \cite{Wi, Wi2} and prove that the topological entropy of an expansive set valued map…

A study of rational maps of the real or complex projective plane of degree two or more, concentrating on those which map an elliptic curve onto itself, necessarily by an expanding map. We describe relatively simple examples with a rich…

Let $(X_{A},\sigma_{A})$ be a shift of finite type and $\text{Aut}(\sigma_{A})$ its corresponding automorphism group. Associated to $\phi \in \text{Aut}(\sigma_{A})$ are certain Lyapunov exponents $\alpha^{-}(\phi), \alpha^{+}(\phi)$ which…

A random matrix with rows distributed as a function of their length is said to be isotropic. When these distributions are Gaussian, beta type I, or beta type II, previous work has, from the viewpoint of integral geometry, obtained the…

We present an analytical-numerical method providing robust upper estimates for the topological entropy or, more generally, uniform volume growth exponents of differentiable mappings. By introducing varying metrics, we simplify the analysis…
