This paper is concerned with boundary stabilization of two-dimensional hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations. By adapting the Lyapunov function previously proposed by the second author for linearized hyperbolic systems with…
We explore the concept of metastability in random dynamical systems, focussing on connections between random Perron-Frobenius operator cocycles and escape rates of random maps, and on topological entropy of random shifts of finite type. The…
In this paper, we study the problem of state observation of nonlinear systems over an erasure channel. The notion of mean square exponential stability is used to analyze the stability property of observer error dynamics. The main results of…
We prove results on mixing and mixing rates for toral extensions of nonuniformly expanding maps with subexponential decay of correlations. Both the finite and infinite measure settings are considered. Under a Dolgopyat-type condition on…
The rate of change of entropy $\dot S$ is measured for a system of particles floating on the surface of a fluid maintained in a turbulent steady state. The resulting coagulation of the floaters allows one to relate $\dot S$ to the velocity…
For a Markovian dynamics on discrete states, the logarithmic ratio of waiting-time distributions between two successive, instantaneous transitions in forward and backward direction is a measure of time-irreversibility. It thus serves as an…
Consider a Lamperti-Kiu Markov additive process $(J_t,\xi_t:t\geq0)$ on $\{+,-\}\times\mathbb{R}\cup\infty$ where $J$ is the modulating Markov chain component. First, we study the finiteness of the exponential functional and then consider…
We prove two continuity theorems for the Lyapunov exponents of the maximal entropy measure of polynomial automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^2$. The first continuity result holds for any family of polynomial automorphisms of constant dynamical…
Lyapunov's indirect method is an attractive method for analyzing stability of non-linear systems since only the stability of the corresponding linearized system needs to be determined. Unfortunately, the proof for finite-dimensional systems…
We construct measures of maximal $u$-entropy for any partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism that factors over an Anosov torus automorphism and has mostly contracting center direction. The space of such measures has a finite dimension, and its…
Chebyshev's inequality provides an upper bound on the tail probability of a random variable based on its mean and variance. While tight, the inequality has been criticized for only being attained by pathological distributions that abuse the…
We introduce the notion of metric entropy for a nonautonomous dynamical system given by a sequence of probability spaces and a sequence of measure-preserving maps between these spaces. This notion generalizes the classical concept of metric…
We study the regularity of the entropy spectrum of the Lyapunov exponents for hyperbolic maps on surfaces. It is well-known that the entropy spectrum is a concave upper semi-continuous function which is analytic on the interior of the set…
As a first approach to the study of systems coupling finite and infinite dimensional natures, this article addresses the stability of a system of ordinary differential equations coupled with a classic heat equation using a Lyapunov…
We prove that the Lyapunov exponents, cosidered as functions of measures with non compact support, are semicontinuous with respect to the Wasserstein topology but not with respect to the weak* topology. Moreover, we prove that they are not…
In 2019 Anthony Quas, Philippe Thieullen and Mohamed Zarrabi introduced the concept of strong fast invertibility for linear cocycles. It relates the growth of volumes between different initial times and, together with a condition on…
There are recent shifts in demand for design controllers from simplified to complex model-based. Although simplification approaches are successful in many areas of engineering control systems, high-fidelity simulation-based control design,…
Let f be a dominant rational map of P^k such that there exists s <k, with lambda_s(f)>lambda_l(f) for all l. Under mild hypotheses, we show that, for A outside a pluripolar set of the group of automorphisms of P^k, the map f o A admits a…
Given a compact topological dynamical system (X, f) with positive entropy and upper semi-continuous entropy map, and any closed invariant subset $Y \subset X$ with positive entropy, we show that there exists a continuous roof function such…
The stickiness effect is a fundamental feature of quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems. We propose the use of an entropy-based measure of the recurrence plots (RP), namely, the entropy of the distribution of the recurrence times (estimated…
