Periodic forcing of an oscillatory system produces frequency locking bands within which the system frequency is rationally related to the forcing frequency. We study extended oscillatory systems that respond to uniform periodic forcing at…
While several magnetic topological semimetals have been discovered in recent years, their band structures are far from ideal, often obscured by trivial bands at the Fermi energy. Square-net materials with clean, linearly dispersing bands…

A long-standing question in two dimensional Anisotropic Kepler Problem (AKP) concerns with the uniqueness of an unstable periodic orbit (PO) for a given binary code (modulo symmetry equivalence). In this paper, a finite level ($N$) surface…
We study the stability of linear fractional order maps. We show that in the stable region, the evolution is described by Mittag-Leffler functions and a well defined effective Lyapunov exponent can be obtained in these cases. For…
Frequency responses of multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems with weak forcing and damping can be studied as perturbations from their conservative limit. Specifically, recent results show how bifurcations near resonances can be…
Tipping behavior can occur when an equilibrium of a dynamical system loses stability in response to a slowly varying parameter crossing a bifurcation threshold, or where noise drives a system from one attractor to another, or some…
A method is presented for tracing the locus of a specific peak in the frequency response under variation of a parameter. It is applicable to periodic, steady-state vibrations of harmonically forced nonlinear mechanical systems. It operates…
We show that the constrained Ising model on the kagome lattice with infinite first and third neighbor couplings undergoes an infinite series of thermal first-order transitions at which, as in the Kasteleyn transition, linear defects of…
We made the chaotic circuit proposed by Chua and the memristic circuit proposed by Muthuswamy and Chua, and analyzed the behavior of the voltage of the capacitor, electric current in the inductor and the voltage of the memristor by adding…
We investigate energy transfer and localization in a linear time-invariant oscillator chain weakly coupled to a forced nonlinear actuator. Two types of perturbation are studied: (1) harmonic forcing with a constant frequency is applied to…
Understanding stickiness and power-law behavior of Poincar\'e recurrence statistics is an open problem for higher-dimensional systems, in contrast to the well-understood case of systems with two degrees-of-freedom. We study such…
We present phase diagrams of the Harper map, which is equivalent to the problem of Bloch electrons in a uniform magnetic field (Azbel-Hofstadter model). We consider the cases where the magnetic flux $\omega$ assumes either the continued…
The devil's staircase is a fractal structure that characterizes the ground state of one-dimensional classical lattice gases with long-range repulsive convex interactions. Its plateaus mark regions of stability for specific filling fractions…
We analyze the trajectory of suspended spherical particles moving through a square array of obstacles, in the deterministic limit and at zero Reynolds number. We show that, in the dilute approximation of widely separated obstacles, the…
We consider a typical class of systems with delayed nonlinearity, which we show to exhibit chaotic diffusion. It is demonstrated that a periodic modulation of the time-lag can lead to an enhancement of the diffusion constant by several…
The chiral clock spin-glass model with q=5 states, with both competing ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic and left-right chiral frustrations, is studied in d=3 spatial dimensions by renormalization-group theory. The global phase diagram is…

Poincare's classification of the dynamics of homeomorphisms of the circle is one of the earliest, but still one of the most elegant, classification results in dynamical systems. Here we generalize this to quasiperiodically forced circle…
It is well-known that the dynamics of the Arnold circle map is phase-locked in regions of the parameter space called Arnold tongues. If the map is invertible, the only possible dynamics is either quasiperiodic motion, or phase-locked…
