This paper considers a nonlinear spherical pendulum whose suspension point performs high-frequency spatial vibrations. The dynamics of this pendulum can be described by averaging its Hamiltonian over phases of vibrations. Rotationally…
We consider the conservative H\'enon family at the period-doubling bifurcation of its fixed point and demonstrate that the separatrices of the fixed saddle point nearing the bifurcation split exponentially: given that $\lambda_+$ is the…

We investigate planar piecewise-smooth vector fields with a discontinuity line, focusing on the bifurcation of crossing limit cycles that arise when one of the vector fields is translated along the discontinuity set. We establish…
Classical conditions for asymptotic stability of periodic solutions bifurcating from a limit cycle rely on the derivative of the corresponding bifurcation function F at the bifurcation point t. We show that for analytic systems this result…
We consider the Jaynes-Cummings model of a single quantum spin $s$ coupled to a harmonic oscillator in a parameter regime where the underlying classical dynamics exhibits an unstable equilibrium point. This state of the model is relevant to…
We consider the stability of periodic map with period-$2$ in linear fractional difference equations where the function is $f(x)=ax$ at even times and $f(x)=bx$ at odd times. The stability of such a map for an integer order map depends on…
Antiferromagnetic and ferro/ferrimagnetic orders are typically exclusive in nature, thus, their co-existence in atomic-scale proximity is expected only in heterostructures. Breaking this paradigm and broadening the range of unconventional…
Weakly damped mechanical systems under small periodic forcing tend to exhibit periodic response in a close vicinity of certain periodic orbits of their conservative limit. Specifically, amplitude frequency plots for the conservative limit…
We carried out a fluid dynamical simulation for a forced dripping faucet system using a new algorithm that was recently developed. The simulation shows that periodic external forcing induces transitions from chaotic to periodic motion and…
The attractors of a dynamical system govern its typical long-term behaviour. The presence of many attractors is significant as it means the behaviour is heavily dependent on the initial conditions. To understand how large numbers of…
The Frenkel-Kontorova model for dislocation dynamics from 1938 is given by a chain of atoms, where neighbouring atoms interact through a linear spring and are exposed to a smooth periodic on-site potential. A dislocation moving with…
Persistent currents flowing through disordered mesoscopic rings threaded by a magnetic flux are investigated. Models of fermions with on-site interactions (Hubbard model) or models of spinless fermions with nearest neighbor interactions are…

A sharp stability analysis of atomistic-to-continuum coupling methods is essential for evaluating their capabilities for predicting the formation and motion of lattice defects. We formulate a simple one-dimensional model problem and give a…
In the presence of noncompact symmetry, the stability of relative equilibria under momentum-preserving perturbations does not generally imply robust stability under momentum-changing perturbations. For axisymmetric relative equilibria of…
