Transitions to chaos in archetypal low-dimensional nonlinear maps offer real and precise model systems in which to assess proposed generalizations of statistical mechanics. The known association of chaotic dynamics with the structure of…
Deterministic chaos is commonly associated with spectral criticality: exponential sensitivity is expected when Jacobian eigenvalues exceed unity in parts of the attractor, producing the local expansion that offsets contraction elsewhere. We…
It is shown that conductance fluctuations due to phase coherent ballistic transport through a chaotic cavity generically are fractals. The graph of conductance vs. externally changed parameter, e.g. magnetic field, is a fractal with…

Superconducting instability can occur in three-dimensional quadratic band crossing semimetals only at a finite coupling strength, due to the vanishing of density of states at the quadratic band touching point. Since realistic materials are…
This paper studies distributional chaos in non-autonomous discrete systems generated by given sequences of maps in metric spaces. In the case that the metric space is compact, it is shown that a system is Li-Yorke{\delta}-chaotic if and…
One major open conjecture in the area of critical random graphs, formulated by statistical physicists, and supported by a large amount of numerical evidence over the last decade [23, 24, 28, 63] is as follows: for a wide array of random…
We study non-Gaussian log-correlated multiplicative chaos, where the random field is defined as a sum of independent fields that satisfy suitable moment and regularity conditions. The convergence, existence of moments and analyticity with…

The Chirikov resonance-overlap criterion predicts the onset of global chaos if nonlinear resonances overlap in energy, which is conventionally assumed to require a non-small magnitude of perturbation. We show that, for a time-periodic…
The metallicity distributions of globular cluster (GC) systems in galaxies are a critical test of any GC formation scenario. In this work, we investigate the predicted GC metallicity distributions of galaxies in the MOdelling Star cluster…
We introduce and analyze a broad class of continuous directed polymers in $\mathbb{R}^d$ driven by Gaussian environments that are white in time and spatially correlated, under Dalang's condition. Using an It\^o-renormalized…
Dynamical chaos has recently been shown to exist in the Gaussian approximation in quantum mechanics and in the self-consistent mean field approach to studying the dynamics of quantum fields. In this study, we first show that any variational…
In a fully 3-D system such as a stellarator, the toroidal mode number $n$ ceases to be a good quantum number--all $n$s within a given mode family being coupled. It is found that the discrete spectrum of unstable ideal MHD…
Polynomial chaos is a powerful technique for propagating uncertainty through ordinary and partial differential equations. Random variables are expanded in terms of orthogonal polynomials and differential equations are derived for the…
We show that critical systems of finite size develop a fractal structure in momentum space with anomalous dimension given in terms of the isotherm critical exponent delta of the corresponding infinite system. The associated power laws of…
