We study the long-time behavior of small solutions for a broad class of 2D Dirac-type equations with suitable nonlinearities. First, we prove that for nonlinearities with power $p\geq 5$ (massless case) and $p\geq7$ (massive case), any…

A speedup, like a time change in discrete time dynamics, is a way of moving faster through the orbits of a dynamical system. Linearly recurrence is a stronger form of minimality for subshifts, shared by e.g.\ all primitive substitution…
