Highly excited many-particle states in quantum systems (nuclei, atoms, quantum dots, spin systems, quantum computers) can be ``chaotic'' superpositions of mean-field basis states (Slater determinants, products of spin or qubit states). This…
The relevance of chaos to evolution is discussed in the context of the origin and maintenance of diversity and complexity. Evolution to the edge of chaos is demonstrated in an imitation game. As an origin of diversity, dynamic clustering of…
Classical chaos is marked by an extreme sensitivity to initial conditions, where infinitesimally close trajectories separate exponentially over time. In quantum mechanics, however, unitary evolution and the uncertainty principle preclude…
Behavioural differences may arise in the absence of genetic or environmental variation. Chaotic dynamics may influence behavioural development, and so this among-individual variation. We discuss methods and experimental designs to test this…
Dynamical chaos is a fundamental manifestation of gravity in astrophysical, many-body systems. The spectrum of Lyapunov exponents quantifies the associated exponential response to small perturbations. Analytical derivations of these…
We consider a fully stochastic excitatory neuronal network with a number of subpopulations with different firing rates. We show that as network size goes to infinity, this limits on a deterministic hybrid model whose trajectories are…
We develop a formalism to describe the discrete-time dynamics of systems containing an arbitrary number of interacting species. The individual-based model, which forms our starting point, is described by a Markov chain, which in the limit…
We study the dynamics of a single excitation in an infinite XXZ spin chain, which is launched from the origin. We study the time evolution of the spread of entanglement in the spin chain and obtain an expression for the second order spatial…
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…
Classical arguments for thermalization of isolated systems do not apply in a straightforward way to the quantum case. Recently, there has been interest in diagnostics of quantum chaos in many- body systems. In the classical case, chaos is a…
A stochastic model with a continuum of economic agents often involves shocks at both macro and micro levels. This can be formalized by a continuum of random variables that are conditionally independent given the macro level shocks. Based on…
We demonstrate that generalized entanglement [Barnum {\em et al.}, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 68}, 032308 (2003)] provides a natural and reliable indicator of quantum chaotic behavior. Since generalized entanglement depends directly on a choice of…
It is often claimed that the fundamental laws of physics are deterministic and time-symmetric and that therefore our experience of the passage of time is an illusion. This paper will critically discuss these claims and show that they are…
Information theory on a time-discrete setting in the framework of time series analysis is generalized to the time-continuous case. Considerations of the Roessler and Lorenz dynamics as well as the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process yield for…
In this work we show how the concept of majorization in continuous distributions can be employed to characterize chaotic, diffusive and quantum dynamics. The key point lies in that majorization allows to define an intuitive arrow of time,…
Consider $N$ balls initially placed in $L$ bins. At each time step take a ball from each non-empty bin and \emph{randomly} reassign the balls into the bins.We call this finite Markov chain \emph{General Repeated Balls into Bins} process. It…
We consider growth of local operators under Euclidean time evolution in lattice systems with local interactions. We derive rigorous bounds on the operator norm growth and then proceed to establish an analog of the Lieb-Robinson bound for…
We propose an uncertainty principle for chaos, focusing on two key characteristics: alpha unpredictability and Lorenz sensitivity. This principle outlines a limitation on the relationship between two infinite sequences that underpin these…
Hyperchaos is distinguished from chaos by the presence of at least two positive Lyapunov exponents instead of just one in dynamical systems. A general scenario is presented here that shows emergence of hyperchaos with a sudden large…
We consider a 2-dimensional stochastic differential equation in polar coordinates depending on several parameters. We show that if these parameters belong to a specific regime then the deterministic system explodes in finite time, but the…
