The Lyapunov exponent is used to characterize the stability of the dynamic response of the system, and it is often employed to verify if a system is chaotic. Since its discovery in the nineteenth century, various methods have been proposed…

High-dimensional dynamical systems of interacting degrees of freedom are ubiquitous in the study of complex systems. When the directed interactions are totally uncorrelated, sufficiently strong and non-linear, many of these systems exhibit…
