For systems evolving on a Riemannian manifold, we propose converse Lyapunov theorems for asymptotic and exponential stability. The novelty of the proposed approach is that is does not rely on local Euclidean coordinate, and is thus valid on…
The dependence of the Lyapunov exponent on the closeness parameter, $\epsilon$, in tangent bifurcation systems is investigated. We study and illustrate two averaging procedures for defining Lyapunov exponents in such systems. First, we…
This manuscript focus on in the transmission problem for one dimensional waves with nonlinear weights on the frictional damping and time-varying delay. We prove global existence of solutions using Kato's variable norm technique and we show…
The relation between the Lyapunov modes (delocalized Lyapunov vectors) and the momentum autocorrelation function is discussed in two-dimensional hard-disk systems. We show numerical evidence that the smallest time-oscillating period of the…
In the first part of the article our subject of interest is a simple symmetric random walk on the integers which faces a random risk to be killed. This risk is described by random potentials, which in turn are defined by a sequence of…
We analyse the so-called Marginal Instability of linear switching systems, both in continuous and discrete time. This is a phenomenon of unboundedness of trajectories when the Lyapunov exponent is zero. We disprove two recent conjectures of…
A simple expression for the non-equilibrium distribution function in ultra-fast transient processes is proposed. Postulating its dependence on temporal derivatives of the equilibrium integrals of motion, non-equilibrium analogues of the…
Differential analysis aims at inferring global properties of nonlinear behaviors from the local analysis of the linearized dynamics. The paper motivates and illustrates the use of differential analysis on the nonlinear pendulum model, an…
This paper considers a class of nonlinear systems consisting of a linear part with an external input and a nonlinear feedback with a backlash. Assuming that the latter is specified by a strongly convex set, we establish estimates for the…
In this paper we study the global dynamics of the inverted spherical pendulum with a vertically vibrating suspension point in the presence of an external horizontal periodic force field. We do not assume that this force field is weak or…
A classical approach for the analysis of the longtime behavior of Markov processes is to consider suitable Lyapunov functionals like the variance or more generally $\Phi$-entropies. Via purely analytic arguments it can be shown that these…
A strong analogy is found between the evolution of localized disturbances in extended chaotic systems and the propagation of fronts separating different phases. A condition for the evolution to be controlled by nonlinear mechanisms is…
The local dynamic stability method (maximum Lyapunov exponent) can assess gait stability. Two variants of the method exist: the short-term divergence exponent (DE), and the long-term DE. Only the short-term DE can predict fall risk. The…
We study the statistical fluctuations of Lyapunov exponents in the discrete version of the non-integrable perturbed sine-Gordon equation, the dissipative ac+dc driven Frenkel-Kontorova model. Our analysis shows that the fluctuations of the…
We study nonperturbative corrections to the transverse momentum distribution of vector bosons in the Drell-Yan process. Factorizing out the Sudakov effects due to soft gluons we express their contribution to the distribution in the form of…
This paper studies the uniformly asymptotic stability of nonautonomous systems on Riemannian manifolds. We establish corresponding Lyapunov-type theorems (Theorems 2.1 and 2.2), extending classical Euclidean results (e.g., [9, Theorems 4.9…
In this technical note, we consider the stability properties of a viscously damped Timoshenko beam equation with spatially varying parameters. With the help of the port-Hamiltonian framework, we first prove the existence of solutions and…
This work serves as a bridge between two approaches to analysis of dynamical systems: the local, geometric analysis and the global, operator theoretic, Koopman analysis. We explicitly construct vector fields where the instantaneous Lyapunov…
We show the relationship between the strongly non-linear limit (also termed the dispersionless or the Whitham limit) of the macroscopic fluctuation theory of certain statistical models and the inverse scattering method. We show that in the…
