In a recent paper, we presented an intelligent evolutionary search technique through genetic programming (GP) for finding new analytical expressions of nonlinear dynamical systems, similar to the classical Lorenz attractor's which also…
This is the first of three papers on the geometric and combinatorial characterization of global Sturm attractors which consist of a single closed 3-ball. The underlying scalar PDE is parabolic, $$ u_t = u_{xx} + f(x,u,u_x)\,, $$ on the unit…

We consider the model of self-avoiding walks on the $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice interacting with a $d^*$-dimensional defect, where $1\leq d^*<d$. Such an interaction can be attractive or repulsive, and is controlled by a Boltzmann…
For a 2-dimensional map representing an expanding geometric Lorenz at- tractor we prove that the attractor is the closure of a union of as long as possible unstable leaves with ending points. This allows to define the notion of good…
We show that two seemingly unrelated problems - the trapping of an atom in an optical superlattice (OSL) and the libration of a planar rigid rotor in combined electric and optical fields - have isomorphic Hamiltonians. Formed by the…
We describe the quantum phases of interacting three component fermions in the presence of spin-orbit coupling, as well as linear and quadratic Zeeman fields. We classify the emerging superfluid phases in terms of the loci of zeros of their…
We investigate the symmetries of the near horizon geometry of extremal stationary black holes in four dimensional Einstein gravity coupled to abelian gauge fields and neutral scalars. Careful consideration of the equations of motion and the…
We introduce a spin ladder with discrete symmetries designed to emulate a two-dimensional spin-1/2 boson system at half-filling. Using global properties, such as the structure of topological defects, we establish a correspondence between…
We study the contact process on layered networks in which each layer is unidirectionally coupled to the next layer. Each layer has elements sitting on i) Erd{\"o}s-R{\'e}yni network, ii) a $d$-dimensional lattice. The layer at the top which…
We address the problem of understanding the dynamics around typical singular points of $3D$ piecewise smooth vector fields. A model $Z_0$ in $3D$ presenting a T-singularity is considered and a complete picture of its dynamics is obtained in…
For small $\epsilon>0$, the system $\dot x = \epsilon$, $\dot z = h(x,z,\epsilon)z$, with $h(x,0,0)<0$ for $x<0$ and $h(x,0,0)>0$ for $x>0$, admits solutions that approach the $x$-axis while $x<0$ and are repelled from it when $x>0$. The…
We study the bifurcation diagram of the R\"ossler system. It displays the various dynamical regimes of the system (stable or chaotic) when a parameter is varied. We choose a diagram that exhibits coexisting attractors and banded chaos. We…
We introduce a set of discrete modular transformations $T_\ell,U_\ell$ and $S_\ell$ in order to study the relationships between the different phases of the Heisenberg ladders obtained with all possible exchange coupling constants. For the 2…
2-Higgs Doublet Models (2HDMs) typically need to invoke an ad-hoc discrete symmetry to avoid severe flavor bounds and in addition feature massless neutrinos, thus falling short of naturally complying with existing data. However, when…
We obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of physical/SRB measures for asymptotically sectionally hyperbolic attracting sets with any finite co-dimension, extending the co-dimension two case. We provide examples of such attractors,…
The extended Hubbard model with an attractive density-density interaction, positive pair hopping, or both, is shown to host topological phases, with a doubly degenerate entanglement spectrum and interacting edge spins. This constitutes a…
Horndeski models with a de Sitter critical point for any kind of material content may provide a mechanism to alleviate the cosmological constant problem. Moreover, they could allow us to understand the current accelerated expansion of the…
We consider a model of two (fully) compact polymer chains, coupled through an attractive interaction. These compact chains are represented by Hamiltonian paths (HP), and the coupling favors the existence of common bonds between the chains.…
For flows, the singular cycles connecting saddle periodic orbit and saddle equilibrium can poten- tially result in the so-called singular horseshoe, which means the existence of a non-uniformly hyperbolic chaotic invariant set. However, it…
