Quantum speed limits provide upper bounds on the rate with which a quantum system can move away from its initial state. Here, we provide a different kind of speed limit, describing the divergence of a perturbed open system from its…

In the present paper we study slow-fast systems of coupled equations from fluid dynamics, where the fast component is perturbed by additive noise. We prove that, under a suitable limit of infinite separation of scales, the slow component of…
We examine the effects of a periodically varying flow velocity on the standing and travelling wave patterns formed by the flow-distributed oscillation (FDO) mechanism. In the kinematic (or diffusionless) limit, the phase fronts undergo a…
Uncertainty in the initial conditions of dynamical systems can cause exponentially fast divergence of trajectories, a signature of deterministic chaos. Here, we derive a classical uncertainty relation that sets a speed limit on the rates of…
The limiting slow dynamics of slow-fast, piecewise-linear, continuous systems of ODEs occurs on critical manifolds that are piecewise-linear. At points of non-differentiability, such manifolds are not normally hyperbolic and so the…
A general approach to a broad class of asymptotic problems related to long-time influence of small perturbations, of both deterministic and stochastic type, is presented in the paper. The main characteristic of this influence is a limiting…
This paper extends the discriminant associated to second order linear constant coefficient differential equations to general second order linear differential equations. The main result of this paper is that the discriminant of a second…
Sequences diverge either because they head off to infinity or because they oscillate. Part 1 \cite{Part1} of this paper laid the pure mathematics groundwork by defining Archimedean classes of infinite numbers as limits of smooth sequences.…
Hazard functions play a central role in survival analysis, providing insight into the underlying risk dynamics of time-to-event data, with broad applications in medicine, epidemiology, and related fields. First-order ordinary differential…
Recently, complex horizontal patterns of umbral oscillations have been reported, but their physical nature and origin are still not fully understood. Here we show that the two-dimensional patterns of umbral oscillations of slow waves are…
In this paper we provide a thorough, rigorous theoretical framework to assess optimality guarantees of sampling-based algorithms for drift control systems: systems that, loosely speaking, can not stop instantaneously due to momentum. We…
The classical dynamics of a particle that is driven by a rapidly oscillating potential (with frequency $\omega$) is studied. The motion is separated into a slow part and a fast part that oscillates around the slow part. The motion of the…
In this paper, we provide a novel contraction-theoretic approach to analyze two-time scale systems, including those commonly encountered in Online Feedback Optimization (OFO). Our framework endows these systems with several robustness…
This paper studies the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of a differential equation perturbed by a fast flow preserving an infinite measure. This question is related with limit theorems for non-stationary Birkhoff integrals. We…
We study the Dirichlet problem for a second order linear elliptic equation in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \ge 3$, with the drift $\mathbf{b} $ belonging to the critical weak space $L^{n,\infty}(\Omega )$. We…
An autonomous system of ordinary differential equations in the plane with a centre-saddle bifurcation is considered. The influence of time damped perturbations with power-law asymptotics is investigated. The particular solutions tending at…
In multi-phase fluid flow, fluid-structure interaction, and other applications, partial differential equations (PDEs) often arise with discontinuous coefficients and singular sources (e.g., Dirac delta functions). These complexities arise…
We consider an abstract evolution equation with linear damping, a nonlinear term of Duffing type, and a small forcing term. The abstract problem is inspired by some models for damped oscillations of a beam subject to external loads or…
We perform an asymptotic analysis of general particle systems arising in collective behavior in the limit of large self-propulsion and friction forces. These asymptotics impose a fixed speed in the limit, and thus a reduction of the…
