We present an adaptation of a relatively simple topological argument to show the existence of many periodic orbits in an infinite dimensional dynamical system, provided that the system is close to a one-dimensional map in a certain sense.…

We prove the existence of $n$-periodic orbits for almost all $n\in\mathbb{N}$ in the R\"ossler system with attracting periodic orbit, for two sets of parameters. The proofs are computer-assisted.

We establish a Sharkovskii-type theorem for a class of discrete random dynamical systems via the random Conley index. Using the continuation property of the Conley index, we extend classical forcing results to random systems obtained from…

The paper proves two theorems concerning the set of periods of periodic orbits for maps of graphs that are homotopic to the constant map and such that the vertices form a periodic orbit. The first result is that if $v$ is not a divisor of…

Sharkovskii proved that the existence of a periodic orbit in a one-dimensional dynamical system implies existence of infinitely many periodic orbits. We obtain an analog of Sharkovskii's theorem for periodic orbits of shear homeomorphisms…

This paper introduces the notion of second minimal $n$-periodic orbit of the continuous map on the interval according as if $n$ is a successor of the minimal period of the map in Sharkovski ordering. We pursue classification of second…

Let f(x) be a continuous function from a compact real interval into itself with a periodic orbit of minimal period m, where m is not an integral power of 2. Then, by Sharkovsky's theorem, for every positive integer n with m \prec n in the…

By varying a parameter of a one-dimensional piecewise smooth map, stable periodic orbits are observed. In this paper, complete analytic characterization of these stable periodic orbits is obtained. An interesting relationship between the…

The numerical optimized shooting method for finding periodic orbits in nonlinear dynamical systems was employed to determine the existence of periodic orbits in the well-known R\"ossler system. By optimizing the period $T$ and the three…

The so-called type problem or forcing problem is considered as a way to generalize Sharkovskii's theorem. In this paper, by focusing on certain types of orbits, we obtain a solution of the type problem, which gives a refinement of…

This study analyzes the Collatz map through nonlinear dynamics. By embedding integers in Sharkovsky's ordering, we show that odd initial values suffice for full dynamical characterization. We introduce ``direction phases'' to partition…

We classify the sets of natural numbers $n$ for which certain dynamical systems $(X,f)$ on a compact metric space $X$ have a periodic point of (least) period $n$. Interest in this question dates back to Sharkovskii's theorem for continuous…

We show existence of relative periodic orbits (a.k.a. relative nonlinear normal modes) near relative equilibria of a symmetric Hamiltonian system under an appropriate assumption on the Hessian of the Hamiltonian. This gives a relative…

For a map $f:I \rightarrow I$, a point $x \in I$ is periodic with period $p \in \mathbb{N}$ if $f^p(x)=x$ and $f^j(x)\not=x$ for all $0<j<p$. When $f$ is continuous and $I$ is an interval, a theorem due to Sharkovskii (\cite{BC}) states…

This paper presents full classification of second minimal odd periodic orbits of a continuous endomorphisms on the real line. A $(2k+1)$-periodic orbit ($k\geq 3$) is called second minimal for the map $f$, if $2k-1$ is a minimal period of…

We extend the semiclassical theory of short periodic orbits [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 80}, 035202(R) (2009)] to partially open quantum maps. They correspond to classical maps where the trajectories are partially bounced back due to a finite…

In this paper we consider families of holomorphic maps defined on subsets of the complex plane, and show that the technique developed in \cite{LSvS1} to treat unfolding of critical relations can also be used to deal with cases where the…

We discuss one parameter families of unimodal maps, with negative Schwarzian derivative, unfolding a saddle-node bifurcation. It was previously shown that for a parameter set of positive Lebesgue density at the bifurcation, the maps possess…
