Using direct numerical simulation we study the behavior of the maximal Lyapunov exponent in thin-layer turbulence, where one dimension of the system is constrained geometrically. Such systems are known to exhibit transitions from fully…
Every irreducible discrete-time linear switching system possesses an invariant convex Lyapunov function (Barabanov norm), which provides a very refined analysis of trajectories. Until recently that notion remained rather theoretical apart…

We show that for any positive integer $d$, there are families of switched linear systems---in fixed dimension and defined by two matrices only---that are stable under arbitrary switching but do not admit (i) a polynomial Lyapunov function…
The aim of this paper is to introduce a class of Hamiltonian autonomous systems in dimension 4 which are completely integrable and their dynamics is described in all details. They have an equilibrium point which is stable for some rare…
A general method to determine covariant Lyapunov vectors in both discrete- and continuous-time dynamical systems is introduced. This allows to address fundamental questions such as the degree of hyperbolicity, which can be quantified in…
For a fast particle moving within a two-dimensional array of soft scatterers - centers of weak and short-range potential - the dependence of the Lyapunov exponent on the system parameters is studied. The use of the linearized equations for…
We consider a simple model for multidimensional cone-wise linear dynamics around cusp-like equilibria. We assume that the local linear evolution is either $\mathbf{v}^\prime=\mathbb{A}\mathbf{v}$ or $\mathbb{B}\mathbf{v}$ (with…
We explore the concept of metastability in random dynamical systems, focussing on connections between random Perron-Frobenius operator cocycles and escape rates of random maps, and on topological entropy of random shifts of finite type. The…
We study the problem of estimating the maximal Lyapunov exponent of dominated cocycles. In particular we are concerned with cocycles over Gibbs states on shifts of finite type for which both the function defining the cocycle and the…
We compute the full Lyapunov spectra for a hard-disk fluid under temperature gradient and shear. The system is thermalized by deterministic and time-reversible scattering at the boundary. This thermostating mechanism allows for energy…
In the article$^a$, the authors introduced a time-varying Lyapunov function for the stability analysis of nonlinear systems whose motion is governed by standard Newton-Euler equations. The authors established asymptotic stability with the…
This article presents tools for the design of control laws inducing robust controlled forward invariance of a set for hybrid dynamical systems modeled as hybrid inclusions. A set has the robust controlled forward invariance property via a…
Bochi-Katok-Rodriguez Hertz proposed in [BKH21] a program on the flexibility of Lyapunov exponents for conservative Anosov diffeomorphisms, and obtained partial results in this direction. For conservative Anosov diffeomorphisms with strong…
In this work, we study finite-time stability of switched and hybrid systems in the presence of unstable modes. We present sufficient conditions in terms of multiple Lyapunov functions for the origin of the system to be finite time stable.…
We provide general methods for explicitly constructing strict Lyapunov functions for fully nonlinear slowly time-varying systems. Our results apply to cases where the given dynamics and corresponding frozen dynamics are not necessarily…
Linear systems governed by continuous-time difference equations cover a wide class of linear systems. From the Lyapunov-Krasovskii approach, we investigate stability for such a class of systems. Sufficient conditions, and in some particular…
We consider the problem of constructing Lyapunov functions for linear differential equations with delays. For such systems it is known that exponential stability implies the existence of a positive Lyapunov function which is quadratic on…
We consider the top Lyapunov exponent associated to a dissipative linear evolution equation posed on a separable Hilbert or Banach space. In many applications in partial differential equations, such equations are often posed on a scale of…
We prove that for every discrete-time linear switching system in two complex variables and with finitely many switching states, either the system is Lyapunov stable or there exists a trajectory which escapes to infinity with at least linear…
