Fluctuations and noise may alter the behavior of dynamical systems considerably. For example, oscillations may be sustained by demographic fluctuations in biological systems where a stable fixed point is found in the absence of noise. We…
In piecewise-smooth differential systems, a hyperbolic limit cycle of a subsystem loses its structural stability if it grazes the switching manifold at a tangent point. Such a cycle is called a grazing loop and in this paper we investigate…

A procedure to characterize chaotic dynamical systems with concepts of complex networks is pursued, in which a dynamical system is mapped onto a network. The nodes represent the regions of space visited by the system, while edges represent…

Max-plus equations are derived from tropically discretized Sel'kov model via ultradiscretization. These max-plus equations possess common dynamical structures with the discretized model: Neimark-Sacker bifurcation and limit cycles. The…
Dynamical systems, whether continuous or discrete, are used by physicists in order to study non-linear phenomena. In the case of discrete dynamical systems, one of the most used is the quadratic map depending on a parameter. However, some…
It is well-known that a holomorphic function near a repelling fixed point may be conjugated to a linear function. The function which conjugates is called a Poincar\'e linearizer and may be extended to a transcendental entire function in the…
