Model uncertainties and simulation uncertainties occur in mathematical modeling of multiscale complex systems, since some mechanisms or scales are not represented (i.e., "unresolved") due to lack in our understanding of these mechanisms or…
We propose a theory of deterministic chaos for discrete systems, based on their representations in binary state spaces $ \Omega $, homeomorphic to the space of symbolic dynamics. This formalism is applied to neural networks and cellular…

It is well known that chaotic dynamic systems (such as three-body system, turbulent flow and so on) have the sensitive dependence on initial conditions (SDIC). Unfortunately, numerical noises (such as truncation error and round-off error)…
The identification of the governing equations of chaotic dynamical systems from data has recently emerged as a hot topic. While the seminal work by Brunton et al. reported proof-of-concepts for idealized observation setting for…
Nonlinear (systems of) ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are common tools in the analysis of complex one-dimensional dynamic systems. In this paper we propose a smoothing approach regularized by a quasilinearized ODE-based penalty in…
Motivated by applications to mathematical biology, we study the averaging problem for slow-fast systems, {\em in the case in which the fast dynamics is a stochastic process with multiple invariant measures}. We consider both the case in…
Systems whose time evolutions are entirely deterministic can nevertheless be studied probabilistically, i.e. in terms of the evolution of probability distributions rather than individual trajectories. This approach is central to the…
