In this paper we study the dynamics near the equilibrium point of a family of Hamiltonian systems in the neighborhood of a $0^2 iw$ resonance. The existence of a family of periodic orbits surrounding the equilibrium is well-known and we…
In this article, we establish pinching conditions under which all weakly stable Yang-Mills connections on compact manifolds are flat. As a corollary, we provide a dimension-dependent constant $\delta(n)$ and prove that there exist no…
This paper begins to study the limiting behavior of a family of Hermitian Yang-Mills (HYM for brevity) metrics on a class of rank two slope stable vector bundles over a product of two elliptic curves with K\"ahler metrics $\omega_\epsilon$…
We consider the scalar delay differential equation $$ \dot{x}(t)=-x(t)+f_{K}(x(t-1)) $$ with a nondecreasing feedback function $f_{K}$ depending on a parameter $K$, and we verify that a saddle-node bifurcation of periodic orbits takes place…
Recently, many orbital studies in barred galaxy potentials have revealed the existence of orbits which are not trapped around x1 tree orbits, but could be potentially appropriate building blocks for bars. These findings question 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…
A special 2D initial conditions' domain of the equal-mass zero angular momentum planar three-body problem, which has been formerly studied, is analyzed to deepen the knowledge of the stability regions in it. The decay times in the domain…
We study the orbital stability of a non-zero mass, close-in circular orbit planet around an eccentric orbit binary for various initial values of the binary eccentricity, binary mass fraction, planet mass, planet semi--major axis, and planet…
Frequency responses of multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems with weak forcing and damping can be studied as perturbations from their conservative limit. Specifically, recent results show how bifurcations near resonances can be…
We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of pairs of closed orbits of a weak-mixing transitive Anosov flow whose homology classes have a fixed difference.
We present a non-perturbative study of the phase diagram of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in a five-dimensional spacetime with a compact extra dimension. The non-renormalizable theory is regularized on an anisotropic lattice and investigated…
For many years it was believed that an unstable periodic orbit with an odd number of real Floquet multipliers greater than unity cannot be stabilized by the time-delayed feedback control mechanism of Pyragus. A recent paper by Fiedler et al…
We prove that static, spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat, regular solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills equations are unstable for arbitrary gauge groups. The proof involves the following main steps. First, we show that the frequency…
In the spirit of recent work of Lamm, Malchiodi and Micallef in the setting of harmonic maps, we identify Yang-Mills connections obtained by approximations with respect to the Yang-Mills {\alpha}-energy. More specifically, we show that for…
The renormalization group equations of the Yang-Mills theory are examined in the non-critical string theory according to the framework of the holography. Under a simple ansatz for the tachyon, we could find several interesting solutions…
We prove a necessary and sufficient criterion for the exponential stability of periodic solutions of delay differential equations with large delay. We show that for sufficiently large delay the Floquet spectrum near criticality is…
We introduce the concept of 2-cyclicity for families of one-dimensional maps with a non-hyperbolic fixed point by analogy to the cyclicity for families of planar vector fields with a weak focus. This new concept is useful in order to study…
We revisit the classical Suarez-Schopf delayed oscillator. Special attention is paid to the region of linear stability in the space of parameters. By means of the theory of inertial manifolds developed in our adjacent papers, we provide…
We consider the $2+1$ dimensional Yang-Mills theory with gauge group $\text{SU}(N)$ on a flat 2-torus under twisted boundary conditions. We study the possibility of phase transitions (tachyonic instabilities) when $N$ and the volume vary…
We describe a new mechanism that triggers periodic orbits in smooth dynamical systems. To this end, we introduce the concept of hybrid bifurcations: Such bifurcations occur when a line of equilibria with an exchange point of normal…
