From a scale analysis of hydrodynamic phenomena having a significant action on the drift of an object in coastal ocean waters, we deduce equations modeling the associated hydrodynamic fields over a time period of several weeks. These models…
Non-autonomous dynamical systems help us to understand the implications of real systems which are in contact with their environment as it actually occurs in nature. Here, we focus on systems where a parameter changes with time at small but…
Suppose that an equilibrium is asymptotically stable when external inputs vanish. Then, every bounded trajectory which corresponds to a control which approaches zero and which lies in the domain of attraction of the unforced system, must…
We consider $n\times n$ real-valued matrices $A = (a_{ij})$ satisfying $a_{ii} \geq a_{i,i+1} \geq \dots \geq a_{in} \geq a_{i1} \geq \dots \geq a_{i,i-1}$ for $i = 1,\dots,n$. With such a matrix $A$ we associate a directed graph $G(A)$. We…
This work is devoted to examining qualitative properties of dynamic systems, in particular, limit cycles of stochastic differential equations with both rapid switching and small diffusion. The systems are featured by multi-scale…
The wave equation with energy critical sources and nonlinear damping defined on a 3D bounded domain is considered. It is shown that the resulting dynamical system admits a global attractor. Under the additional assumption of strong…
The equation of the Van der Pol oscillator, being characterized by a dissipative term, is non-Lagrangian. Appending an additional degree of freedom we bring the equation in the frame of action principle and thus introduce a one-way coupled…
We consider admissible weak solutions to the compressible Euler system with source terms, which include rotating shallow water system and the Euler system with damping as special examples. In the case of anti-symmetric sources such as…
The property that a Jacobi matrix is reflectionless is usually characterized either in terms of Weyl m-functions or the vanishing of the real part of the boundary values of the diagonal matrix elements of the resolvent. We introduce a…
We consider a flip dynamics for directed (1+d)-dimensional lattice paths with length L. The model can be interpreted as a higher dimensional version of the simple exclusion process, the latter corresponding to the case d=1. We prove that…
We propose a purely data-driven model predictive control (MPC) scheme to control unknown linear time-invariant systems with guarantees on stability and constraint satisfaction in the presence of noisy data. The scheme predicts future…
Mirror descent is a well established tool for solving convex optimization problems with convex constraints. This article introduces continuous-time mirror descent dynamics for approximating optimal Markov controls for stochastic control…
New sufficient conditions for the characterization of dwell-times for linear impulsive systems are proposed and shown to coincide with continuous decrease conditions of a certain class of looped-functionals, a recently introduced type of…
We introduce in this paper a new approach to the problem of the convergence to equilibrium for kinetic equations. The idea of the approach is to prove a 'weak' coercive estimate, which implies exponential or polynomial convergence rate. Our…
To make predictions or design control, information on local sensitivity of initial conditions and state-space contraction is both central, and often instrumental. However, it is not always simple to reliably determine instability fields or…
We prove uniform hyperbolicity of the renormalization operator for all possible real combinatorial types. We derive from it that the set of infinitely renormalizable parameter values in the real quadratic family $P_c: x\mapsto x^2+c$ has…
Some metric and graphical regularity properties of generalized constraint systems are investigated. Then, these properties are applied in order to penalize (in the sense of Clarke) various scalar and vector optimization problems. This…
We study the number of visits to balls B_r(x), up to time t/mu(B_r(x)), for a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems, where mu is the SRB measure. Outside a set of `bad' centers x, we prove that this number is approximately…
We establish a topological criterion for connection between reducibility to constant rotations and dual localization, for the general family of analytic quasiperiodic Jacobi operators. As a corollary, we obtain the sharp arithmetic phase…
In this work, we address the problem of identifying sparse continuous-time dynamical systems when the spacing between successive samples (the sampling period) is not constant over time. The proposed approach combines the…
