In the edge-2star model with hard constraints we prove the existence of an open set of constraint parameters, bisected by a line segment on which there are nonunique entropy-optimal graphons related by a symmetry. At each point in the open…

A boundary equilibrium bifurcation (BEB) in a hybrid dynamical system occurs when a regular equilibrium collides with a switching surface in phase space. This causes a transition to a pseudo-equilibrium embedded within the switching…

We give a visual construction of stable maps from the $3$-sphere into the real plane enjoying the following properties; the set of definite fold points coincides with a given two-bridge link and the map only admits certain types of fibers…

We prove two theorems which allow one to recognize indecomposable subcontinua of closed surfaces without boundary. If $X$ is a subcontinuum of a closed surface $S$, we call the components of $S \setminus X$ the complementary domains of $X$.…

A map which is non-orientable or has non-empty boundary has a canonical double cover which is orientable and has empty boundary. The map is called stable if every automorphism of this cover is a lift of an automorphism of the map. This note…

In this paper we investigate the crossing-sliding bifurcations of planar Filippov systems with $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetry. Such bifurcations are triggered by the perturbations of a critical crossing cycle and constitute an important class of…

This Letter outlines 20 geometric mechanisms by which limit cycles are created locally in two-dimensional piecewise-smooth systems of ODEs. These include boundary equilibrium bifurcations of hybrid systems, Filippov systems, and continuous…

For a family of functionals defined on a Hilbert manifold and smoothly depending on a compact finite dimensional manifold, we give a sufficient condition on the parameter space in such a way the family bifurcate from the trivial branch.

We introduce a new map between configuration spaces of points in a background manifold - the replication map - and prove that it is a homology isomorphism in a range with certain coefficients. This is particularly of interest when the…

We discuss the transition paths in a coupled bistable system consisting of interacting multiple identical bistable motifs. We propose a simple model of coupled bistable gene circuits as an example, and show that its transition paths are…

The H^2-regularity of variational solutions to a two-dimensional transmission problem with geometric constraint is investigated, in particular when part of the interface becomes part of the outer boundary of the domain due to the saturation…

We study a problem modelling segregation of an arbitrary number of competing species in planar domains. The solutions give rise to a well known free boundary problem with the domain partitioning itself into subdomains occupied by different…

Let $\pi$ be a group satisfying the Farrell-Jones conjecture and assume that $B\pi$ is a 4-dimensional Poincar\'e duality space. We consider topological, closed, connected manifolds with fundamental group $\pi$ whose canonical map to $B\pi$…

We prove that a "positive probability" subset of the boundary of the set of hyperbolic (Axiom A) surface diffeomorphisms with no cycles $\mathcal{H}$ is constituted by Kupka-Smale diffeomorphisms: all periodic points are hyperbolic and…

We study how to construct explicit deformations of generic smooth maps from closed $n$--dimensional manifolds $M$ with $n \geq 2$ to the $2$--sphere $S^2$ and show that every smooth map $M \to S^2$ is homotopic to a $C^\infty$ stable map…

In this paper we study the Lyapunov stability and the Hopf bifurcation in a system coupling an hexagonal centrifugal governor with a steam engine. Here are given sufficient conditions for the stability of the equilibrium state and of the…

We study biharmonic maps between conformally compact manifolds, a large class of complete manifolds with bounded geometry, asymptotically negative curvature, and smooth compactification. These metrics provide a far-reaching generalization…

Double Hopf bifurcation analysis can be used to reveal some complicated dynamical behavior in a dynamical system, such as the existence or coexistence of periodic orbits, quasi-periodic orbits, or even chaos. In this paper, an algorithm for…

In this paper we consider a one dimensional liner piecewise-smooth discontinuous map. It is well known that stable periodic orbits exist in this type of map for a specific parameter region. It is also known that the corresponding…
