Bistability is a ubiquitous phenomenon in life sciences. In this paper, two kinds of bistable structures in dynamical systems are studied: One is two one-point attractors, another is a one-point attractor accompanied by a cycle attractor.…

In the theory of renormalization for classical dynamical systems, e.g. unimodal maps and critical circle maps, topological conjugacy classes are stable manifolds of renormalization. Physically more realistic systems on the other hand may…

We introduce a general framework for analysing general probabilistic theories, which emphasises the distinction between the dynamical and probabilistic structures of a system. The dynamical structure is the set of pure states together with…

Pendulums are simple mechanical systems that have been studied for centuries and exhibit many aspects of modern dynamical systems theory. In particular, the double pendulum is a prototypical chaotic system that is frequently used to…

We establish a natural duality between the category of involutive bisemilattices and the category of semilattice inverse systems of Stone spaces, using Stone duality from one side and the representation of involutive bisemilattices as…

Inspired by classic work of Wallman and more recent work of Jung-Kegelmann-Moshier and Vickers, we show how to encode general subbases of stably locally compact spaces via certain entailment relations. We further build this up to a…

This is a survey on selected developments in the theory of natural dualities where the author had the opportunity to make with his foreign colleagues several breakthroughs and move the theory forward. It is aimed as author's reflection on…

For a continuous flow on a compact metric space, the aim of this paper is to prove a Conley-type decomposition of the strong chain recurrent set. We first discuss in details the main properties of strong chain recurrent sets. We then…

The topological method for the reconstruction of dynamics from time series [K. Mischaikow, M. Mrozek, J. Reiss, A. Szymczak. Construction of Symbolic Dynamics from Experimental Time Series, Physical Review Letters, 82 (1999), 1144-1147] is…

We extend Stone duality to a fully faithful embedding of condensed sets into fpqc sheaves over an arbitrary field, which preserves colimits and finite limits. We study how familiar notions from condensed mathematics/topology and algebraic…

This paper presents a new canonical duality methodology for solving general nonlinear dynamical systems. Instead of the conventional iterative methods, the discretized nonlinear system is first formulated as a global optimization problem…

In traditional semantics for classical logic and its extensions, such as modal logic, propositions are interpreted as subsets of a set, as in discrete duality, or as clopen sets of a Stone space, as in topological duality. A point in such a…

Doubly diffusive convection is considered in a vertical slot where horizontal temperature and solutal variations provide competing effects to the fluid density while allowing the existence of a conduction state. In this configuration, the…

While compactness is an essential assumption for many results in dynamical systems theory, for many applications the state space is only locally compact. Here we provide a general theory for compactifying such systems, i.e. embedding them…

Over the past years a theory of conjugate duality for set-valued functions that map into the set of upper closed subsets of a preordered topological vector space was developed. For scalar duality theory, continuity of convex functions plays…

We consider the possibility that classical dynamical systems display motion in their lowest energy state, forming a time analogue of crystalline spatial order. Challenges facing that idea are identified and overcome. We display arbitrary…

In order to better understand the structure of quantum theory, or speculate about theories that may supercede it, it can be helpful to consider alternative physical theories. ``Boxworld'' describes one such theory, in which all…

We extend Yosida's 1941 version of Stone-Gelfand duality to metrically complete unital lattice-ordered groups that are no longer required to be real vector spaces. This calls for a generalised notion of compact Hausdorff space whose points…

There are many examples of dualities between topological spaces and algebras in the literature. Particularly, many of those examples come from the algebraic counterpart of a logical system, e.g, boolean and heyting algebras, MV-algebras,…

In this thesis we propose and study a theory of ordered locales, a type of point-free space equipped with a preorder structure on its frame of opens. It is proved that the Stone-type duality between topological spaces and locales lifts to a…
