It follows from Oseledec Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem (or Kingmans Subadditional Ergodic Theorem) that the Lyapunov-irregular set of points for which the Oseledec averages of a given continuous cocycle diverge has zero measure with…
We study the dynamics of a transformation that acts on infinite paths in the graph associated with Pascal's triangle. For each ergodic invariant measure the asymptotic law of the return time to cylinders is given by a step function. We…
The paper considers one-dimensional flows of polytropic (calorically ideal) gas. These flows include three cases of gas dynamics: plain one-dimensional flows (one-dimensional space), radially symmetric flows in two-dimensional space and…
We consider the billiard dynamics in a non-compact set of R^d that is constructed as a bi-infinite chain of translated copies of the same d-dimensional polytope. A random configuration of semi-dispersing scatterers is placed in each copy.…
We consider non-adiabatic transitions in multiple dimensions, which occur when the Born-Oppenheimer approximation breaks down. We present a general, multi-dimensional algorithm which can be used to accurately and efficiently compute the…
There exists a $C^2$-open and $C^1$-dense subset of vector fields exhibiting singular-hyperbolic attracting sets (with codimension-two stable bundle), in any $d$-dimensional compact manifold ($d\ge3$), which mix exponentiallu with respect…
Using direct numerical simulation we study the behavior of the maximal Lyapunov exponent in thin-layer turbulence, where one dimension of the system is constrained geometrically. Such systems are known to exhibit transitions from fully…
One-dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations are derived to describe the axial effective dynamics of cigar-shaped atomic repulsive Bose-Einstein condensates trapped with anharmonic transverse potentials. The accuracy of these equations…
Let $\mathcal{M}=\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}^{d+1}$ be a geometrically finite hyperbolic manifold with critical exponent exceeding $d/2$. We obtain a precise asymptotic expansion of the matrix coefficients for the geodesic flow in…
The three-dimensional SU(3) spin model is an effective Polyakov loop model for QCD at nonzero temperature and density. It suffers from a sign problem at nonzero chemical potential. We revisit this model using complex Langevin dynamics and…
A study of rational maps of the real or complex projective plane of degree two or more, concentrating on those which map an elliptic curve onto itself, necessarily by an expanding map. We describe relatively simple examples with a rich…
Let $M$ be a closed $3$-dimensional Riemann manifold and let $3\le r\le \infty$. We prove that there exists an open dense subset in the space of $C^r$ volume-preserving Anosov flows on $M$ such that all the flows in it are exponentially…
Sufficient conditions characterizing the asymptotic stability and the hybrid $L_1/\ell_1$-gain of linear positive impulsive systems under minimum and range dwell-time constraints are obtained. These conditions are stated as…
We introduce the concept of a "transitory" dynamical system---one whose time-dependence is confined to a compact interval---and show how to quantify transport between two-dimensional Lagrangian coherent structures for the Hamiltonian case.…
We prove the absence of anomalous dissipation for passive scalars driven by some random autonomous divergence-free vector fields in $\mathbb T^d$. In dimension $d=2$ we just need continuity almost surely and a mild nondegeneracy condition…
In his seminal work \cite{Ri96}, Rivin characterized finite ideal polyhedra in three-dimensional hyperbolic space. However, the characterization of infinite ideal polyhedra, as proposed by Rivin, has remained a long-standing open problem.…
Nondegenerate periodic orbits in three-dimensional Reeb flows can be classified into three types, positive hyperbolic, negative hyperbolic and elliptic. As a problem which involves refining the three-dimensional Weinstein conjecture, D.…
We consider laminar flow in channels constrained geometrically to remain between two parallel planes; this geometry is typical of microchannels obtained with a single step by current microfabrication techniques. For pressure-driven Stokes…
We calculate the diffusion coefficients of persistent random walks on cubic and hypercubic lattices, where the direction of a walker at a given step depends on the memory of one or two previous steps. These results are then applied to study…
We consider transport in a fluid flow of arbitrary complexity but with a dominant flow direction. This is the situation encountered, for example, when analyzing the dynamics of sufficiently small particles immersed in a turbulent fluid and…
