We consider the question of exponential mixing for random dynamical systems on arbitrary compact manifolds without boundary. We put forward a robust, dynamics-based framework that allows us to construct space-time smooth, uniformly bounded…
For a one-dimensional discrete Schr\"odinger operator with a weakly coupled potential given by a strongly mixing dynamical system with power law decay of correlations, we derive for all energies including the band edges and the band center…
We study systems with periodically oscillating parameters that can give way to complex periodic or non periodic orbits. Performing the long time limit, we can define ergodic averages such as Lyapunov exponents, where a negative maximal…
We show that the existence of physical measures for $C^\infty$ smooth instances of certain partially hyperbolic dynamics, both continuous and discrete, exhibiting mixed behavior (positive and negative Lyapunov exponents) along the central…
In this paper, we prove that the ODE system $$ \begin{align*} \dot x &=\sin z+\cos y\\ \dot y &= \sin x+\cos z\\ \dot z &=\sin y + \cos x, \end{align*} $$ whose right-hand side is the Arnold-Beltrami-Childress (ABC) flow with parameters…
We present a comparison between the random motion of an adiabatic and a diathermal piston sliding in a perfect gas. In particular, their dynamical behaviour, if investigated by means of Langevin's approach, shows the amplitude of the…
We consider the density properties of divergence-free vector fields $ b \in L^1([0,1],\textit{BV}([0,1]^2)) $ which are ergodic/weakly mixing/strongly mixing: this means that their Regular Lagrangian Flow $X_t$ is an ergodic/weakly…
We consider the convergence of kinetic Langevin dynamics to its ergodic invariant measure, which is Gibbs distribution. Instead of the standard setup where the friction coefficient is a constant scalar, we investigate position-dependent…
We consider local dynamics of the dimer model (perfect matchings) on hypercubic boxes $[n]^d$. These consist of successively switching the dimers along alternating cycles of prescribed (small) lengths. We study the connectivity properties…
We discuss chaotic advection in three-dimensional unsteady incompressible laminar flow, and analyse in detail the most important novel advection phenomenon in these flows; the global dispersion of passive scalars in flows with two slow and…
The Arnold-Beltrami-Childress (ABC) flow and the Kolmogorov flow are three dimensional periodic divergence free velocity fields that exhibit chaotic streamlines. We are interested in front speed enhancement in G-equation of turbulent…
We show that the time-1 map of an Anosov flow, whose strong-unstable foliation is $C^2$ smooth and minimal, is $C^2$ close to a diffeomorphism having positive central Lyapunov exponent Lebesgue almost everywhere and a unique physical…
Universality of statistical properties of passive quantities advected by turbulent velocity fields at changing the passive forcing mechanism is discussed. In particular, we concentrate on the statistical properties of an hydrodynamic system…
Intermittent maps of the interval are simple and widely-studied models for chaos with slow mixing rates, but have been notoriously resistant to numerical study. In this paper we present an effective framework to compute many ergodic…
We extend results on robust exponential mixing for geometric Lorenz attractors, with a dense orbit and a unique singularity, to singular-hyperbolic attracting sets with any number of (either Lorenz- or non-Lorenz-like) singularities and…
We construct a piecewise onto 3-to-1 dynamical system on the positive quadrant of the unit circle, such that for rational points (which correspond to normalized Primitive Pythagorean Triples), the associated ternary expansion is finite, and…
We simulate by lattice Boltzmann the steady shearing of a binary fluid mixture with full hydrodynamics in three dimensions. Contrary to some theoretical scenarios, a dynamical steady state is attained with finite correlation lengths in all…
Steady laminar flows through porous media spontaneously generate Lagrangian chaos at pore scale, with qualitative implications for a range of transport, reactive and biological processes. The characterization and understanding of mixing…
In this manuscript, we consider finitely many maps, all of which are defined on a smooth compact measure space, with at least one map in the collection having degree strictly bigger than 1. Working with random dynamics generated by this…
We construct a time-independent, incompressible, and Lipschitz-continuous velocity field in $\mathbb{R}^3$ that generates a fast kinematic dynamo - an instability characterized by exponential growth of magnetic energy, independent of…
