We introduce amorphic complexity as a new topological invariant that measures the complexity of dynamical systems in the regime of zero entropy. Its main purpose is to detect the very onset of disorder in the asymptotic behaviour. For…
One of the key challenges in the dimension theory of smooth dynamical systems is in establishing whether or not the Hausdorff, lower and upper box dimensions coincide for invariant sets. For sets invariant under conformal dynamics, these…
This paper discusses the thermodynamic properties for certain time-dependent dynamical systems. In particular, we are interested in time-dependent dynamical systems with the specification property. We show that each time-dependent dynamical…
Standard dynamical systems theory is centred around the coordinate-invariant asymptotic-time properties of autonomous systems. We identify three limitations of this approach. Firstly, we discuss how the traditional approach cannot take into…
We study discrete dynamical systems through the topological concepts of limit set, which consists of all points that can be reached arbitrarily late, and asymptotic set, which consists of all adhering values of orbits. In particular, we…
A degenerate dynamical system is characterized by a state-dependent multiplier of the time derivative of the state in the time evolution equation. It can give rise to Hamiltonian systems whose symplectic structure possesses a non-constant…
We study the set of irregular points for topologically mixing subshifts of finite type. It is well known that despite the irregular set having zero measure for every invariant measure, it has full topological entropy and full Hausdorff…
Preliminary results of our investigations on solving indefinite qua\-dra\-tic programs by dynamical systems are given. First, dynamical systems corresponding to two fundamental DC programming algorithms to deal with indefinite quadratic…
In aperiodic order, non-periodic but "ordered" objects such as tilings, Delone sets, functions and measures are investigated. In this article we depict the common structure of these objects by using the general framework of abstract pattern…
Let $(X,f_{1,\infty})$ be a nonautonomous dynamical system. In this paper we summarize known definitions of periodic points for general nonautonomous dynamical systems and propose a new, very natural, definition of asymptotic periodicity.…
The long-term dynamics of many dynamical systems evolve on an attracting, invariant "slow manifold" that can be parameterized by a few observable variables. Yet a simulation using the full model of the problem requires initial values for…
For any $C^1$ diffeomorphism on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold that admits an ergodic measure with positive entropy, a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension for the local stable and unstable sets is given in terms of the…
Invariant manifolds provide the geometric structures for describing and understanding dynamics of nonlinear systems. The theory of invariant manifolds for both finite and infinite dimensional autonomous deterministic systems, and for…
Continuous attractors offer a unique class of solutions for storing continuous-valued variables in recurrent system states for indefinitely long time intervals. Unfortunately, continuous attractors suffer from severe structural instability…
Continuous limits of discrete systems with long-range interactions are considered. The map of discrete models into continuous medium models is defined. A wide class of long-range interactions that give the fractional equations in the…
This paper is partly an exposition, and partly an extension of our work [1] to the multiparameter case. We consider certain classes of parametrized dynamically defined measures. These are push-forwards, under the natural projection, of…
In this paper, we study the topological entropy and the Hausdorff dimension of a shrinking target set. We give lower and upper bounds of topological entropy and Hausdorff dimension for dynamical systems with exponential specification…
Let $\Lambda$ be a countable index set and $S=\{\phi_i: i\in \Lambda\}$ be a conformal iterated function system on $[0,1]^d$ satisfying the open set condition. Denote by $J$ the attractor of $S$. With each sequence $(w_1,w_2,...)\in…
We consider the problem of proving that each point in a given set of states ("target set") can indeed be reached by a given nondeterministic continuous-time dynamical system from some initial state. We consider this problem for abstract…
We investigate projections to odometers (group rotations over adic groups) of topological invertible dynamical systems with discrete time and compact Hausdorff phase space. For a dynamical system $(X, f)$ with a compact phase space we…
