In 1982, Marshall P. Tulin published a report proposing a framework for reducing the equations for gravity waves generated by moving bodies into a single nonlinear differential equation solvable in closed form [Proc. 14th Symp. on Naval…

In this paper we introduce a model describing diffusion of species by a suitable regularization of a "forward-backward" parabolic equation. In particular, we prove existence and uniqueness of solutions, as well as continuous dependence on…

In this work we obtain mixing (and in some cases sharp mixing rates) for a reasonable large class of invertible systems preserving an infinite measure. The examples considered here are the invertible analogue of both Markov and non Markov…

Solving parabolic optimal control problems can be inherently challenging in the field of science and engineering, especially with constraints on the nonsmooth distributed control. Motivated by the extensive applicability of the alternating…

We review previous results providing sufficient conditions to determine the global dynamics for equivariant maps of the plane with a unique fixed point which is also hyperbolic.

We investigate the relation between the backward uniqueness and the regularity of the coefficients for a parabolic operator. A necessary and sufficient condition for uniqueness is given in terms of the modulus of continuity of the…

This is an introduction of a book called "strong regularity", to appear at Ast\'erisque, containing: 1) Yoccoz' proof of Jakobson theorem www.college-de-france.fr/media/jean-christophe-yoccoz/UPL7416254474776698194_Jakobson_jcy.pdf 2)…

In many strongly-coupled systems, the infrared dynamics is described by different degrees of freedom from the ultraviolet. It is then natural to ask how operators written in terms of the microscopic variables are mapped to operators…

Diffraction is one of the universal phenomena of physics, and a way to overcome it has always represented a challenge for physicists. In order to control diffraction, the study of structured waves has become decisive. Here, we present a…

In dynamical systems, it is advantageous to identify regions of flow which can exhibit maximal influence on nearby behaviour. Hyperbolic Lagrangian Coherent Structures have been introduced to obtain two-dimensional surfaces which maximise…

We study the boundaries of non-univalent simply connected Baker domains of transcendental maps (both entire and meromorphic), of hyperbolic and simply parabolic type. We prove non-ergodicity and non-recurrence for the boundary map, and…

We will consider iteration of an analytic self-map $f$ of the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^N$. Many facts were established about such dynamics in the 1-dimensional case (i.e. for self-maps of the unit disk), and we will generalize some of them…

Here, Darboux's classical results about transformations with differential substitutions for hyperbolic equations are extended to the case of parabolic equations of the form $L u = \big(D^2_{x} + a(x,y) D_x + b(x,y) D_y + c(x,y)\big)u=0$. We…

This is a lightning introduction to some modern techniques used in the study of the statistical properties of hyperbolic dynamical systems. The emphasis is not in presenting a comprehensive theory but rather in fleshing out the main ideas…

We study the motion of a particle in the hyperbolic plane (embedded in Minkowski space), under the action of a potential that depends only on one variable. This problem is the analogous to the spherical pendulum in a unidirectional force…

This article proposes a novel methodology to learn a stable robot control law driven by dynamical systems. The methodology requires a single demonstration and can deduce a stable dynamics in arbitrary high dimensions. The method relies on…

In [M3], Milnor found Tricorn-like sets in the parameter space of real cubic polynomials. We give a rigorous definition of these Tricorn-like sets as suitable renormalization loci, and show that the dynamically natural straightening map…

Propagation of elastic waves in damaged media (concrete, rocks) is studied theoretically and numerically. Such materials exhibit a nonlinear behavior, with long-time softening and recovery processes (slow dynamics). A constitutive model…
