We consider here quasiperiodic potentials on the plane, which can serve as a "transitional link" between ordered (periodic) and chaotic (random) potentials. As can be shown, in almost any family of quasiperiodic potentials depending on a…
A Hamiltonian dynamics defined on the two-dimensional hyperbolic plane by coupling the Morse and Rosen-Morse potentials is analyzed. It is demonstrated that orbits of all bounded motions are closed iff the product of the parameter $\tilde…
Equilibrium phase transitions usually emerge from the microscopic behavior of many-body systems and are associated to interesting phenomena such as the generation of long-range order and spontaneous symmetry breaking. They can be defined…
On the basis of extensive numerical studies it is argued that there are strong analogies between the probabilistic behavior of quantum systems defined by Hermitian Hamiltonians and the deterministic behavior of classical mechanical systems…
Hamiltonian theory of hybrid quantum-classical systems is used to study dynamics of the classical subsystem coupled to different types of quantum systems. It is shown that the qualitative properties of orbits of the classical subsystem…
A hierarchical ordering is demonstrated for the periodic orbits in a strongly coupled multidimensional Hamiltonian system, namely the hydrogen atom in crossed electric and magnetic fields. It mirrors the hierarchy of broken resonant tori…
The kinetic energy term of Hamiltonian systems with balanced loss and gain is not semi-positive-definite, leading to instabilities at the classical as well quantum level. It is shown that an additional Lorentz interaction in the Hamiltonian…
We give examples of quasi-hyperbolic dynamical systems with the following properties : polynomial decay of correlations, convergence in law toward a non gaussian law of the ergodic sums (divided by $n^{3/4}$) associated to non degenerated…
The {\it curvature} and the {\it reduced curvature} are basic differential invariants of the pair: (Hamiltonian system, Lagrange distribution) on the symplectic manifold. We show that negativity of the curvature implies that any bounded…
The electron motion in rather strong magnetic fields (when only the lowest Landau level is populated) is considered. In this case the electron kinetic energy is frozen out and the electrons are guided by slowly varied potential. Using the…
In open Hamiltonian systems, the escape from a bounded region of phase space according to an exponential decay law is frequently associated with the existence of hyperbolic dynamics in such a region. Furthermore, exponential decay laws…
We prove that for a wide family of non-uniformly hyperbolic maps and hyperbolic potentials we have equilibrium stability, i.e. the equilibrium states depend continuously on the dynamics and the potential. For this we deduce that the…
The specification of energy for gravitating systems has been an unsettled issue since Einstein proposed his pseudotensor. It is now understood that energy-momentum is \emph{quasi-local} (associated with a closed 2-surface). Here we consider…
We consider quantum dynamics of systems with fast spatial modulation of the Hamiltonian. Employing the formalism of supersymmetric quantum mechanics and decoupling fast and slow spatial oscillations we demonstrate that the effective…
In this paper we show that, under certain generic conditions, billiards on ovals have only a finite number of periodic orbits, for each period, all non-degenerate and at least one of them is hyperbolic. Moreover, the invariant curves of two…
We consider magnetic Tonelli Hamiltonian systems on the cotangent bundle of the 2-sphere, where the magnetic form is not necessarily exact. It is known that, on very low and on high energy levels, these systems may have only finitely many…
In this work, applying general results from averaging theory, we find periodic orbits for a class of Hamiltonian systems $H$ whose potential models the motion of elliptic galaxies.
Starting from a non-local version of the Prigogine-Herman traffic model, we derive a natural hierarchy of kinetic discrete velocity models for traffic flow consisting of systems of quasi-linear hyperbolic equations with relaxation terms.…
We study a class of slow-fast Hamiltonian systems with any finite number of degrees of freedom, but with at least one slow one and two fast ones. At $% \epsilon =0$ the slow dynamics is frozen. We assume that the frozen system (i.e. the…
Diffusion is a central phenomenon in almost all fields of natural science revealing microscopic processes from the observation of macroscopic dynamics. Here, we consider the paradigmatic system of a single atom diffusing in a periodic…
