Using a coupled parametric-resonator array for generating and propagating a topological soliton in its rotating-frame phase space is theoretically and numerically investigated. In an analogy with the well-known phi4 model, the existence of…

Cellular automata (CA) dynamics are ordered in terms of two global parameters, computable {\sl a priori} from the description of rules. While one of them (activity) has been used before, the second one is new; it estimates the average…

We show that hydrodynamic theories of polar active matter generically possess inhomogeneous traveling solutions. We introduce a unifying dynamical-system framework to establish the shape of these intrinsically nonlinear patterns, and show…

The existence of solitons -- stable, long-lived, and localized field configurations -- is a generic prediction for ultralight dark matter. These solitons, known by various names such as boson stars, axion stars, oscillons, and Q-balls…

A beta-skeleton is a planar proximity undirected graph of an Euclidean point set where nodes are connected by an edge if their lune-based neighborhood contains no other points of the given set. Parameter $\beta$ determines size and shape of…

We show that cellular automata can classify data by inducing a form of dynamical phase coexistence. We use Monte Carlo methods to search for general two-dimensional deterministic automata that classify images on the basis of activity, the…

Electric field induced collective reorientation of nematic molecules placed between two flat parallel electrodes is of importance for both fundamental science and practical applications. This reorientation is either homogeneous over the…

We discovered generalized structures, named astrocytes due to their shape, that constitute a defined region characterizing regular behavior within the parameter plane (PP) of dynamical systems (DSs). Morphologically, they are characterized…

Solitary waves, dubbed "solitons", are special types of waves that propagate for an infinite distance under ideal conditions. These waves are ubiquitously found in nature such as typhoon or neuron signals. Yet, their artificial generation…
