We explore the behaviour of an ensemble of chaotic oscillators coupled only to an external chaotic system, whose intrinsic dynamics may be similar or dissimilar to the group. Counter-intuitively, we find that a dissimilar external system…
Two-fold singularities in a piecewise smooth (PWS) dynamical system in $\mathbb{R}^3$ have long been the subject of intensive investigation. The interest stems from the fact that trajectories which enter the two-fold are associated with…

We prove a version of the Poincar\'e-Bendixson theorem for certain classes of curves on the 2-sphere which are not required to be the trajectories of an underlying flow or semiflow on the sphere itself. Using this result we extend the…

We introduce a framework to prove propagation of chaos for interacting particle systems with singular, density-dependent interactions, a classical challenge in mean-field theory. Our approach is to define the dynamics implicitly via a…
We prove disorder chaos at zero temperature for three types of diluted models with large connectivity parameter: $K$-spin antiferromagnetic Ising model for even $K\geq 2$, $K$-spin spin glass model for even $K\geq 2$, and random $K$-sat…
We examine a model system where attractors may consist of a heteroclinic cycle between chaotic sets; this `cycling chaos' manifests itself as trajectories that spend increasingly long periods lingering near chaotic invariant sets…
We use blowup to study the regularization of codimension one two-fold singularities in planar piecewise smooth (PWS) dynamical systems. We focus on singular canards, pseudo-equlibria and limit cycles that can occur in the PWS system. Using…
We investigate functions that are exact solutions to chaotic dynamical systems. A generalization of these functions can produce truly random numbers. For the first time, we present solutions to random maps. This allows us to check,…

Classical chaos arises from the inherent non-linearity of dynamical systems. However, quantum maps are linear; therefore, the definition of chaos is not straightforward. To address this, we study a quantum system that exhibits chaotic…
