A quasi-continuous dynamical system is a pair $(X,f)$ consisting of a topological space $X$ and a mapping $f: X\to X$ such that $f^n$ is quasi-continuous for all $n \in \mathbb N$, where $\mathbb N$ is the set of non-negative integers. In…

We establish sufficient and necessary conditions for the joint transitivity of linear iterates in a minimal topological dynamical system with commuting transformations. This result provides the first topological analogue of the classical…

Binary clustering systems are closely related to monotone transit functions. An interesting class are pyramidal transit functions defined by the fact that their transit sets form an interval hypergraph. We investigate here properties of…

Conformational transitions are ubiquitous in biomolecular systems, have significant functional roles and are subject to evolutionary pressures. Here we provide a first theoretical framework for topological transition, i.e. conformational…

We prove that non-trivial homoclinic classes of $C^r$-generic flows are topologically mixing. This implies that given $\Lambda$ a non-trivial $C^1$-robustly transitive set of a vector field $X$, there is a $C^1$-perturbation $Y$ of $X$ such…

We use two truly canonical approaches to describe superconductivity in ultrasmall metallic grains: (a) a variational fixed-N projected BCS-like theory and (b) an exact solution of the model Hamiltonian developed by Richardson in context…

For a class of piecewise hyperbolic maps in two dimensions, we propose a combinatorial definition of topological entropy by counting the maximal, open, connected components of the phase space on which iterates of the map are smooth. We…

In this paper, we examine various types of ${\mathcal F}$-hypercyclic (${\mathcal F}$-topologically transitive) and disjoint ${\mathcal F}$-hypercyclic (disjoint ${\mathcal F}$-topologically transitive) properties of binary relations over…

We introduce a functor which associates to every measure preserving system (X,B,\mu,T) a topological system (C_2(\mu),\tilde{T}) defined on the space of 2-fold couplings of \mu, called the topological lens of T. We show that often the…

In this paper, we derive differential conditions guaranteeing the orbital stability of nonlinear hybrid limit cycles. These conditions are represented as a series of pointwise linear matrix inequalities (LMI), enabling the search for…

Systems whose organization displays causal asymmetry constraints, from evolutionary trees to river basins or transport networks, can be often described in terms of directed paths (causal flows) on a discrete state space. Such a set of paths…

A one-way {\em street} of width M is modeled as a set of M parallel one-dimensional TASEPs. The intersection of two perpendicular streets is a square lattice of size M times M. We consider hard core particles entering each street with an…

A contractive condition is addressed for extended 2-cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same subsets of its domain. It is…

In this paper, we propose a concept to design, track, and compare application-specific feature definitions expressed as sets of critical points. Our work has been inspired by the observation that in many applications a large variety of…

For a continuous self-map $f$ on a compact interval $I$ and the induced map $\hat f$ on the space $\mathcal{M}(I)$ of probability measures, we obtain a sharp condition to guarantee that $(I,f)$ is transitive if and only if…

A likelihood-free transport filtering method is proposed based on the couplings between state and observation variables. By exploiting a block-triangular structure in the transport map, the analysis step of filtering is reformulated as the…

A path system $\mathscr{P}$ in a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a collection of paths, with exactly one path between any two vertices in $V$. A path system is said to be consistent if it is closed under subpaths. We say that a path system $\mathscr{P}$…

To identify under what conditions guiding-centre or full-orbit tracing should be used, an estimation of the spatial variation of the magnetic field is proposed, not only taking into account gradient and curvature terms but also parallel…

Let $(X,d)$ be a metric space and $f_{1,\infty}=\{f_n\}_{i=0}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of continuous maps $f_n:X\rightarrow X$ such that $(f_n)$ converges uniformly to a continuous map $f$. We investigate which conditions ensure that the…

In previous work, we have introduced delta-forms on the Berkovich analytification of an algebraic variety in order to study smooth or formal metrics via their associated Chern delta-forms. In this paper, we investigate positivity properties…
