We present a new chaotic system of three coupled ordinary differential equations, limited to quadratic nonlinear terms. A wide variety of dynamical regimes are reported. For some parameters, chaotic reversals of the amplitudes are produced…
This article studies the rotational dynamics of three identical coupled pendulums. There exist two parameter areas where the in-phase rotational motion is unstable and out-of-phase rotations are realized. Asymptotic theory is developed that…
In this letter, we experimentally demonstrate an efficient scheme to regulate the behaviour of coupled nonlinear oscillators through dynamic control of their interaction. It is observed that introducing intermittency in the interaction term…
I will discuss an attempt at representing an interface dynamo in a simplified, essentially 1D framework. The operation of the dynamo is broken up into two 1D layers, one containing the $\alpha$ effect and the other containing the $\omega$…
We use non-equilibrium dynamical mean-field theory to demonstrate the existence of a critical interaction in the real-time dynamics of the Hubbard model after an interaction quench. The critical point is characterized by fast thermalization…

We consider a coupling of the Stommel box model and the Lorenz model, with the goal of investigating the so-called "crises" that are known to occur given sufficient forcing. In this context, a crisis is characterized as the destruction of a…
The irregular polarity reversals of the Earth's magnetic field have attracted much interest during the last decades. Despite the fact that recent numerical simulations of the geodynamo have shown nice polarity transitions, the very reason…
Calculations for mean field dynamo models (in both full spheres and spherical shells), with both algebraic and dynamic $\alpha$--quenchings, show qualitative as well as quantitative differences and similarities in the dynamical behaviour of…
Different mechanisms for the creation of strange nonchaotic attractors (SNAs) are studied in a two-frequency parametrically driven Duffing oscillator. We focus on intermittency transitions in particular, and show that SNAs in this system…
We describe a class of fractal attractors induced by \beta-shifts. We use a coding by these shifts to show that the systems are mixing with topological entropy log \beta and have an ergodic measure of full entropy. Moreover we determine the…
