The dynamics of a nonequilibrium system can become complex because the system has many components (e.g., a human brain), because the system is strongly driven from equilibrium (e.g., large Reynolds-number flows), or because the system…

Two properties are needed for a classical system to be chaotic: exponential stretching and mixing. Recently, out-of-time order correlators were proposed as a measure of chaos in a wide range of physical systems. While most of the attention…
We study the spatiotemporal dynamics of random spatially distributed noninfinitesimal perturbations in one-dimensional chaotic extended systems. We find that an initial perturbation of finite size $\epsilon_0$ grows in time obeying the…
Using a new time-dependent measure, we demonstrate for the first time that each defect in a representative defect-mediated spatiotemporally chaotic system is associated with one to two degrees of dynamical freedom. Furthermore, we show that…
Using a combination of analytical and numerical techniques, we show that chaos in globally-coupled identical dynamical systems, be they dissipative or Hamiltonian, is both extensive and sub-extensive: their spectrum of Lyapunov exponents is…
We investigate the synchronization phenomenon in coupled chaotic map lattices where the couplings decay with distance following a power-law. Depending on the lattice size, the coupling strength and the range of the interactions, complete…
We introduce a ``spatial'' Lyapunov exponent to characterize the complex behavior of non chaotic but convectively unstable flow systems. This complexity is of spatial type and is due to sensitivity to the boundary conditions. We show that…
