Many dynamical systems of different complexity, e.g. 1D logistic map, the Lorentz equations, or real phenomena, like turbulent convection, show chaotic behaviour. Despite huge differences, the dynamical scenarios for these systems are…
We consider a version of the Vlasov equation on the circle under a periodic potential $V(x,t)$ and a repulsing smooth interaction $W$. We suppose that the Lagrangian for the single particle has chaotic orbits; using Aubry-Mather theory and…

To determine the regular or chaotic nature of the orbits in dynamical systems can be quite an issue. In this article, following Vozikis et al. (2000), we propose a new tool, namely, the Power Spectrum Indicator (PSI), $\psi^2$, that enables…
Extracting reliable indicators of chaos from a single experimental time series is a challenging task, in particular, for systems with many degrees of freedom. The techniques available for this purpose often require unachievably long time…
We present exact, explicit, convergent periodic-orbit expansions for individual energy levels of regular quantum graphs. One simple application is the energy levels of a particle in a piecewise constant potential. Since the classical ray…
