We will show that if a dynamical system has enough constants of motion then a Moser-Weinstein type theorem can be applied for proving the existence of periodic orbits in the case when the linearized system is degenerate.
We consider twist diffeomorphisms of the torus, $f:{\rm T^2\rightarrow T^2,}$ and their vertical rotation intervals $\rho _V(\widehat{f})=[\rho _V^{-},\rho _V^{+}],$ where $\widehat{f}$ is a lift of $f$ to the vertical annulus or cylinder.…
The well-known twenty types of 2-uniform tilings of the plane give rise infinitely many doubly semi-equivelar maps on the torus. In this article, we show that every such doubly semi-equivelar map on the torus contains a Hamiltonian cycle.…
Numerical bifurcation analysis, and in particular two-parameter continuation, is used in consort with numerical simulation to reveal complicated dynamics in the Mackey-Glass equation for moderate values of the delay close to the onset of…
We consider the classical problem of the continuation of periodic orbits surviving to the breaking of invariant lower dimensional resonant tori in nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems. In particular we extend our previous results…
We compare two formulas for the class of a generic torus orbit closure on the Grassmannian, due to Klyachko and Berget-Fink. The naturally emerging combinatorial objects are semi-standard fillings we call 1-strip-less tableaux.
We study generic two- and three-parameter unfoldings of a pair of orbits of quadratic homoclinic tangency in strongly dissipative systems. We prove that the corresponding stability windows for periodic orbits have various universal forms:…
A torus manifold is an even-dimensional manifold acted on by a half-dimensional torus with non-empty fixed point set and some additional orientation data. It may be considered as a far-reaching generalisation of toric manifolds from…
Topological phase transition is accompanied with a change of topological numbers. It has been believed that the gap closing and the breakdown of the adiabaticity at the transition point is necessary in general. However, the gap closing is…
A non-autonomous version of the standard map with a periodic variation of the parameter is introduced and studied. Symmetry properties in the variables and parameters of the map are found and used to find relations between rotation numbers…
Let $M$ be a closed manifold and consider the Hamiltonian flow associated to an autonomous Tonelli Hamiltonian $H:T^*M\rightarrow \mathbb R$ and a twisted symplectic form. In this paper we study the existence of contractible periodic orbits…
We carried out a fluid dynamical simulation for a forced dripping faucet system using a new algorithm that was recently developed. The simulation shows that periodic external forcing induces transitions from chaotic to periodic motion and…
In this paper we consider torus homeomorphisms $f$ homotopic to Dehn twists. We prove that if the vertical rotation set of $f$ is reduced to zero, then there exists a compact connected essential "horizontal" set K, invariant under $f$. In…
As was known to H. Poincare, an orientation preserving circle homeomorphism without periodic points is either minimal or has no dense orbits, and every orbit accumulates on the unique minimal set. In the first case the minimal set is the…
We describe a new mechanism that triggers periodic orbits in smooth dynamical systems. To this end, we introduce the concept of hybrid bifurcations: Such bifurcations occur when a line of equilibria with an exchange point of normal…
We prove a KAM-type result for the persistence of two-dimensional invariant tori in perturbations of integrable action-angle-angle maps with degeneracy, satisfying the intersection property. Such degenerate action-angle-angle maps arise…
We show that, for pairs of hyperbolic toral automorphisms on the $2$-torus, the points with dense forward orbits under one map and nondense forward orbits under the other is a dense, uncountable set. The pair of maps can be noncommuting. We…
The nonlinear Schr\"odinger/Gross-Pitaevskii (NLS/GP) equation is considered in the presence of three equally-spaced potentials. The problem is reduced to a finite-dimensional Hamiltonian system by a Galerkin truncation. Families of…
Fluid flows between rotating concentric cylinders exhibit two distinct routes to turbulence. In flows dominated by inner-cylinder rotation, a sequence of linear instabilities leads to temporally chaotic dynamics as the rotation speed is…
We prove that any compact K\"ahler 3-dimensional manifold which has no non-trivial complex subvarieties is a torus. This is a very special case of a general conjecture on the structure of 'simple manifolds', central in the bimeromorphic…
