In this paper, we study the stability problem of a stochastic, nonlinear, discrete-time system. We introduce a linear transfer operator-based Lyapunov measure as a new tool for stability verification of stochastic systems. Weaker…

We numerically calculate, at the edge of chaos, the time evolution of the nonextensive entropic form $S_q \equiv [1-\sum_{i=1}^W p_i^q]/[q-1]$ (with $S_1=-\sum_{i=1}^Wp_i \ln p_i$) for two families of one-dimensional dissipative maps,…
The different time-dependent distances of two arbitrarily close quantum or classical-statistical states to a third fixed state are shown to imply an experimentally relevant notion of state sensitivity to initial conditions. A quantitative…
Weak chaos in high-dimensional conservative systems can be characterized through sticky effect induced by invariant structures on chaotic trajectories. Suitable quantities for this characterization are the higher cummulants of the finite…
Non-extensive systems do not allow to go to the thermodynamic limit. Therefore we have to reformulate statistical mechanics without invoking the thermodynamical limit. I.e. we have to go back to Pre-Gibbsian times. We show that Boltzmann's…
We consider stability in a class of random non-linear dynamical systems characterised by a relaxation rate together with a Gaussian random vector field which is white-in-time and spatial homogeneous and isotropic. We will show that in the…
This paper explores the observability and estimation capability of dynamical systems using predominantly relative measurements of the system's state-space variables, with minimal to no reliance on absolute measurements of these variables.…
Copositive linear Lyapunov functions are used along with dissipativity theory for stability analysis and control of uncertain linear positive systems. Unlike usual results on linear systems, linear supply-rates are employed here for…
We generate new hierarchy of many-parameter family of maps of the interval [0,1] with an invariant measure, by composition of the chaotic maps of reference [1]. Using the measure, we calculate Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy, or equivalently…
The stability of stationary solutions of first-order systems of PDE's are considered. They may include some singular geometric terms, leading to discontinuous flux and non-conservative products. Based on several examples in Fluid Mechanics,…
This article aims to investigate sufficient conditions for the stability of stochastic differential equations with a random structure, particularly in contexts involving the presence of concentration points. The proof of asymptotic…
We consider the failure of localized control in a nonlinear spatially extended system caused by extremely small amounts of noise. It is shown that this failure occurs as a result of a nonlinear instability. Nonlinear instabilities can occur…
