We discuss the appearance of chaos in time-periodic perturbations of reversible vector fields in the plane. We use the normal forms of codimension~$1$ reversible vector fields and discuss the ways a time-dependent periodic forcing term of…
A numerical study has been done of collisions between protons and hydrogen atoms, treated as classical particles, at low impact velocities. The presence of chaos has been looked for by investigating the processes with standard techniques of…
Chaos and complexity entail an entropic and computational obstruction to describing a system, and thus are intrinsically difficult to characterize. In this paper, we consider time evolution by Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) Hamiltonians…
Our main result is that chaos in dimension $n+1$ is a one-dimensional geometrical object embedded in a geometrical object of dimension $n$ which corresponds to a $n$ dimensional object which is either singular or non-singular. Our main…
This is a survey on the recent theory of chaos in partial differential equations.
The onset of chaos and the mechanism of rotational damping are studied in an exactly soluble particle-rotor model. It is shown that the degree of chaoticity as inferred from the statistical measures is closely related to the onset of…
Hypersensitivity to perturbation is a criterion for chaos based on the question of how much information about a perturbing environment is needed to keep the entropy of a Hamiltonian system from increasing. In this paper we give a brief…
The astrophysical relevance of chaos for a test particle with spin moving in Schwarzschild spacetime was the objective of \cite{Verhaaren10}. Even if the results of the study seem to be qualitatively in agreement with similar works, the…
We consider the Kirchhoff equation on tori of any dimension and we construct solutions whose Sobolev norms oscillates in a chaotic way on certain long time scales. The chaoticity is encoded in the time between oscillations of the norm,…
Disordered systems are an important class of models in statistical mechanics, having the defining characteristic that the energy landscape is a fixed realization of a random field. Examples include various models of glasses and polymers.…
A chaotic system under periodic forcing can develop a periodically visited strange attractor. We discuss simple models in which the phenomenon, quite easy to see in numerical simulations, can be completely studied analytically.
Dynamical chaos is a fundamental manifestation of gravity in astrophysical, many-body systems. The spectrum of Lyapunov exponents quantifies the associated exponential response to small perturbations. Analytical derivations of these…
We investigate the $E_g \otimes e_g$ Jahn-Teller system for the purpose to reveal the nature of quantum chaos in crystals. This system simulates the interaction between the nuclear vibrational modes and the electronic motion in non-Kramers…
Chaos in both dissipative systems and conservative systems is investigated on the approach of renormalization group. It is found that the chaos is regarded as the critical phenomenon of equilibrium statistics in phase space. The two…
We speak of chaos in quantum systems if the statistical properties of the eigenvalue spectrum coincide with predictions of random-matrix theory. Chaos is a typical feature of atomic nuclei and other self-bound Fermi systems. How can the…
Two metric perturbations in Einstein-Cartan cosmology are examined.The first case is the scalar mode perturbation of de Sitter metric in Einstein-Cartan cosmology.In this case small perturbations of de Sitter metric shows that this metric…
The chaotic hypothesis has several implications which have generated interest in the literature because of their generality and because a few exact predictions are among them. However its application to Physics problems requires attention…
Phase-coupled oscillators serve as paradigmatic models of networks of weakly interacting oscillatory units in physics and biology. The order parameter which quantifies synchronization was so far found to be chaotic only in systems with…
We present a definition of chaotic Delone set, and establish the genericity of chaos in the space of $(\epsilon,\delta)$-Delone sets for $\epsilon\geq \delta$. We also present a hyperbolic analogue of the cut-and-project method that…
The occurrence of chaos for test particles moving in a Taub-NUT spacetime with a dipolar halo perturbation is studied using Poincar\'e sections. We find that the NUT parameter (magnetic mass) attenuates the presence of chaos.
