We show here a series of energy gaps as in Hofstadter's butterfly, which have been shown to exist by Koshino et al [Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 1062 (2001)] for anisotropic three-dimensional (3D) periodic systems in magnetic fields $\Vec{B}$, also…

The well known butterfly effect got its nomenclature from its two wings geometrical structure in phase space. There are chaotic dynamics from simple one-wing to multiple-wings complex structures in phase space. In this communication we…

The behaviour of classical mechanical systems is characterised by their phase portraits, the collections of their trajectories. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle precludes the existence of sharply defined trajectories, which is why…
The Floquet spectrum of a class of driven SU(2) systems is shown to display a butterfly pattern with multi-fractal properties. The level crossing between Floquet states of the same parity or different parities is studied. The results are…
