In this paper we consider the problem of determining the stability properties, and in particular assessing the exponential stability, of a singularly perturbed linear switching system. One of the challenges of this problem arises from the…
We study the regularity of Lyapunov exponents for random linear cocycles taking values in $\Mat_m(\R)$ and driven by i.i.d. processes. Under three natural conditions - finite exponential moments, a spectral gap between the top two Lyapunov…
We consider the magnetic Schr\"odinger operator on the so-called zigzag periodic metric graph (a quasi 1D continuous model of zigzag nanotubes) with a periodic potential. The magnetic field (with the amplitude $B\in R$) is uniform and it is…
We show that Bowen's equation, which characterises the Hausdorff dimension of certain sets in terms of the topological pressure of an expanding conformal map, applies in greater generality than has been heretofore established. In…
We consider a self-adjoint two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\alpha\mu}$, which corresponds to the formal differential expression \[ -\Delta - \alpha\mu, \] where $\mu$ is a finite compactly supported positive Radon measure on…
We study two models of Anderson-type random operators on two deterministically coupled continuous strings. Each model is associated with independent, identically distributed four-by-four symplectic transfer matrices, which describe the…
We study the dimension spectrum for Lyapunov exponents for rational maps acting on the Riemann sphere and characterize it by means of the Legendre-Fenchel transform of the hidden variational pressure. This pressure is defined by means of…
For quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators with one-frequency analytic potentials, from dynamical systems side, it has been proved that the corresponding quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger cocycle is either rotations reducible or has positive…
In the present paper we give a positive answer to some questions posed by Viana on the existence of positive Lyapunov exponents for Hamiltonian linear differential systems. We prove that there exists an open and dense set of Hamiltonian…
We consider simulations of a 2-dimensional gas of hard disks in a rectangular container and study the Lyapunov spectrum near the vanishing Lyapunov exponents. To this spectrum are associated ``eigen-directions'', called Lyapunov modes. We…
In the dynamical systems approach to describing turbulent or otherwise chaotic flows, an important quantity is the Lyapunov exponents and vectors that characterize the strange attractor of the flow. In particular, knowledge of the Lyapunov…
We exploit the analogy between dynamics of inertial particle pair separation in a random-in-time flow and the Anderson model of a quantum particle on the line in a spatially random real-valued potential. Thereby we get an exact formula for…
We provide an example of a Schr\"odinger cocycle over a mixing Markov shift for which the integrated density of states has a very weak modulus of continuity, close to the log-H\"older lower bound established by W. Craig and B. Simon. This…
Anderson localization of matter waves was recently observed with cold atoms in a weak 1D disorder realized with laser speckle potential [J. Billy et al., Nature 453, 891 (2008)]. The latter is special in that it does not have spatial…
We study the long-term behavior of the iteration of a random map consisting of Lipschitz transformations on a compact metric space, independently and randomly selected according to a fixed probability measure. Such a random map is said to…
We consider the mixed local/nonlocal semilinear equation \begin{equation*} -\epsilon^{2}\Delta u +\epsilon^{2s}(-\Delta)^s u +u=u^p\qquad \text{in } \Omega \end{equation*} with zero Dirichlet datum, where $\epsilon>0$ is a small parameter,…
We consider a mechanism for area preserving Hamiltonian systems which leads to the enhanced probability, $P(\lambda, t)$, to find small values of the finite time Lyapunov exponent, $\lambda$. In our investigation of chaotic dynamical…
We prove a dynamical restriction principle, asserting that every restriction estimate satisfied by the Fourier transform in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is also valid for the propagator of certain Schr\"odinger equations. We consider smooth Hamiltonians…
A distinct feature of Hermitian quantum chaotic dynamics is the exponential increase of certain out-of-time-order-correlation (OTOC) functions around the Ehrenfest time with a rate given by a Lyapunov exponent. Physically, the OTOCs…
