We derive a general expression for the expectation value of the phase acquired by a time dependent wave function in a multi component system, as excursions are made in its coordinate space. We then obtain the mean phase for the (linear…
Phase transitions have recently been formulated in the time domain of quantum many-body systems, a phenomenon dubbed dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs), whose phenomenology is often divided in two types. One refers to distinct…

Many dynamical systems consist of multiple, co-evolving subsystems (degrees of freedom). These subsystems often depend upon each other in a way that restricts the overall system's dynamics. How does this network of dependencies affect the…
The phase-space of a simple synchronization model is thoroughly investigated. The model considers two-mode stochastic oscillators, coupled through a pulse-like interaction controlled by simple optimization rules. A complex phase space is…
We consider the multifractal analysis of the pointwise dimension for Gibbs measures on countable Markov shifts. Our paper analyses the set of non-analytic points or phase transitions of the multifractal spectrum. By Sarig's thermodynamic…

Impulsive systems are a very flexible class of systems that can be used to represent switched and sampled-data systems. We propose to extend here the previously obtained results on deterministic impulsive systems to the stochastic setting.…
