We consider hyperbolic and partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds. Associated with invariant foliation of these systems, we define some topological invariants and show certain relationships between these topological…
We provide several characterizations of convergence to unstable equilibria in nonlinear systems. Our current contribution is three-fold. First we present simple algebraic conditions for establishing local convergence of non-trivial…
We consider a diffusion on a bounded domain, assuming that the system is irreducible inside the domain and that the diffusion has varying degree of degeneracy on the domain's boundary. The long-term statistical properties of typical…
In this work we study relations between regularity of invariant foliations and Lyapunov exponents of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. We suggest a new regularity condition for foliations in terms of desintegration of Lebesgue measure…
We study relative dispersion of passive scalar in non-ideal cases, i.e. in situations in which asymptotic techniques cannot be applied; typically when the characteristic length scale of the Eulerian velocity field is not much smaller than…
For systems evolving on a Riemannian manifold, we propose converse Lyapunov theorems for asymptotic and exponential stability. The novelty of the proposed approach is that is does not rely on local Euclidean coordinate, and is thus valid on…
We use Lyapunov type functions to find conditions of finite shadowing in a neighborhood of a nonhyperbolic fixed point of a one-dimensional or two-dimensional homeomorphism or diffeomorphism. A new concept of shadowing in which we control…
Answering a question left open in \cite{MZ2}, we show for general symmetric hyperbolic boundary problems with constant coefficients, including in particular systems with characteristics of variable multiplicity, that the uniform Lopatinski…
For strongly dissipative H\'enon maps at the first bifurcation where the uniform hyperbolicity is destroyed by the formation of tangencies inside the limit set, we establish a thermodynamic formalism, i.e., prove the existence and…
We consider Holder continuous linear cocycles over partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. For fiber bunched cocycles with one Lyapunov exponent we show continuity of measurable invariant conformal structures and sub-bundles. Further, we…
We study random dynamical systems generated by volume-preserving piecewise $C^{1}$ maps. For this class of systems, we establish an invariance principle stating that if all Lyapunov exponents vanish, then there exists a measurable family of…
Let $f:\mathbb{C}^2\to \mathbb{C}^2$ be a polynomial skew product which leaves invariant an attracting vertical line $ L $. Assume moreover $f$ restricted to $L$ is non-uniformly hyperbolic, in the sense that $f$ restricted to $L$ satisfies…
We show how the Lyapunov exponents of a dynamic system can in general be expressed in terms of the free energy of a (non-Hermitian) quantum many-body problem. This puts their study as a problem of statistical mechanics, whose intuitive…
In hyperbolic dynamics, a well-known result is: every hyperbolic Lyapunov stable set, is attracting; it's natural to wonder if this result is maintained in the sectional-hyperbolic dynamics. This question is still open, although some…
[GIKN] and [BBD1] propose two very different ways for building non hyperbolic measures, [GIKN] building such a measure as the limit of periodic measures and [BBD1] as the $\omega$-limit set of a single orbit, with a uniformly vanishing…
Lyapunov exponent is widely used in natural science to find chaotic signal, but its existence is seldom discussed. In the present paper, we consider the problem of whether the set of points at which Lyapunov exponent fails to exist, called…
In this survey we talk about what is known as Invariance Principle in dynamical systems. It states that the disintegration of measures with zero center Lyapunov exponents admits some extra invariance by holonomies. We focus on explaining…
For r > 1, we show, using the Ledrappier-Young entropy characterization of SRB measures for non-invertible maps, that if a C^r map f of the interval or the circle has its Lyapunov exponent greater than 1/r log ||f ' || $\infty$ on a set E…
In this work we develop a new criterion for the existence of topological horseshoes for surface homeomorphisms in the isotopy class of the identity. Based on our previous work on forcing theory, this new criterion is purely topological and…
We prove the existence of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measures for a class of $C^2$ self-mappings of a rectangle with unbounded derivatives. The results can be regarded as a generalization of a well-known one dimensional Folklore Theorem on the…
