The paper considers a stabilizing stochastic control which can be applied to a variety of unstable and even chaotic maps. Compared to previous methods introducing control by noise, we relax assumptions on the class of maps, as well as…
We study the dynamics of a "kicked" quantum system undergoing repeated measurements of momentum. A diffusive behavior is obtained for a large class of Hamiltonians, even when the dynamics of the classical counterpart is not chaotic. These…
We prove that any continuous vector field on a circle is the extension in a suitable sense, of a unique infinitesimal earthquake of the hyperbolic plane. Furthermore, we obtain other extension results when the vector field is assumed only…
Earthquake occurrence in nature is thought to result from correlated elastic stresses, leading to clustering in space and time. We show that occurrence of major earthquakes in California correlates with time intervals when fluctuations in…
We present a new technique in order to quantify the dynamics of spatially extended systems. Using a test on the existence of unstable periodic orbits, we identify intermediate spatial scales, wherein the dynamics is characterized by maximum…
Spatially distributed limited-cycle oscillators are seen in various physical and biological systems. In internal organs, mechanical motions are induced by the stimuli of spatially distributed limit-cycle oscillators. We study several…
Using the technique of quasi difference sets we characterize geometry and automorphisms of configurations which can be presented as a join of some others, in particular - which can be presented as series of cyclically inscribed copies of…
We prove that every bounded type Siegel disk of a rational map must be a quasi-disk with at least one critical point on its boundary. This verifies Douady-Sullivan conjecture for bounded type Siegel disks.
In this paper, we introduce a new class of mappings, termed $(\rho,t)$-quasisymmetric mappings, which generalizes the classical concept of quasisymmetric mappings. Using this broader class of mappings, we provide an analytic…
This paper is devoted to show the advantages of introducing a geometric viewpoint and a non extensive formulation in the description of apparently unrelated phenomena: combustion and earthquakes. Here, it is shown how the introduction of a…
We quantify the correlation between earthquakes and use the same to distinguish between relevant causally connected earthquakes. Our correlation metric is a variation on the one introduced by Baiesi and Paczuski (2004). A network of…
We construct sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings which map the unit disk onto a domain which is convex in the horizontal direction, but with varying dilatation. Also, we obtain minimal surfaces associated with such harmonic…
In this paper, we study analytic self-maps of the unit disk for which the hyperbolic diameters of the images of hyperbolic balls of radius 1 are uniformly bounded below. We give several characterizations of such maps involving the behaviour…
Without a model, it is impossible for a geophysicist to study the possibility of forecasting earth quakes. We will define a quantity, the event-degree, in the paper. This quantity plays an important role in the model of quakes forecasting.…
We extend the recently developed discrete geometric singular perturbation theory to the non-normally hyperbolic regime. Our primary tool is the Takens embedding theorem, which provides a means of approximating the dynamics of particular…
We consider the electromagnetic field in a cavity with a periodically oscillating perfectly reflecting boundary and show that the mathematical theory of circle maps leads to several physical predictions. Notably, well-known results in the…
Bifurcations in a system of coupled maps are investigated. Using symbolic dynamics it is proven that for coupled shift maps the well known space--time--mixing attractor becomes unstable at a critical coupling strength in favour of a…
It is shown that random quantum spin systems with centered disorder satisfy correlation inequalities previously proved (arXiv:cond-mat/0612371) in the classical case. Consequences include monotone approach of pressure and ground state…
We study methods of inducing metrics on unital completely positive maps by employing seminorms arising in noncommutative geometry. Our main approach relies on the development of an infinite-dimensional $C^*$-algebraic analogue of the…
The spectral fluctuations of complex quantum systems, in appropriate limit, are known to be consistent with that obtained from random matrices. However, this relation between the spectral fluctuations of physical systems and random matrices…
