We present a new theoretical information-geometric framework (IGAC, Information Geometrodynamical Approach to Chaos) suitable to characterize chaotic dynamical behavior of arbitrary complex systems.
The structure of the basin of attraction of a stable equilibrium point is investigated for a dynamical system (W97) often used to model transition to turbulence in shear flows. The basin boundary contains not only an equilibrium point Xlb…
In this paper, two models of interest for Celestial Mechanics are presented and analysed, using both analytic and numerical techniques, from the point of view of the possible presence of regular and/or chaotic motion, as well as the…
We review some recent results surrounding a general mechanism for producing chaotic behavior in periodically-kicked oscillators. The key geometric ideas are illustrated via a simple linear shear model.
Dynamics near the grazing manifold and basins of attraction for a motion of a material point in a gravitational field, colliding with a moving motion-limiting stop, are investigated. The Poincare map, describing evolution from an impact to…
We propose a theoretical framework for an explanation of the numerically discovered phenomenon of the attractor-repeller merger. We identify regimes which are observed in dynamical systems with attractors as defined in a work by Ruelle and…
This article analyzes the formulation of space-time continuous hyperbolic hydrodynamic models for systems of interacting particles moving on a lattice, by connecting their local stochastic lattice dynamics to the formulation of an…
The range of existence and the properties of two essentially different chaotic attractors found in a model of nonlinear convection-driven dynamos in rotating spherical shells are investigated. A hysteretic transition between these…
The existing periodic orbit theory of spectral correlations for classically chaotic systems relies on the Riemann-Siegel-like representation of the spectral determinants which is still largely hypothetical. We suggest a simpler derivation…
It is common that the average length of chaotic transients appearing as a consequence of crises in dynamical systems obeys a power low of scaling with the distance from the crisis point. It is, however, only a rough trend; in some cases…
A multidimensional basis of p-adic wavelets is constructed. The relation of the constructed basis to a system of coherent states (i.e. orbit of action) for some $p$-adic group of linear transformations is discussed. We show that the set of…
A simple kinematic model for the trajectories of Listeria monocytogenes is generalized to a dynamical system rich enough to exhibit the resonant Hopf bifurcation structure of excitable media and simple enough to be studied geometrically. It…
In the paper "Some Open Problems in Chaos Theory and Dynamics" by Zeraoulia and Sprott, the two-dimensional map (x,y) -> (-ax(1+y^2)^{-1}, x+by) was considered and the problem of analytical study of the boundedness of its attractors was…
A basic problem in complex dynamics is to understand orbits of holomorphic maps. One problem is to understand the collection of points $S$ in an attracting basin whose forward orbits land exactly on the attracting fixed point. In the paper…
Recently patterns were found in the least significant digits in the logistic map orbits in the chaotic regime. However, the dynamic of these digits was not explored in deep. We propose a new interpretation of the patterns found in the least…
The efficient detection of chaotic behavior in orbits of a complex dynamical system is an active domain of research. Several indicators have been proposed in the past, and new ones have recently been developed in view of improving the…
The regular or chaotic dynamics of an analytical realistic three dimensional model composed of a spherically symmetric central nucleus, a bar and a flat disk is investigated. For describing the properties of the bar we introduce a new…
For an attractive trapped Bose-Einstein condensate an imaginary three-body recombination loss term and an imaginary linear source term are usually included in the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation for a proper account of dynamics. Under the…

A study of rational maps of the real or complex projective plane of degree two or more, concentrating on those which map an elliptic curve onto itself, necessarily by an expanding map. We describe relatively simple examples with a rich…
