We calculate the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents for a point particle moving in a random array of fixed hard disk or hard sphere scatterers, i.e. the disordered Lorentz gas, in a generic nonequilibrium situation. In a large system which is…
This paper deals with the problem of analytically computing the largest Lyapunov exponent for many degrees of freedom Hamiltonian systems. This aim is succesfully reached within a theoretical framework that makes use of a geometrization of…
A collisionless kinetic plasma model may often be cast as an infinite-dimensional noncanonical Hamiltonian system. I show that, when this is the case, the model can be discretized in space and particles while preserving its Hamiltonian…
The {\it curvature} and the {\it reduced curvature} are basic differential invariants of the pair: (Hamiltonian system, Lagrange distribution) on the symplectic manifold. We show that negativity of the curvature implies that any bounded…
It is shown that if a non-autonomous system of $2n$ first-order ordinary differential equations is expressed in the form of the Hamilton equations in terms of two different sets of coordinates, $(q_{i}, p_{i})$ and $(Q_{i}, P_{i})$, then…
The Wigner function is known to evolve classically under the exclusive action of a quadratic hamiltonian. If the system does interact with the environment through Lindblad operators that are linear functions of position and momentum, we…
The evolution is described of an infinite system of hopping point particles in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The states of the system are probability measures on the space of configurations of particles. Under the condition that the initial state $\mu_0$…

The following model is studied analytically and numerically: point particles with masses $m,\mu,m, \dots$ ($m\geq\mu$) are distributed over the positive half-axis. Their dynamics is initiated by giving a positive velocity to the particle…
This paper considers systems subject to nonholonomic constraints which are not uniform on the whole configuration manifold. When the constraints change, the system undergoes a transition in order to comply with the new imposed conditions.…
We consider the system of $N$ ($\ge2$) elastically colliding hard balls of masses $m_1,...,m_N$ and radius $r$ on the flat unit torus $\Bbb T^\nu$, $\nu\ge2$. We prove the so called Boltzmann-Sinai Ergodic Hypothesis, i. e. the full…
The Hamiltonian Mean-Field model (HMF), an inertial XY ferromagnet with infinite-range interactions, has been extensively studied in the last few years, especially due to its long-lived meta-equilibrium states, which exhibit a series of…
We investigate the Cahn-Hilliard equation with nonlinear diffusion and non-degenerate mobility modeling phase separation phenomena in complex systems (e.g., crystals and polymers). Previous results in the literature on this model relied on…
Weighted degrees of quasihomogeneous Hamiltonian functions of the Painlev\'{e} equations are investigated. A tuple of positive integers, called a regular weight, satisfying certain conditions related to singularity theory is classified.…
The time-averaged Lyapunov exponents support a mechanistic description of the chaos generated in and by nonlinear dynamical systems. The exponents are ordered from largest to smallest with the largest one describing the exponential growth…
In this work we study the so-called ModMax nonlinear electrodynamics, which is a novel model designed to preserve duality rotations and conformal transformations, such as the Maxwell's equations do. This model allows to study diverse…
We consider non-i.i.d. random holomorphic dynamical systems whose choice of maps depends on Markovian rules. We show that generically, such a system is mean stable or chaotic with full Julia set. If a system is mean stable, then the…
