We show, using generic globally-coupled systems, that the collective dynamics of large chaotic systems is encoded in their Lyapunov spectra: most modes are typically localized on a few degrees of freedom, but some are delocalized, acting…
We study the nature of chaos in finite and infinite dimensional systems through a comparison between the Kuramoto Sivashinsky (KS) equation, the Lorenz system, and a Lorenz type reduction of the KS equation proposed by Wilczak. Numerical…

Assuming the space dimension is not constant but decreases during the expansion of the Universe, we study chaotic inflation with the potential $m^2\phi^2/2$. Our investigations are based on a model Universe with variable space dimensions.…
This paper studies distributional chaos in non-autonomous discrete systems generated by given sequences of maps in metric spaces. In the case that the metric space is compact, it is shown that a system is Li-Yorke{\delta}-chaotic if and…
We review how a specific resummation of the so-called "delta-expansion", applied to the QCD Lagrangian, transforms the ordinary perturbative expansion in $\alpha_s$ into an expansion in an arbitrary mass parameter, around the basic scale…
We define a (chaotic) deterministic variant of random multiplicative cascade models of turbulence. It preserves the hierarchical tree structure, thanks to the addition of infinitesimal noise. The zero-noise limit can be handled by…
