Lorenz attractors play an important role in the modern theory of dynamical systems. The reason is that they are robust, i.e. preserve their chaotic properties under various kinds of perturbations. This means that such attractors can exist…
We show that bifurcations of periodic orbits with multipliers $(-1,i,-i)$ can lead to the birth of pseudohyperbolic (i.e., robustly chaotic) Lorenz-like attractors of three different types: one is a discrete analogue of the classical Lorenz…
The orbits of fluid particles in two dimensions effectively act as topological obstacles to material lines. A spacetime plot of the orbits of such particles can be regarded as a braid whose properties reflect the underlying dynamics. For a…
Transport by normal diffusion can be decomposed into the so-called hydrodynamic modes which relax exponentially toward the equilibrium state. In chaotic systems with two degrees of freedom, the fine scale structure of these hydrodynamic…

Analysis of the periodic points of a conservative periodic dynamical system uncovers the basic kinematic structure of the transport dynamics, and identifies regions of local stability or chaos. While elliptic and hyperbolic points typically…
