We investigate bifurcation of closed orbits with a fixed energy level for a class of nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. More precisely, we make a joint use of Moser invariant curve theorem and…
This paper focusses attention on the strange nonchaotic attractors (SNA) of a quasiperiodically forced dynamical system. Several routes, including the standard ones by which the appearance of strange nonchaotic attractors takes place, are…
We revisit here the dynamics of an engineered dimer granular crystal under an external periodic drive in the presence of dissipation. Earlier findings included a saddle-node bifurcation, whose terminal point initiated the observation of…
We show that in the neighborhood of the tripling bifurcation of a periodic orbit of a Hamiltonian flow or of a fixed point of an area preserving map, there is generically a bifurcation that creates a ``twistless'' torus. At this…
When two Turing modes interact, i.e., Turing-Turing bifurcation occurs, superposition patterns revealing complex dynamical phenomena appear. In this paper, superposition patterns resulting from Turing-Turing bifurcation are investigated in…
We investigate the universality of an Ising symmetry breaking phase transition of tilted two-dimensional Dirac fermions, in the type-I phase as well as at the Lifshitz transition between a type-I and a type-II semimetal, where the Fermi…
A central concept in the theory of phase transitions beyond the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm is fractionalization: the formation of new quasiparticles that interact via emergent gauge fields. This concept has been extensively explored in…
Systematic microcanonical inflection-point analysis of precise numerical results obtained in extensive generalized-ensemble Monte Carlo simulations reveals a bifurcation of the coil-globule transition line for polymers with a bending…
A Lorenz-like model was set up recently, to study the hydrodynamic instabilities in a driven active matter system. This Lorenz model differs from the standard one in that all three equations contain non-linear terms. The additional…
In wall-bounded parallel flows, sustained turbulence can occur even while laminar flow is still stable. Channel flow is one of such flows and displays spatio-temporal fluctuating patterns of localized turbulence along its way from/to…
In the present paper we utilize the renormalization group(RG) technique to analyse the Ising critical behavior in the double frequency sine-Gordon model. The one-loop RG equations obtained show unambiguously that there exist two Ising…
We combine results available in the literature to prove that the torus emerging in a secondary Hopf bifurcation is normally hyperbolic. This result is then applied to establish sufficient conditions for the bifurcation of normally…
A replica-symmetry-breaking phase transition is predicted in a host of disordered media. The criticality of the transition has, however, long been questioned below its upper critical dimension, six, due to the absence of a critical fixed…
We investigate the stability loss of invariant n-dimensional quasi-periodic tori during a double Hopf bifurcation, where at bifurcation the two normal frequencies are in normal-normal resonance. Invariants are used to analyse the normal…
A transition state for a Hamiltonian system is a closed, invariant, oriented, codimension-2 submanifold of an energy-level that can be spanned by two compact codimension-1 surfaces of unidirectional flux whose union, called a dividing…
The understanding and prediction of sudden changes in flow patterns is of paramount importance in the analysis of geophysical flows as these rare events relate to critical phenomena such as atmospheric blocking, the weakening of the Gulf…
Numerical bifurcation analysis, and in particular two-parameter continuation, is used in consort with numerical simulation to reveal complicated dynamics in the Mackey-Glass equation for moderate values of the delay close to the onset of…
We present a functional renormalization group (FRG) analysis of a Landau-Ginzburg model of type-II superconductors (generalized to $n/2$ complex fields) in a magnetic field, both for a pure system, and in the presence of quenched random…
We investigate the emergence of complex dynamics in a system of coupled dissipative kicked rotors and show that critical transitions can be understood via bifurcations of simple states. We study multistability and bifurcations in the single…
These lectures focus on bifurcation analysis as a tool for studying phase transitions that occur in models of liquid-crystalline systems. We show how this approach bridges the gap between the phenomenological Landau theory and the --- often…
