Let $f$ be a continuous circle map and let $F$ be a lifting of $f$. In this note we study how the existence of a large orbit for $F$ affects its set of periods. More precisely, we show that, if $F$ is of degree $d\geq 1$ and has a periodic…
We face the problem of characterizing the periodic cases in parametric families of (real or complex) rational diffeomorphisms having a fixed point. Our approach relies on the Normal Form Theory, to obtain necessary conditions for the…

A method for the automatic classification of the orbits of magnetic field lines into topologically distinct classes using the Vietoris-Rips persistent homology is presented. The input to the method is the Poincare map orbits of field lines…
We investigate the evolution of families of periodic orbits in a bisymmetrical potential made up of a two-dimensional harmonic oscillator with only one quartic perturbing term, in a number of resonant cases. Our main objective is to compute…
We study cocycles taking values in the mapping class group of closed surfaces and investigate their leading topological Lyapunov exponent. Under a natural closing property, we show that the top topological Lyapunov exponent can be…
This article is a survey on recent contributions to an effective version of Bautin's theory about the bifurcation of periodic orbits (limit cycles). The analysis of Hopf bifurcations of higher order is possible by use of the return mapping.…
We present an adaptation of a relatively simple topological argument to show the existence of many periodic orbits in an infinite dimensional dynamical system, provided that the system is close to a one-dimensional map in a certain sense.…
In this paper, following J.Nielsen, we introduce a complete characteristic of orientation preserving periodic maps on the two-dimensional torus. All admissible complete characteristics were found and realized. In particular, each of classes…
Stable Hamiltonian structures generalize contact forms and define a volume-preserving vector field known as the Reeb vector field. We study two aspects of Reeb vector fields defined by stable Hamiltonian structures on 3-manifolds: on one…
We study the dynamics of a two-planet system, which evolves being in a $1/1$ mean motion resonance (co-orbital motion) with non-zero mutual inclination. In particular, we examine the existence of bifurcations of periodic orbits from the…
The periodic orbit conjecture states that, on closed manifolds, the set of lengths of the orbits of a non-vanishing vector field all whose orbits are closed admits an upper bound. This conjecture is known to be false in general due to a…
In this paper, the general perturbation problem of piecewise smooth integrable differential systems with two switching planes is considered. Firstly, when the unperturbed system has a family of periodic orbits, the first order Melnikov…
We prove the existence of an effective universal upper bound for the order of any integral periodic orbit of any integral algebraic dynamical system in a fixed ambient space. Using this, we demonstrate the decidability of periodicity in…
Many multi-variate time series obtained in the natural sciences and engineering possess a repetitive behavior, as for instance state-space trajectories of industrial machines in discrete automation. Recovering the times of recurrence from…
