In the sciences in general, the phrase "route to chaos" has come to refer to a metaphor when some physical, biological, economic, or social system transitions from one exhibiting order to one displaying randomness (or chaos). Sometimes the…

The basic laws of physics are simple, so why is the world complex? The theory of self-organized criticality posits that complex behavior in nature emerges from the dynamics of extended, dissipative systems that evolve through a sequence of…

The hypothesis of molecular chaos plays the central role in kinetic theory, which provides a closure leading to the Boltzmann equation for quantitative description of classic fluids. Yet how to properly extend it to active systems is still…

Chaotic multiscale dynamical systems are common in many areas of science, one of the examples being the interaction of the low-frequency dynamics in the atmosphere with the fast turbulent weather dynamics. One of the key questions about…

We consider classical two-dimensional Kepler system with spin-orbit coupling and show that at a sufficiently strong coupling it demonstrates a chaotic behavior. The chaos emerges since the spin-orbit coupling reduces the number of the…
