Anomalous diffusion occurs in many physical and biological phenomena, when the growth of the mean squared displacement (MSD) with time has an exponent different from one. We show that recurrent neural networks (RNN) can efficiently…

We prove a form of Arnold diffusion in the a priori stable case. Let H0(p) + $\epsilon$H1($\theta$, p, t), $\theta$ $\in$ T n , p $\in$ B n , t $\in$ T = R/T be a nearly integrable system of arbitrary degrees of freedom n 2 with a strictly…

We show that given a general uncoupled a priori unstable Hamiltonian \[ \frac12 p^2 + V(q) + G(I) + \epsilon h(p, q, I, \varphi, t), \] where $h$ is a generic Ma\~n\'e analytic function and $\epsilon$ is small enough, there is an orbit for…
Spatial diffusion of particles in periodic potential models has provided a good framework for studying the role of chaos in global properties of classical systems. Here a bidimensional "soft" billiard, classically modeled from an optical…
Although it is recognized that Anderson localization takes place for all states at a dimension $d$ less or equal $2$, while delocalization is expected for hopping $V(r)$ decreasing with the distance slower or as $r^{-d}$, the localization…
A two dimensional self-gravitating Hamiltonian model made by $N$ fully-coupled classical particles exhibits a transition from a collapsing phase (CP) at low energy to a homogeneous phase (HP) at high energy. From a dynamical point of view,…
This paper summarises a numerical investigation of phase mixing in time-independent Hamiltonian systems that admit a coexistence of regular and chaotic phase space regions, allowing also for low amplitude perturbations idealised as periodic…
The main model studied in this paper is a lattice of nearest neighbors coupled pendula. For certain localized coupling we prove existence of energy transfer and estimate its speed.
Arnold's diffusion in quasi integrable hamiltonian systems occurs in exponentially large time. We study an initially hyperbolic system which admits diffusion in polynomial time.
We study the global and the local transport and diffusion in the case of the standard map, by calculating the diffusion exponent $\mu$. In the global case we find that the mean diffusion exponent for the whole phase space is either $\mu=1$,…
Nonlinear diffusion is studied in the presence of multiplicative noise. The nonlinearity can be viewed as a ``wall'' limiting the motion of the diffusing field. A dynamic phase transition occurs when the system ``unbinds'' from the wall.…
We investigate the anomalous transport in optically-induced potentials that are random in both space and time. We find that the time variation destroys Anderson localization, replacing it by transport that is faster than diffusion, which in…
We discuss here in detail a new analytical random walk approach to calculating the phase-diagram for spatially extended systems with multiplicative noise. We use the Anderson localization problem as an example. The transition from…
The leading Pollicott-Ruelle resonance is calculated analytically for a general class of two-dimensional area-preserving maps. Its wave number dependence determines the normal transport coefficients. In particular, a general exact formula…
