Multiple time scales in dynamical systems lead to a bundling of trajectories onto slow invariant manifolds (SIMs). Although they are absent in two-dimensional holomorphic dynamical systems, a bundling of orbits is often observed as well.…
We investigate the timescales for stochasticity and chaotic mixing in a family of triaxial potentials that mimic the distribution of light in elliptical galaxies. Some of the models include central point masses designed to represent nuclear…
We determine the ground-state phase-diagram of a Hubbard Hamiltonian with correlated hopping, which is asymmetric under particle-hole transform. By lowering the repulsive Coulomb interaction U at appropriate filling and interaction…
Some statistical properties of finite-time stability exponents in the standard map can be estimated analytically. The mean exponent averaged over the entire phase space behaves quite differently from all the other cumulants. Whereas the…
Temporal evolutions toward thermal equilibria are numerically investigated in a Hamiltonian system with many degrees of freedom which has second order phase transition. Relaxation processes are studied through local order parameter, and…
Symplectic integration algorithms are well-suited for long-term integrations of Hamiltonian systems because they preserve the geometric structure of the Hamiltonian flow. However, this desirable property is generally lost when adaptive…
We continue our study of chaotic mixing and transport of passive particles in a simple model of a meandering jet flow [Prants, et al, Chaos {\bf 16}, 033117 (2006)]. In the present paper we study and explain phenomenologically a connection…
We derive variational integrators for stochastic Hamiltonian systems on Lie groups using a discrete version of the stochastic Hamiltonian phase space principle. The structure-preserving properties of the resulting scheme, such as…
This paper proposes an alternative characterisation of the degree of stochasticity exhibited by orbits in a fixed galactic potential. This differs from earlier work involving Liapounov exponents by focusing on the statistical properties of…
Dynamics of many-body Hamiltonian systems with long range interactions is studied, in the context of the so called $\alpha-$HMF model. Building on the analogy with the related mean field model, we construct stationary states of the…
In a quantum system with a smoothly and slowly varying Hamiltonian, which approaches a constant operator at times $t\to \pm \infty$, the transition probabilities between adiabatic states are exponentially small. They are characterized by an…
Symplectic mappings are discrete-time analogs of Hamiltonian systems. They appear in many areas of physics, including, for example, accelerators, plasma, and fluids. Integrable mappings, a subclass of symplectic mappings, are equivalent to…
We develop the geometrical, analytical, and computational framework for reactive island theory for three degrees-of-freedom time-independent Hamiltonian systems. In this setting, the dynamics occurs in a 5-dimensional energy surface in…
This article is concerned with analytic Hamiltonian dynamical systems in infinite dimension in a neighborhood of an elliptic fixed point. Given a quadratic Hamiltonian, we consider the set of its analytic higher order perturbations. We…
We investigate the form of equilibrium spatio-temporal correlation functions of conserved quantities, and of energy transport in the Toda lattice and in other integrable models. From numerical simulations we find that the correlations…
We study the stability of a vector field associated to a nearly-integrable Hamiltonian dynamical system to which a dissipation is added. Such a system is governed by two parameters, named the perturbing and dissipative parameters, and it…
We analyze numerically the out-of-equilibrium relaxation dynamics of a long-range Hamiltonian system of $N$ fully coupled rotators. For a particular family of initial conditions, this system is known to enter a particular regime in which…
We investigate how decoherence affects the short-time separation between quantum and classical dynamics for classically chaotic systems, within the framework of a specific model. For a wide range of parameters, the distance between the…
Consider a random three-coordinate lattice of spherical topology having 2v vertices and being densely covered by a single closed, self-avoiding walk, i.e. being equipped with a Hamiltonian cycle. We determine the number of such objects as a…
Generic Hamiltonian systems have a mixed phase space, where classically disjoint regions of regular and chaotic motion coexist. We present an iterative method to construct an integrable approximation, which resembles the regular dynamics of…
