We consider here a recently proposed geometrical criterion for local instability based on the geodesic deviation equation. Although such a criterion can be useful in some cases, we show here that, in general, it is neither necessary nor…
We study a new type of magnetoconvection in a nonuniform rotating plasma layer under a constant vertical magnetic field. To describe the weakly nonlinear stage of convection we apply Galerkin-truncated approximation and we obtain the system…
We report experimental study of the secondary modulational instability of a one-dimensional non-linear traveling wave in a long bounded channel. Two qualitatively different instability regimes involving fronts of spatio-temporal defects are…
While the geodesic motion around a Kerr black hole is fully integrable and therefore regular, numerical explorations of the phase-space around other spacetime configurations, with a different multipolar structure, have displayed chaotic…
We use tools from nonlinear dynamics to the detailed analysis of cold atom experiments. A powerful example is provided by the recent concept of basin entropy which allows to quantify the final state unpredictability that results from the…
In order to classify and understand the spacetime structure, investigation of the geodesic motion of massive and massless particles is a key tool. So the geodesic equation is a central equation of gravitating systems and the subject of…
In the interstellar medium, as well as in the Universe, large density fluctuations are observed, that obey power-law density distributions and correlation functions. These structures are hierarchical, chaotic, turbulent, but are also…
A link between the possibility of extending a geodessically incomplete kinked spacetime to a spacetime which is geodesically complete and the energy conditions is discussed for the case of a cylindrically-symmetric spacetime kink. It is…
The motion of spinless particles in Riemann-Cartan (RC) $U_{4}$ and teleparallel spacetimes is revisited on the light of gravitational waves hitting on the spinless test particles. It is shown that in the case Cartan contortion is totally…
With the decline of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics and the recent experiments indicating that quantum mechanics does actually embody 'objective reality', one might ask if a 'mechanical', conceptual model for quantum…
We investigate the dynamics of passive particles in a two-dimensional incompressible open flow composed of a fixed topographical point vortex and a background current with a periodic component. The tracer dynamics is found to be typically…
We study the gravitational waves in modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity. Applying the metric perturbation around a cosmological background, we obtain explicit expressions for the wave equations. It is shown that the speed of the traceless mode is…
We demonstrate fractal noise in the quantum evolution of wave packets moving either ballistically or diffusively in periodic and quasiperiodic tight-binding lattices, respectively. For the ballistic case with various initial superpositions…
The wavefunctions in phase-space representation can be expressed as entire functions of their zeros if the phase space is compact. These zeros seem to hide a lot of relevant and explicit information about the underlying classical dynamics.…
Gyratonic pp-waves are exact solutions of Einstein's equations that represent non-linear gravitational waves endowed with angular momentum. We consider gyratonic pp-waves that travel in the $z$ direction and whose time dependence on the…
The nonlinear dc conductance of a two-terminal chaotic cavity is investigated. The fluctuations of the conductance (anti)symmetric with respect to magnetic flux inversion through multichannel cavities are found analytically for arbitrary…
Aerosols under chaotic advection often approach a strange attractor. They move chaotically on this fractal set but, in the presence of gravity, they have a net vertical motion downwards. In practical situations, observational data may be…
We show that Gutzwiller's characterization of chaotic Hamiltonian systems in terms of the curvature associated with a Riemannian metric tensor in the structure of the Hamiltonian can be extended to a wide class of potential models of…
Of the various interesting solutions found in the two-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation for anisotropic systems, the phase-chaotic states show particularly novel features. They exist in a broader parameter range than in the…
We report on a numerical study of gravitational waves undergoing gravitational collapse due to their self-interaction. We consider several families of asymptotically flat initial data which, similar to the well known Choptuik's discovery,…
