The classical approach to the study of dynamical systems consists in representing the dynamics of the system in the form of a "source-sink", that means identifying an attractor-repeller pair, which are attractor-repellent sets for all other…
Although it is unambiguously agreed that structure plays a fundamental role in shaping the dynamics of complex systems, this intricate relationship still remains unclear. We investigate a general computational transformation by which we can…
The tenfold classification provides a powerful framework for organizing topological phases of matter based on symmetry and spatial dimension. However, it does not offer a systematic method for transitioning between classes or engineering…
Integrable deformations of a class of Rikitake dynamical systems are constructed by deforming their underlying Lie-Poisson Hamiltonian structures, which are considered linearizations of Poisson--Lie structures on certain (dual) Lie groups.…
Sandpile dynamics are considered on graphs constructed from periodic plane and space tilings by assigning a growing piece of the tiling either torus or open boundary conditions. A general method of obtaining the Green's function of the…
We study multiple tilings of 3-dimensional Euclidean space by a convex body. In a multiple tiling, a convex body $P$ is translated with a discrete multiset $\Lambda$ in such a way that each point of the space gets covered exactly $k$ times,…
Topological defects in active liquid crystals can be confined by introducing gradients of activity. Here, we examine the dynamical behavior of two defects confined by a sharp gradient of activity that separates an active circular region and…
We introduce the Euler-Lagrange cohomology to study the symplectic and multisymplectic structures and their preserving properties in finite and infinite dimensional Lagrangian systems respectively. We also explore their certain difference…
When are two germs of analytic systems conjugate or orbitally equivalent under an analytic change of coordinates in the neighborhood of a singular point? A way to answer is to use normal forms. But there are large classes of dynamical…
We consider the problem of topological linearization of smooth (C infinity or real analytic) control systems, i.e. of their local equivalence to a linear controllable system via point-wise transformations on the state and the control…
Anderson and Putnam showed that the cohomology of a substitution tiling space may be computed by collaring tiles to obtain a substitution which "forces its border." One can then represent the tiling space as an inverse limit of an inflation…
Despite being vastly ignored in the literature, coping with topological noise is an issue of increasing importance, especially as a consequence of the increasing number and diversity of 3D polygonal models that are captured by devices of…
The recently discovered Hat tiling admits a 4-dimensional family of shape deformations, including the 1-parameter family already known to yield alternate monotiles. The continuous hulls resulting from these tilings are all topologically…
The number of distinguishable inherent structures of a liquid is the key component to understanding the thermodynamics of glass formers. In the case of hard potential systems such as hard discs, spheres and ellipsoids, an inherent structure…
We fully generalize a previously-developed computational geometry tool [1] to perform large-scale simulations of arbitrary two-dimensional faceted surfaces $z = h(x,y)$. Our method uses a three-component facet/edge/junction storage model,…
This paper is intended to provide an introduction to the theory of substitution tilings. For our purposes, tiling substitution rules are divided into two broad classes: geometric and combinatorial. Geometric substitution tilings include…
We study a class of $\Z^{d}$-substitutive subshifts, including a large family of constant-length substitutions, and homomorphisms between them, i.e., factors modulo isomorphisms of $\Z^{d}$. We prove that any measurable factor map and even…
The emergence of non-configurational symmetry is studied in a minimal example. The system under scrutiny consists of a dimeric hexagonal complex with configurational $C_3$ symmetry, formulated as a tight-binding model. An accidental…
The goal of this article is to study how combinatorial equivalence implies topological conjugacy. For that, we introduce the concept of kneading sequences for nonautonomous discrete dynamical systems and show that these sequences are a…
Topological defects (TDs) are crucial for understanding important physical properties of crystalline materials including mechanical failure, ion transport, and two-dimensional melting. This concept has not translated to disordered materials…
