We present a new method for the computation of Lyapunov exponents utilizing representations of orthogonal matrices applied to decompositions of M or MM_trans where M is the tangent map. This method uses a minimal set of variables, does not require renormalization or reorthogonalization, can be used to efficiently compute partial Lyapunov spectra, and does not break down when the Lyapunov spectrum is degenerate.
Statistical properties of energy levels and eigenfunctions in a ballistic system with diffusive surface scattering are investigated. The two-level correlation function, the level number variance, the correlation function of wavefunction intensities, and the inverse participation ratio are calculated.
We investigate the dynamical behaviour of two limit cycle oscillators that interact with each other via time delayed coupling and find that time delay can lead to amplitude death of the oscillators even if they have the same frequency. We demonstrate that this novel regime of amplitude "death" also exists for large collections of coupled identical oscillators and provide quantitative measures of this death region in the parameter space of coupling strength and time delay. Its implication for certain biological and physical applications is also pointed out.
It is reported that the characteristic relations of type-II and type-III intermittencies, with respective local Poincar$\acute{e}$ maps of $x_{n+1}= (1+ε)x_n + a x^3_n$ and $x_{n+1}= - (1+ε)x_n - a x^3_n$, are both $- ln (ε)$ under the assumption of uniform reinjection probability. However, the intermittencies have various characteristic relations such as $ε^{-ν}$ ($1/2 \leq ν\leq 1$) depending on the reinjection probability. In this Letters the various characteristic relations are discussed, and the $ε^{-1/2}$ characteristic relation is obtained experimentally in an electronic circuit, with uniform reinjection probability.
We have found an analytic expression for the multivariate generating function governing all n-point statistics of random multiplicative cascade processes. The variable appropriate for this generating function is the logarithm of the energy density, ln epsilon, rather than epsilon itself. All cumulant statistics become sums over derivatives of ``branching generating functions'' which are Laplace transforms of the splitting functions and completely determine the cascade process. We show that the branching generating function is a generalization of the multifractal mass exponents. Two simple models from fully developed turbulence illustrate the new formalism.
A Lagrangian method for the numerical simulation of the Kraichnan passive scalar model is introduced. The method is based on Monte--Carlo simulations of tracer trajectories, supplemented by a point-splitting procedure for coinciding points. Clean scaling behavior for scalar structure functions is observed. The scheme is exploited to investigate the dependence of scalar anomalies on the scaling exponent $ξ$ of the advecting velocity field. The three-dimensional fourth-order structure function is specifically considered.
We study the behavior of vortex filaments subject to a uniform density of phase twist in oscillatory media described by the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. The first instability is a supercritical Hopf bifurcation to stable propagating helical vortices. The secondary instability, also a forward Hopf bifurcation, leads to quasiperiodic supercoiled filaments. The structural changes undergone by these dynamical objects are akin to those of twisted elastic rods, in spite of the presence of the ribbon component of the twist, particular to phase singularities.
In this letter a new solvable model of synchronization dynamics is introduced. It consists of a system of long range interacting tops with random precession frequencies. The model allows for an explicit study of orientational effects in synchronized phenomena. A stability analysis of the incoherent solution is performed for different types of orientational disorder. A system with only orientational disorder always synchronizes in the absence of external noise.
Treating a many-body Fermi system in terms of a single particle in a deforming mean field. We relate adiabatic geometric phase to susceptibility for the noncyclic case, and to its derivative for the cyclic case. Employing the semiclassical expression of susceptibility, the expression for geometric phase for chaotic quantum system immediately follows. Exploiting the well-known association of the absorptive part of susceptibility with dissipation, our relations may provide a quantum mechanical origin of the damping of collective excitations in Fermi systems.
Intensities of LEED and PED are analyzed from a statistical point of view. The probability distribution is compared with a Porter-Thomas law, characteristic of a chaotic quantum system. The agreement obtained is understood in terms of analogies between simple models and Berry's conjecture for a typical wavefunction of a chaotic system. The consequences of this behaviour on surface structural analysis are qualitatively discussed by looking at the behaviour of standard correlation factors.
Decision procedures aggregating the preferences of multiple agents can produce cycles and hence outcomes which have been described heuristically as `chaotic'. We make this description precise by constructing an explicit dynamical system from the agents' preferences and a voting rule. The dynamics form a one dimensional statistical mechanics model; this suggests the use of the topological entropy to quantify the complexity of the system. We formulate natural political/social questions about the expected complexity of a voting rule and degree of cohesion/diversity among agents in terms of random matrix models---ensembles of statistical mechanics models---and compute quantitative answers in some representative cases.
The geometric phases of the cyclic states of a generalized harmonic oscillator with nonadiabatic time-periodic parameters are discussed in the framework of squeezed state. A class of cyclic states are expressed as a superposition of an infinte number of squeezed states. Then, their geometric phases are obtained explicitly and found to be $-(n+1/2)$ times the classical nonadiabatic Hannay angle. It is shown that the analysis based on squeezed state approach provide a clear picture of the geometric meaning of the quantal phase.
Single bubble sonoluminescence has been experimentally produced through a novel approach of optimized sound excitation. A driving consisting of a first and second harmonic with selected amplitudes and relative phase results in an increase of light emission compared to sinusoidal driving. We achieved a raise of the maximum photo current of up to 300% with the two-mode sound signal. Numerical simulations of multimode excitation of a single bubble are compared to this result.
We investigate the Dirac equation in the semiclassical limit \hbar --> 0. A semiclassical propagator and a trace formula are derived and are shown to be determined by the classical orbits of a relativistic point particle. In addition, two phase factors enter, one of which can be calculated from the Thomas precession of a classical spin transported along the particle orbits. For the second factor we provide an interpretation in terms of dynamical and geometric phases.
We study how the ionic core in a non-hydrogenic atom modifies the dynamics of a Rydberg electron in the presence of a weak static external field. We show that such a system is neither regular nor chaotic: its energy levels display unusual statistical properties, intermediate between the standard Poisson and Random Matrix ones. The ionic core acts as a scatterer whose size is comparable to the de Broglie wavelength of the electron, inducing specific quantum effects.
We describe an iterative approach to computing long-time semiclassical dynamics in the presence of chaos, which eliminates the need for summing over an exponentially large number of classical paths, and has good convergence properties even beyond the Heisenberg time. Long-time semiclassical properties can be compared with those of the full quantum system. The method is used to demonstrate semiclassical dynamical localization in one-dimensional classically diffusive systems, showing that interference between classical paths is a sufficient mechanism for limiting long-time phase space exploration.
Using the Lorenz equations, we have investigated whether unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) associated with a strange attractor may predict the occurrence of the robust sharp peaks in histograms of some experimental chaotic time series. Histograms with sharp peaks occur for the Lorenz parameter value r=60.0 but not for r=28.0, and the sharp peaks for r=60.0 do not correspond to any single histogram derived from a UPO. Despite this lack of correspondence, we show that histograms derived from a chaotic time series can be accurately predicted by an escape-time weighting of UPO histograms.
An algorithm to characterize collective motion is presented, with the introduction of ``collective Lyapunov exponent'', as the orbital instability at a macroscopic level. By applying the algorithm to a globally coupled map, existence of low-dimensional collective chaos is confirmed, where the scale of (high-dimensional) microscopic chaos is separated from the macroscopic motion, and the scale approaches zero in the thermodynamic limit. pacs:05.45+b,05.90+m,64.60.Cn
