Density of chaotic dynamics in periodically forced pendulum-type equations

Elena Bosetto, Enrico Serra, Susanna Terracini (2001)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We announce that a class of problems containing the classical periodically forced pendulum equation displays the main features of chaotic dynamics for a dense set of forcing terms in a space of periodic functions with zero mean value. The approach is based on global variational methods.

Derivative of the norm of a linear mapping and its application to differential equations

František Tumajer (1992)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper the notion of the derivative of the norm of a linear mapping in a normed vector space is introduced. The fundamental properties of the derivative of the norm are established. Using these properties, linear differential equations in a Banach space are studied and lower and upper estimates of the norms of their solutions are derived.

Derived cones to reachable sets of a nonlinear differential inclusion

Aurelian Cernea (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

We consider a nonlinear differential inclusion defined by a set-valued map with nonconvex values and we prove that the reachable set of a certain variational inclusion is a derived cone in the sense of Hestenes to the reachable set of the initial differential inclusion. In order to obtain the continuity property in the definition of a derived cone we use a continuous version of Filippov's theorem for solutions of our differential inclusion. As an application, in finite dimensional spaces, we obtain...

Design of unknown input fractional-order observers for fractional-order systems

Ibrahima N'Doye, Mohamed Darouach, Holger Voos, Michel Zasadzinski (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper considers a method of designing fractional-order observers for continuous-time linear fractional-order systems with unknown inputs. Conditions for the existence of these observers are given. Sufficient conditions for the asymptotical stability of fractional-order observer errors with the fractional order α satisfying 0 < α < 2 are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach, where the...

Déterminants et intégrales de Fresnel

Yves Colin de Verdière (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

On présente ici une approche directe et géométrique pour le calcul des déterminants d’opérateurs de type Schrödinger sur un graphe fini. Du calcul de l’intégrale de Fresnel associée, on déduit le déterminant. Le calcul des intégrales de Fresnel est grandement facilité par l’utilisation simultanée du théorème de Fubini et d’une version linéaire du calcul symbolique des opérateurs intégraux de Fourier. On obtient de façon directe une formule générale exprimant le déterminant en terme des conditions...

Determination of the diffusion operator on an interval

Ibrahim M. Nabiev (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

The inverse problem of spectral analysis for the diffusion operator with quasiperiodic boundary conditions is considered. A uniqueness theorem is proved, a solution algorithm is presented, and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the inverse problem are obtained.

Determining the domain of attraction of hybrid non–linear systems using maximal Lyapunov functions

Szabolcs Rozgonyi, Katalin M. Hangos, Gábor Szederkényi (2010)

Kybernetika

In this article a method is presented to find systematically the domain of attraction (DOA) of hybrid non-linear systems. It has already been shown that there exists a sequence of special kind of Lyapunov functions V n in a rational functional form approximating a maximal Lyapunov function V M that can be used to find an estimation for the DOA. Based on this idea, an improved method has been developed and implemented in a Mathematica-package to find such Lyapunov functions V n for a class of hybrid (piecewise...

Deterministic Chaos vs. Stochastic Fluctuation in an Eco-epidemic Model

P.S. Mandal, M. Banerjee (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

An eco-epidemiological model of susceptible Tilapia fish, infected Tilapia fish and Pelicans is investigated by several author based upon the work initiated by Chattopadhyay and Bairagi (Ecol. Model., 136, 103–112, 2001). In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of the same model by considering different parameters involved with the model as bifurcation parameters in details. Considering the intrinsic growth rate of susceptible Tilapia fish as bifurcation parameter, we demonstrate the period doubling...

Deterministic minimax impulse control in finite horizon: the viscosity solution approach

Brahim El Asri (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study here the impulse control minimax problem. We allow the cost functionals and dynamics to be unbounded and hence the value functions can possibly be unbounded. We prove that the value function of the problem is continuous. Moreover, the value function is characterized as the unique viscosity solution of an Isaacs quasi-variational inequality. This problem is in relation with an application in mathematical finance.

Devil's staircase route to chaos in a forced relaxation oscillator

Lluis Alsedà, Antonio Falcó (1994)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We use one-dimensional techniques to characterize the Devil’s staircase route to chaos in a relaxation oscillator of the van der Pol type with periodic forcing term. In particular, by using symbolic dynamics, we give the behaviour for certain range of parameter values of a Cantor set of solutions having a certain rotation set associated to a rational number. Finally, we explain the phenomena observed experimentally in the system by Kennedy, Krieg and Chua (in [10]) related with the appearance of...
