Generic Nekhoroshev theory without small divisors

Abed Bounemoura, Laurent Niederman (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this article, we present a new approach of Nekhoroshev’s theory for a generic unperturbed Hamiltonian which completely avoids small divisors problems. The proof is an extension of a method introduced by P. Lochak, it combines averaging along periodic orbits with simultaneous Diophantine approximation and uses geometric arguments designed by the second author to handle generic integrable Hamiltonians. This method allows to deal with generic non-analytic Hamiltonians and to obtain new results of...

Global stability of steady solutions for a model in virus dynamics

Hermano Frid, Pierre-Emmanuel Jabin, Benoît Perthame (2003)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We consider a simple model for the immune system in which virus are able to undergo mutations and are in competition with leukocytes. These mutations are related to several other concepts which have been proposed in the literature like those of shape or of virulence – a continuous notion. For a given species, the system admits a globally attractive critical point. We prove that mutations do not affect this picture for small perturbations and under strong structural assumptions. Based on numerical...

Global Stability of Steady Solutions for a Model in Virus Dynamics

Group synchronization of diffusively coupled harmonic oscillators

Liyun Zhao, Jun Liu, Lan Xiang, Jin Zhou (2016)

Kybernetika

This paper considers group synchronization issue of diffusively directed coupled harmonic oscillators for two cases with nonidentical and identical agent dynamics. For the case of coupled nonidentical harmonic oscillators with positive coupling, it is demonstrated that distributed group synchronization can always be achieved under two kinds of network structures, i. e., the strongly connected graph and the acyclic partition topology with a directed spanning tree. It is interesting to find that the...

Impulsive practical synchronization of n-dimensional nonautonomous systems with parameter mismatch

Mihua Ma, Hua Zhang, Jianping Cai, Jin Zhou (2013)

Kybernetika

This paper is concerned with impulsive practical synchronization in a class of n-dimensional nonautonomous dynamical systems with parameter mismatch. Some simple yet general algebraic synchronization criteria are derived based on the developed practical stability theory on impulsive dynamical systems. A distinctive feature of this work is that the impulsive control strategy is used to make n-dimensional nonautonomous dynamical systems with parameter mismatch achieve practical synchronization, where...

Mathematical models of suspension bridges

Gabriela Tajčová (1997)

Applications of Mathematics

In this work we try to explain various mathematical models describing the dynamical behaviour of suspension bridges such as the Tacoma Narrows bridge. Our attention is concentrated on the derivation of these models, an interpretation of particular parameters and on a discussion of their advantages and disadvantages. Our work should be a starting point for a qualitative study of dynamical structures of this type and that is why we have a closer look at the models, which have not been studied in literature...
