Heteroclinic Connection of Periodic Solutions of Delay Differential Equations

For a certain class of delay equations with piecewise constant nonlinearities we prove the existence of a rapidly oscillating stable periodic solution and a rapidly oscillating unstable periodic solution. Introducing an appropriate Poincaré map, the dynamics of the system may essentially be reduced to a two dimensional map, the periodic solutions being represented by a stable and a hyperbolic fixed point. We show that the two dimensional map admits a one dimensional invariant manifold containing the two fixed points. It follows that the delay equations under consideration admit a one parameter family of rapidly oscillating heteroclinic solutions connecting the rapidly oscillating unstable periodic solution with the rapidly oscillating stable periodic solution.      

Topological Dynamics for Monotone Skew-Product Semiflows with Applications

Classical techniques of topological dynamics are used to prove a flow extension result for linearly stable minimal sets in monotone and differentiable skew-product semiflows. Moreover, motivated by the field of delay equations, a new version of the concept of continuous separation is introduced and studied in an abstract setting. The application of these results to the skew-product semiflows defined by almost periodic ordinary differential equations, delay equations and parabolic partial differential equations permits us to extend previous results guaranteeing the presence of almost automorphic minimal sets.     

Global bifurcations in externally excited autoparametric systems

We consider an autoparametric system consisting of an oscillator coupled with an externally excited subsystem. The oscillator and the subsystem are in one-to-one internal resonance. The excited subsystem is in primary resonance. The method of second-order averaging is used to obtain a set of autonomous equations of the second-order approximations to the externally excited system with autoparametric resonance. The Šhilnikov-type homoclinic orbits and chaotic dynamics of the averaged equations are studied in detail. The global bifurcation analysis indicates that there exist the heteroclinic bifurcations and the Šhilnikov-type homoclinic orbits in the averaged equations. The results obtained above mean the existence of the amplitude-modulated chaos for the Smale horseshoe sense in the externally excited system with autoparametric resonance. Furthermore, a detailed bifurcation analysis of the dynamic (periodic and chaotic) solutions of the averaged equations is presented. Nine branches of dynamic solutions are found. Two of these branches emerge from two Hopf bifurcations and the other seven are isolated. The limit cycles undergo symmetry-breaking, cyclic-fold and period-doubling bifurcations, whereas the chaotic attractors undergo attractor-merging and boundary crises. Simultaneous occurrence of the limit cycle and chaotic attractors, homoclinic orbits, intermittency chaos and homoclinic explosions are also observed.     

Intermittency as a codimension-three phenomenon

We analyze the interaction of three Hopf modes and show that locally a bifurcation gives rise to intermittency between three periodic solutions. This phenomenon can occur naturally in three-parameter families. Consider a vector fieldf with an equilibrium and suppose that the linearization off about this equilibrium has three rationally independent complex conjugate pairs of eigenvalues on the imaginary axis. As the parameters are varied, generically three branches of periodic solutions bifurcate from the steady-state solution. Using Birkhoff normal form, we can approximatef close to the bifurcation point by a vector field commuting with the symmetry group of the three-torus. The resulting system decouples into phase amplitude equations. The main part of the analysis concentrates on the amplitude equations in R³ that commute with an action ofZ ₂+Z ₂+Z ₂. Under certain conditions, there exists an asymptotically stable heteroclinic cycle. A similar example of such a phenomenon can be found in recent work by Guckenheimer and Holmes. The heteroclinic cycle connects three fixed points in the amplitude equations that correspond to three periodic orbits of the vector field in Birkhoff normal form. We can considerf as being an arbitrarily small perturbation of such a vector field. For this perturbation, the heteroclinic cycle disappears, but an invariant region where it was is still stable. Thus, we show that nearby solutions will still cycle around among the three periodic orbits.     

Pseudo Almost Periodic Solutions to a Class of Semilinear Differential Equations

This paper is concerned with the existence and uniqueness of pseudo almost periodic solutions to a class of semilinear differential equations involving the algebraic sum of two (possibly noncommuting) densely defined closed linear operators acting on a Hilbert space. Sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of pseudo almost periodic solutions to those semilinear equations are obtained. An erratum to this article is available at .     

Existence,Uniqueness, and Stability of Generalized Traveling Waves in Time Dependent Monostable Equations

The current paper is devoted to the study of traveling wave solutions of spatially homogeneous monostable reaction diffusion equations with ergodic or recurrent time dependence, which includes periodic and almost periodic time dependence as special cases. Such an equation has two spatially homogeneous and time recurrent solutions with one of them being stable and the other being unstable. Traveling wave solutions are a type of entire solutions connecting the two spatially homogeneous and time recurrent solutions. Recently, the author of the current paper proved that a spatially homogeneous time almost periodic monostable equation has a spreading speed in any given direction. This result can be easily extended to monostable equations with recurrent time dependence. In this paper, we introduce generalized traveling wave solutions for time recurrent monostable equations and show the existence of such solutions in any given direction with average propagating speed greater than or equal to the spreading speed in that direction and non-existence of such solutions of slower average propagating speed. We also show the uniqueness and stability of generalized traveling wave solutions in any given direction with average propagating speed greater than the spreading speed in that direction. Moreover, we show that a generalized traveling wave solution in a given direction with average propagating speed greater than the spreading speed in that direction is unique ergodic in the sense that its wave profile and wave speed are unique ergodic, and if the time dependence of the monostable equation is almost periodic, it is almost periodic in the sense that its wave profile and wave speed are almost periodic.     

Almost Periodic Solutions and Global Attractors of Non-autonomous Navier–Stokes Equations

The article is devoted to the study of non-autonomous Navier–Stokes equations. First, the authors have proved that such systems admit compact global attractors. This problem is formulated and solved in the terms of general non-autonomous dynamical systems. Second, they have obtained conditions of convergence of non-autonomous Navier–Stokes equations. Third, a criterion for the existence of almost periodic (quasi periodic, almost automorphic, recurrent, pseudo recurrent) solutions of non-autonomous Navier–Stokes equations is given. Finally, the authors have derived a global averaging principle for non-autonomous Navier–Stokes equations.     

Bounded Correctors in Almost Periodic Homogenization

We show that certain linear elliptic equations (and systems) in divergence form with almost periodic coefficients have bounded, almost periodic correctors. This is proved under a new condition we introduce which quantifies the almost periodic assumption and includes (but is not restricted to) the class of smooth, quasiperiodic coefficient fields which satisfy a Diophantine-type condition previously considered by Kozlov (Mat Sb (N.S), 107(149):199–217, 1978). The proof is based on a quantitative ergodic theorem for almost periodic functions combined with the new regularity theory recently introduced by Armstrong and Shen (Pure Appl Math, 2016) for equations with almost periodic coefficients. This yields control on spatial averages of the gradient of the corrector, which is converted into estimates on the size of the corrector itself via a multiscale Poincaré-type inequality.     

Delay equations with fluctuating delay related to the regenerative chatter

The mathematical models representing machine tool chatter dynamics have been cast as differential equations with delay. In this paper, non-linear delay differential equations with periodic delays which model the machine tool chatter with continuously modulated spindle speed are studied. The explicit time-dependent delay terms, due to spindle speed modulation, are replaced by state-dependent delay terms by augmenting the original equations. The augmented system of equations is autonomous and has two pairs of pure imaginary eigenvalues without resonance. The reduced bifurcation equation is obtained by making use of Lyapunov-Schmidt Reduction method. By using the reduced bifurcation equations, the periodic solutions are determined to analyze the tool motion. Analytical results show both modest increase of stability and existence of periodic solutions near the new stability boundary.     

Computational methods for global analysis of homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits: A case study

In earlier paper we have developed a numerical method for the computation of branches of heteroclinic orbits for a system of autonomous ordinary differential equations in ⁿ . The idea of the method is to reduce a boundary value problem on the real line to a boundary value problem on a finite interval by using linear approximation of the unstable and stable manifolds. In this paper we extend our algorithm to incorporate higher-order approximations of the unstable and stable manifolds. This approximation is especially useful if we want to compute center manifolds accurately. A procedure for switching between the periodic approximation of homoclinic orbits and the higher-order approximation of homoclinic orbits provides additional flexibility to the method. The algorithm is applied to a model problem: the DC Josephson Junction. Computations are done using the software package AUTO.     

Multiscale Young Measures in almost Periodic Homogenization and Applications

We prove the existence of multiscale Young measures associated with almost periodic homogenization. We give applications of this tool in the homogenization of nonlinear partial differential equations with an almost periodic structure, such as scalar conservation laws, nonlinear transport equations, Hamilton–Jacobi equations and fully nonlinear elliptic equations. Motivated by the application in nonlinear transport equations, we also prove basic results on flows generated by Lipschitz almost periodic vector fields, which are of interest in their own. In our analysis, an important role is played by the so-called Bohr compactification of ; this is a natural parameter space for the Young measures. Our homogenization results provide also the asymptotic behavior for the whole set of -translates of the solutions, which is in the spirit of recent studies on the homogenization of stationary ergodic processes.     

On the Two-Dimensional Euler Equations with Spatially Almost Periodic Initial Data

We consider the nonstationary Euler equations in \mathbbR²{\mathbb{R}}^2 with almost periodic unbounded vorticity. We show that a unique solution is always spatially almost periodic at any time when the almost periodic initial data belongs to some function space. In order to prove this, we demonstrate the continuity with respect to initial data which do not decay at spatial infinity. The proof of the continuity with respect to initial data is based on that of Vishik’s uniqueness theorem.

Resonant many-mode periodic and chaotic self-sustained aeroelastic vibrations of cantilever plates with geometrical non-linearities in incompressible flow

The plates interacting with inviscid, incompressible, potential gas flow are analyzed. Many modes interaction is considered to describe self-sustained vibrations of plates. The singular integral equation is solved to obtain gas pressures acting on the plate. The Von Karman equations with respect to three displacements are used to describe the plate geometrical non-linear vibrations. The Galerkin method is applied to each partial differential equation to obtain the finite-degree-of-freedom model of the plate vibrations. Self-sustained vibrations, which take place due to the Hopf bifurcation, are investigated. These vibrations undergo the Naimark?CSacker bifurcation and the periodic motions are transformed into the almost periodic ones. If the stream velocity is increased, almost periodic motions are transformed into chaotic ones. As a result of the internal resonance, the saturation of the vibration mode is observed. The non-linear dynamics of low- and high-aspect-ratio plates is analyzed.

On the implementation of symmetric and antisymmetric periodic boundary conditions for incompressible flow

In this paper we consider symmetric and antisymmetric periodic boundary conditions for flows governed by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Classical periodic boundary conditions are studied as well as symmetric and antisymmetric periodic boundary conditions in which there is a pressure difference between inlet and outlet. The implementation of this type of boundary conditions in a finite element code using the penalty function formulation is treated and also the implementation in a finite volume code based on pressure correction. The methods are demonstrated by computation of a flow through a staggered tube bundle.
