چکیده

We discuss recent results obtained for the Hamiltonian Mean Field model. The model describes a system of N fully-coupled particles in one dimension and shows a second-order phase transition from a clustered phase to a homogeneous one when the energy is increased. Strong chaos is found in correspondence to the critical point on top of a weak chaotic regime which characterizes the motion at low energies. For a small region around the critical point, we find anomalous (enhanced) diffusion and Lévy walks in a transient temporal regime before the system relaxes to equilibrium.

Superdiffusion and Out-of-Equilibrium Chaotic Dynamics with Many Degrees of Freedoms

We study the link between relaxation to the equilibrium and anomalous superdiffusive motion in a classical N-body Hamiltonian system with long-range interaction showing a second-order phase transition in the canonical ensemble. Anomalous diffusion is observed only in a transient out-ofequilibrium regime and for a small range of energy, below the critical one. Superdiffusion is due to Lévy walks...

Chaos in the Thermodynamic Limit 3

We study chaos in the Hamiltonian Mean Field model (HMF), a system with many degrees of freedom in which N classical rotators are fully coupled. We review the most important results on the dynamics and the thermodynamics of the HMF, and in particular we focus on the chaotic properties. We study the Lyapunov exponents and the Kolmogorov– Sinai entropy, namely their dependence on the number of de...

Mechanical System Modelling of Robot Dynamics Using a Mass/Pulley Model

The well-known electro-mechanical analogy that equates current, voltage, resistance, inductance and capacitance to force, velocity, damping, spring constant and mass has a shortcoming in that mass can only be used to simulate a capacitor which has one terminal connected to ground. A new model that was previously proposed by the authors that combines a mass with a pulley (MP) is shown to simulat...

Numerical Study of Quantum Resonances in Chaotic Scattering

This paper presents numerical evidence that for quantum systems with chaotic classical dynamics, the number of scattering resonances near an energy E scales like h D(KE)+1 2 as h ! 0. Here, KE denotes the subset of the classical energy surface fH = Eg which stays bounded for all time under the flow generated by the Hamiltonian H and D (KE) denotes its fractal dimension. Since the number of boun...

Measures of Chaos in Hamiltonian Systems

Hamiltonian systems with two or more degrees of freedom are generally nonintegrable which usually involves chaotic dynamics. The size of the chaotic sets determines for a large part the nature and influence of chaos. Near stable equilibrium we can obtain normal forms that often produce ‘formal integrability’ of the Hamiltonian system and at the same time produce rigorous but not necessarily opt...
