We study the formation and evolution of chaotic breathers (CBs) on the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam oscillator chain with quartic nonlinearity (FPU-beta system). Starting with most of the energy in a single high-frequency mode, the mode is found to breakup on a fast time scale into a number of spatially localized structures (CBs) which, on a slower time scale, coalesce into a single CB. On a usually longer time scale, depending strongly on the energy, the CB gives up its energy to lower frequency modes, approaching energy equipartition among modes. We analyze the behavior, theoretically, using an envelope approximation to the discrete chain of oscillators. For fixed boundaries, periodic nonlinear solutions are found. The numerical structures formed after the fast breakup are found to approximate the underlying equilibrium. These structures are shown, theoretically, to undergo slow translational motions, and an estimated time for them to coalesce into a single chaotic breather are found to agree with the numerically determined scaling tau (B) alpha E-1. A previously developed theory of the decay of the CB amplitude to approach equipartition is modified to explicitly consider the interaction of the breather with background modes. The scaling to equipartition of T-eq alpha E-2 agrees with the numerical scaling and gives the correct order of magnitude of T-eq.

Energy spectrum of extended Hubbard model with spin-dependent hopping and related spin ladder model Cheranovskii, VO; Ezerskaya, EV; Özkan, İlker (2002-06-15) We studied the energy spectrum of the 1-D extended Hubbard model with spin-dependent hopping and related spin ladder system formed by two coupled XXZ spin 1/2 chains with the interchain interaction of Ising type. It was proved that the model excitation spectrum has no gap excepting some special values of z-projection of the ground-state total spin. The thorough analytic consideration of two-magnon states was given. The existence tip to five bound states at specified value of quasimomentum of the pair of inv...
Hierarchical discrete event systems with inputs and outputs Perk, Sebastian; Moor, Thomas; Schmidt, Klaus Verner (null; 2006-12-01) We propose a framework for the hierarchical design of discrete event systems that addresses both safety and liveness properties. Technically, we build on a notion of inputs and outputs that is closely related to J.C. Willems' behavioural systems theory. We develop a structural admissibility condition that allows for abstraction-based controller synthesis similar to previous work on hybrid control systems. A key feature of our framework is an alternation of subsystem composition and controller synthesis that...
Quantitative analysis of nonlinear dynamics of quantum light transmission in strongly coupled quantum dot-cavity systems Tugen, Alperen; Kocaman, Serdar (Elsevier BV, 2019-04-01) We compared transmission spectra of coupled high-Q cavity with quantum dot (QD) systems in the strong coupling regime with Input-Output Formalism (IOF) and Incoherent Pumping Mechanism (IPM) based on Lindblad master equation approach. The peak transmission of Dipole Induced Transparency (DIT) together with its full-width-half-maximum (FWHM) are enquired for detailed analysis. Both methods exhibit the same vacuum Rabi splitting in on-resonant case, in contrast, the peak of DIT is estimated smaller between 50...
Pattern formation in time series systems due to viscoelastic behavior: Case studies in uniform distribution, normal distribution, stock market index, and music Gündüz, Güngör (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2018-09-01) A new methodology was introduced to investigate the pattern formation in time series systems due to their viscoelastic behavior. Four stochastic processes, uniform distribution, normal distribution, Nasdaq-100 stock market index, and a melody were studied within this context. The time series data were converted into vectorial forms in a scattering diagram. The sequential vectors can be split into its in-line (or conservative) and out-of-line (or dissipative) components. Thus, one can define the storage and ...
Hierarchical control with partial observations: Sufficient conditions Boutin, Olivier; Komenda, Jan; Masopust, Tomas; Schmidt, Klaus Verner; Van Schuppen, Jan H. (2011-12-01) In this paper, hierarchical control of both monolithic and modular discrete-event systems under partial observations is studied. Two new conditions, called observation consistency and local observation consistency, are proposed. These conditions are sufficient for the preservation of observability between the original and the abstracted plant. Moreover, it is shown that both conditions are compositional, that is, they are preserved by the synchronous product. This property makes it possible to use hierarchi...
