Chaos, extremism and optimism: Volume analysis of learning in games

YK Cheung, G Piliouras - Advances in Neural Information …, 2020 - proceedings.neurips.cc
We perform volume analysis of Multiplicative Weights Updates (MWU) and its optimistic
variant (OMWU) in zero-sum as well as coordination games. Our analysis provides new …

Stability and bifurcations of heteroclinic cycles of type Z

O Podvigina - Nonlinearity, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
Dynamical systems that are invariant under the action of a non-trivial symmetry group can
possess structurally stable heteroclinic cycles. In this paper, we study stability properties of a …

Heteroclinic dynamics of localized frequency synchrony: Stability of heteroclinic cycles and networks

C Bick, A Lohse - Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2019 - Springer
Coupled populations of identical phase oscillators with higher-order interactions can give
rise to heteroclinic cycles between invariant sets where populations show distinct …

Stability of quasi-simple heteroclinic cycles

L Garrido-da-Silva, SBSD Castro - Dynamical Systems, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
The stability of heteroclinic cycles may be obtained from the value of the local stability index
along each connection of the cycle. We establish a way of calculating the local stability index …

Behaviour of trajectories near a two-cycle heteroclinic network

O Podvigina - Dynamical Systems, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
Heteroclinic networks and cycles are invariant sets comprised of interacting nodes
connected by heteroclinic trajectories. Often the sets are not asymptotically stable but attract …

Chaotic dynamics in asymmetric rock-paper-scissors games

W Hu, G Zhang, H Tian, Z Wang - IEEE Access, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Evolutionary game dynamics is a combination of game theory and dynamical systems.
Using dynamical theory, we investigate chaotic behavior in asymmetric Rock-Paper …

Finite switching near heteroclinic networks

S Castro, L Garrido-da-Silva - Nonlinearity, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We address the level of complexity that can be observed in the dynamics near a robust
heteroclinic network. We show that infinite switching, which is a path towards chaos, does …

Classification and stability of simple homoclinic cycles in

O Podvigina - Nonlinearity, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
Heteroclinic cycles, unions of equilibria and connection trajectories, can be structurally
stable in a Γ-equivariant system due to the existence of invariant subspaces. A structurally …

Construction of heteroclinic networks in

A Lohse, SBSD Castro - arxiv preprint arxiv:1504.05459, 2015 - arxiv.org
We study heteroclinic networks in $\mathbb {R}^ 4$, made of a certain type of simple robust
heteroclinic cycle. In simple cycles all the connections are of saddle-sink type in two …

Stability of a heteroclinic network and its cycles: a case study from Boussinesq convection

O Podvigina, SBSD Castro, IS Labouriau - Dynamical Systems, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
This article is concerned with three heteroclinic cycles forming a heteroclinic network in R 6.
The stability of the cycles and of the network is studied. The cycles are of a type that has not …
