Chaotic dynamics can be considered as a physical phenomenon that bridges the regular
evolution of systems with the random one. These two alternative states of physical …

Advances in processing technology, such as quantum‐well structures and dry‐etching
techniques, have made it possible to create new types of two‐dimensional (2D) microcavity …

This book deals with one of the fundamental problems of nonequilibrium statistical
mechanics: the explanation of large-scale dynamics (evolution differential equations) from …

The dynamics of realistic Hamiltonian systems has unusual microscopic features that are
direct consequences of its fractional space-time structure and its phase space topology. The …

Dynamical systems and their linear stability; 2. Topological chaos; 3. Liouvillian dynamics; 4.
Probabalistic chaos; 5. Chaotic scattering; 6. Scattering theory of transport; 7. Hydrodynamic …

For dynamical systems of large spatial extension giving rise to transport phenomena, like the
Lorentz gas, we establish a relationship between the transport coefficient and the difference …

We use a constant “driving force” F d together with a Gaussian thermostatting “constraint
force” F d to simulate a nonequilibrium steady-state current (particle velocity) in a periodic …

We study the asymptotic statistical behavior of the 2-dimensional periodic Lorentz gas with
an infinite horizon. We consider a particle moving freely in the plane with elastic reflections …

A valuable introduction for newcomers as well as an important reference and source of
inspiration for established researchers, this book provides an up-to-date summary of central …

Transport phenomena plays an important role in science and technology. In the wide variety
of applications both advection and diffusion may appear. Regarding diffusion, for long times …
