# gst: irreversibility in scalar active turbulence, the role of topological defects.


<< ️In many active systems, swimmers collectively stir the surrounding fluid to stabilize some self-sustained vortices. The resulting nonequilibrium state is often referred to as active turbulence, by analogy with the turbulence of passive fluids under external stirring. Although active turbulence clearly operates far from equilibrium, it can be challenging to pinpoint which emergent features primarily control the deviation from an equilibrium reversible dynamics. >>

Here, AA << reveal that dynamical irreversibility essentially stems from singularities in the active stress. Specifically, considering the coupled dynamics of the swimmer density and the stream function, (AA) demonstrate that the symmetries of vortical flows around defects determine the overall irreversibility. (Their) detailed analysis leads to identifying specific configurations of defect pairs as the dominant contribution to irreversibility. >>

# gst: self-feedback delay induces extreme events in the theoretical Brusselator system.

AA << ️present a study of the theoretical Brusselator model with time-delayed self-feedback, demonstrating its ability to induce extreme events when delays in reaction processes significantly influence subsequent dynamics, with and without diffusion. >>

<< ️Stability analyses reveal the mechanisms driving this behavior with respect to the delay time. The occurrence of extreme events is validated using various numerical and statistical tools, including phase portraits, time series, probability distribution functions, return periods, and spatiotemporal evolution. >>

<< ️A comprehensive two-parameter scan delineates the parameter regimes where the extreme events emerge, alongside the identification of transient chaos within specific regions of the parameter space. To confirm these numerical findings, (AA) constructed an analog electronic circuit that emulates the model, providing experimental validation of the predicted dynamics. >>

# gst: dynamics and chaotic properties of the fully disordered Kuramoto model.

<< ️Frustrated random interactions are a key ingredient of spin glasses. From this perspective, (AA) study the dynamics of the Kuramoto model with quenched random couplings: the simplest oscillator ensemble with fully disordered interactions. (AA) answer some open questions by means of extensive numerical simulations and a perturbative calculation (the cavity method). (They) show frequency entrainment is not realized in the thermodynamic limit and that chaotic dynamics are pervasive in parameter space.  >>

<< ️In the weak coupling regime, (AA) find closed formulas for the frequency shift and the dissipativeness of the model. Interestingly, the largest Lyapunov exponent is found to exhibit the same asymptotic dependence on the coupling constant irrespective of the coupling asymmetry, within the numerical accuracy. >>

AA << ️report on the emergence of chimera states in extended systems characterized by the coexistence of more than two spatiotemporal solutions. Specifically, (They) show that three-domain chimeras may generically appear in reaction-diffusion systems under three conditions, with a crucial role played by the existence of a Maxwell point. >>

# gst: transient and steady-state chaos in dissipative quantum systems.


<< Dissipative quantum chaos plays a central role in the characterization and control of information scrambling, non-unitary evolution, and thermalization, but it still lacks a precise definition. >>

AA << properly restore the quantum-classical correspondence through a dynamical approach based on entanglement entropy and out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs), which reveal signatures of chaos beyond spectral statistics. Focusing on the open anisotropic Dicke model, (They) identify two distinct regimes: transient chaos, marked by rapid early-time growth of entanglement and OTOCs followed by low saturation values, and steady-state chaos, characterized by high long-time values. >>

AA << introduce a random matrix toy model and show that Ginibre spectral statistics signals short-time chaos rather than steady-state chaos. (Their) results establish entanglement dynamics and OTOCs as reliable diagnostics of dissipative quantum chaos across different timescales. >>

# gst: turbulence spreading and anomalous diffusion on combs.

<< This (AA) paper presents a simple model for such processes as chaos spreading or turbulence spillover into stable regions. In this simple model the essential transport occurs via inelastic resonant interactions of waves on a lattice. The process is shown to result universally in a subdiffusive spreading of the wave field. The dispersion of this spreading process is found to depend exclusively on the type of the interaction process (three- or four-wave), but not on a particular underlying instability. The asymptotic transport equations for field spreading are derived with the aid of a specific geometric construction in the form of a comb. >>

<< The results can be summarized by stating that the asymptotic spreading proceeds as a continuous-time random walk (CTRW) and corresponds to a kinetic description in terms of fractional-derivative equations. The fractional indexes pertaining to these equations are obtained exactly using the comb model. >>

<< A special case of the above theory is a situation in which two waves with oppositely directed wave vectors couple together to form a bound state with zero momentum. This situation is considered separately and associated with the self-organization of wave-like turbulence into banded flows or staircases. >>

<< Overall, (AA) find that turbulence spreading and staircasing could be described based on the same mathematical formalism, using the Hamiltonian of inelastic wave-wave interactions and a mapping procedure into the comb space. Theoretically, the comb approach is regarded as a substitute for a more common description based on quasilinear theory. Some implications of the present theory for the fusion plasma studies are discussed and a comparison with the available observational and numerical evidence is given. >>

# gst: far-from-equilibrium complex landscapes


<< Systems with a complex dynamics like glasses or models of biological evolution are often pictured in terms of a complex landscape, with a large number of possible collective states. (AA) show on the example of a stochastic spin model with nonreciprocal and heterogeneous interactions how the complex landscape picture can be generalized far from equilibrium, where collective states may become time-dependent and exhibit, e.g., spontaneous oscillations, often hidden by the presence of disorder. >>

AA << identify relevant observables, like the density of entropy production rate, to unveil the spontaneous collective time dependence, and  determine a configurational entropy which counts the number of oscillating collective states when this number grows exponentially with system size. >>

# gst: a note on spinning billiards and chaos


AA << investigate the impact of internal degrees of freedom - specifically spin - on the classical dynamics of billiard systems. While traditional studies model billiards as point particles undergoing specular reflection, (AA) extend the paradigm by incorporating finite-size effects and angular momentum, introducing a dimensionless spin parameter that characterizes the moment of inertia. Using numerical simulations across circular, rectangular, stadium, and Sinai geometries, (AA) analyze the resulting trajectories and quantify chaos via the leading Lyapunov exponent. >>

<< Strikingly, (They) find that spin regularizes the dynamics even in geometries that are classically chaotic: for a wide range of α, the Lyapunov exponent vanishes at late times in the stadium and Sinai tables, signaling suppression of chaos. This effect is corroborated by phase space analysis showing non-exponential divergence of nearby trajectories. >>

AA << results suggest that internal structure can qualitatively alter the dynamical landscape of a system, potentially serving as a mechanism for chaos suppression in broader contexts. >>

# gst: unstable fixed points in chaotic networks

<< Understanding the high-dimensional chaotic dynamics occurring in complex biological systems such as recurrent neural networks or ecosystems remains a conceptual challenge. For low-dimensional dynamics, fixed points provide the geometric scaffold of the dynamics. However, in high-dimensional systems, even the location of fixed points is unknown. >>

Here, AA << analytically determine the number and distribution of fixed points for a canonical model of a recurrent neural network that exhibits high-dimensional chaos. This distribution reveals that fixed points and dynamics are confined to separate shells in state space. Furthermore, the distribution enables (AA) to determine the eigenvalue spectra of the Jacobian at the fixed points, showing that each fixed point has a low-dimensional unstable manifold. >>

<< Despite the radial separation of fixed points and dynamics, (They)  find that the principal components of fixed points and dynamics align and that nearby fixed points act as partially attracting landmarks for the dynamics. >>

AA results << provide a detailed characterization of the fixed point geometry and its interplay with the dynamics, thereby paving the way towards a geometric understanding of high-dimensional chaos through their skeleton of unstable fixed points. >>

# gst: elasticity of fibers prefers the chaos of turbulence.

<< The dynamics of fibers, modeled as a sequence of inertial beads linked via elastic springs, in turbulent flows is dictated by a nontrivial interplay of inertia and elasticity. Such elastic, inertial fibers preferentially sample a three-dimensional turbulent flow in a manner that is qualitatively similar to that in two dimensions [R. Singh et al., Phys. Rev. E 101, 053105 (2020)]. >>

<< Both these intrinsic features have competing effects on fiber dynamics: Inertia drives fibers away from vortices while elasticity tends to trap them inside. However, these effects swap roles at very large values. A large inertia makes the fibers sample the flow more uniformly while a very large elasticity facilitates the sampling of straining regions. >>

<< This complex sampling behavior is further corroborated by quantifying the chaotic nature of sampled flow regions. This is achieved by evaluating the maximal Lagrangian Lyapunov Exponents associated with the flow along fiber trajectories. >>

# gst: hyperchaos and complex dynamical regimes in N-d neuron lattices.


AA << study the dynamics of N-dimensional lattices of nonchaotic Rulkov neurons coupled with a flow of electrical current. (They) consider both nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor couplings, homogeneous and heterogeneous neurons, and small and large lattices over a wide range of electrical coupling strengths. >>

<< As the coupling strength is varied, the neurons exhibit a number of complex dynamical regimes, including unsynchronized chaotic spiking, local quasi-bursting, synchronized chaotic bursting, and synchronized hyperchaos. >>

<< For lattices in higher spatial dimensions, (AA) discover dynamical effects arising from the ``destructive interference'' of many connected neurons and miniature ``phase transitions'' from coordinated spiking threshold crossings. In large two- and three-dimensional neuron lattices, (They) observe emergent dynamics such as local synchronization, quasi-synchronization, and lag synchronization. >>

# gst: overcoming overly simplistic representations, chaos and regularity in an anisotropic soft squircle billiard.


<< A hard-wall billiard is a mathematical model describing the confinement of a free particle that collides specularly and instantaneously with boundaries and discontinuities. >>

<< Soft billiards are a generalization that includes a smooth boundary whose dynamics are governed by Hamiltonian equations and overcome overly simplistic representations. >>

AA << study the dynamical features of an anisotropic soft-wall squircle billiard. This curve is a geometric figure that seamlessly blends the angularity of a square with the smooth curves of a circle. (AA) characterize the billiard's emerging trajectories, exhibiting the onset of chaos and its alternation with regularity in the parameter space. (They) characterize the transition to chaos and the stabilization of the dynamics by revealing the nonlinearity of the parameters (squarness, ellipticity, and hardness) via the computation of Poincaré surfaces of section and the Lyapunov exponent across the parameter space. >>

# gst: emergent oscillations and chaos in noncompliant microfluidic networks.

<< Incompressible fluids in microfluidic networks with nonrigid channels can exhibit flow rate oscillations analogous to electric current oscillations in RLC (resistor, inductor, capacitor) circuits. This is due to the elastic deformation of channel walls that can store and release fluid, as electric capacitors can store and release electric charges. This property is quantified through the compliance of the system, defined as the volume change relative to the pressure change. >>

<< In systems with rigid walls and incompressible fluid, compliance vanishes, and no oscillations can occur through this mechanism. >>

Here, AA << show that not only oscillations but also chaos can emerge in the flow-rate dynamics of noncompliant microfluidic networks with incompressible fluid. Notably, these dynamics emerge spontaneously, even under time-independent driving pressures. The underlying mechanism is governed by the effect of fluid inertia, which becomes relevant at moderate Reynolds numbers observed in microfluidic systems exhibiting complex flow patterns. >>

<< The results are established using a combination of direct numerical simulations and a reduced model derived from modal analysis. This approach enables (AA) to determine the onset of oscillations, the associated bifurcations, the oscillation frequencies and amplitudes, and their dependence on the driving pressures. >>

# gst: period-doubling route to chaos in viscoelastic flows

<< Polymer solutions can develop chaotic flows, even at low inertia. This purely elastic turbulence is well studied, but little is known about the transition to chaos. In two-dimensional (2D) channel flow and parallel shear flow, traveling wave solutions involving coherent structures are present for sufficiently large fluid elasticity. >>

AA << numerically study 2D periodic parallel shear flow in viscoelastic fluids, and (They) show that these traveling waves become oscillatory and undergo a series of period-doubling bifurcations en-route to chaos. >>

# gst: strange attractors in complex networks

<< Disorder and noise in physical systems often disrupt spatial and temporal regularity, yet chaotic systems reveal how order can emerge from unpredictable behavior. Complex networks, spatial analogs of chaos, exhibit disordered, non-Euclidean architectures with hidden symmetries, hinting at spontaneous order. Finding low-dimensional embeddings that reveal network patterns and link them to dimensionality that governs universal behavior remains a fundamental open challenge, as it needs to bridge the gap between microscopic disorder and macroscopic regularities. >>

# gst: weird quasiperiodic attractors


AA << consider a class of n-dimensional, n≥2, piecewise linear discontinuous maps that can exhibit a new type of attractor, called a weird quasiperiodic attractor. While the dynamics associated with these attractors may appear chaotic, (They)  prove that chaos cannot occur. The considered class of n-dimensional maps allows for any finite number of partitions, separated by various types of discontinuity sets. The key characteristic, beyond discontinuity, is that all functions defining the map have the same real fixed point. These maps cannot have hyperbolic cycles other than the fixed point itself. >>

# gst: chaotic and time-periodic edge states in square duct flow.


AA << analyse the dynamics within the stability boundary between laminar and turbulent square duct flow with the aid of an edge-tracking algorithm. As for the circular pipe, the edge state turns out to be a chaotic attractor within the edge if the flow is not constrained to a symmetric subspace. The chaotic edge state dynamics is characterised by a sequence of alternating quiescent phases and regularly occurring bursting episodes. These latter reflect the different stages of the well-known streak-vortex interaction in near-wall turbulence: the edge states feature most of the time a single streak with a number of flanking quasi-streamwise vortices attached to one of the four surrounding walls. The initially straight streak undergoes the classical linear instability and eventually breaks in an intense bursting event due to the action of the quasi-streamwise vortices. At the same time, the vortices give rise to a new generation of low-speed streaks at one of the neighbouring walls, thereby causing the turbulent activity to `switch' from one wall to the other. >>

<< When restricting the edge dynamics to a single or twofold mirror-symmetric subspace, on the other hand, the outlined bursting and wall-switching episodes become self-recurrent in time. These edge states thus represent the first periodic orbits found in the square duct. In contrast to the chaotic edge states in the non-symmetric case, the imposed symmetries enforce analogue bursting cycles to simultaneously appear at two parallel opposing walls in a mirror-symmetric configuration. Both localisation of the turbulent activity to one or two walls and wall switching are shown to be a common phenomenon in low Reynolds number duct turbulence. (They) therefore argue that the marginally turbulent trajectories transiently visit the identified edge states during these episodes, so that the edge states become actively involved in the turbulent dynamics. >>️

# epidem: societal self-regulation appears to induce complex infection dynamics and chaos.


<< Classically, endemic infectious diseases are expected to display relatively stable, predictable infection dynamics. Accordingly, basic disease models such as the susceptible-infected-recovered-susceptible model display stable endemic states or recurrent seasonal waves. However, if the human population reacts to high infection numbers by mitigating the spread of the disease, then this delayed behavioral feedback loop can generate infection waves itself, driven by periodic mitigation and subsequent relaxation. >>

AA << show that such behavioral reactions, together with a seasonal effect of comparable impact, can cause complex and unpredictable infection dynamics, including Arnold tongues, coexisting attractors, and chaos. >>

<< Importantly, these arise in epidemiologically relevant parameter regions where the costs associated to infections and mitigation are jointly minimized. By comparing (Their) model to data, (AA) find signs that COVID-19 was mitigated in a way that favored complex infection dynamics. (AA)  results challenge the intuition that endemic disease dynamics necessarily implies predictability and seasonal waves and show the emergence of complex infection dynamics when humans optimize their reaction to increasing infection numbers. >>️

# gst: synchronization and chaos in complex systems with delayed interactions.


<< Explaining the wide range of dynamics observed in ecological communities is challenging due to the large number of species involved, the complex network of interactions among them, and the influence of multiple environmental variables. >>

AA << consider a general framework to model the dynamics of species-rich communities under the effects of external environmental factors, showing that it naturally leads to delayed interactions between species, and analyze the impact of such memory effects on population dynamics. >>

<< Employing the generalized Lotka-Volterra equations with time delays and random interactions, (AA) characterize the resulting dynamical phases in terms of the statistical properties of community interactions. (Their) findings reveal that memory effects can generate persistent and synchronized oscillations in species abundances in sufficiently competitive communities. This provides an additional explanation for synchronization in large communities, complementing known mechanisms such as predator-prey cycles and environmental periodic variability. >>

<< Furthermore, (AA) show that when reciprocal interactions are negatively correlated, time delays alone can induce chaotic behavior. This suggests that ecological complexity is not a prerequisite for unpredictable population dynamics, as intrinsic memory effects are sufficient to generate long-term fluctuations in species abundances. >>

# gst: apropos of multiple delays, transitions to intermittent chaos in quorum sensing-inspired dynamics.

<< This study analyses the dynamical consequences of heterogeneous temporal delays within a quorum sensing-inspired (QS-inspired) system, specifically addressing the differential response kinetics of two subpopulations to signalling molecules. >>️

<< The analysis reveals the critical role of multiple, dissimilar delays in modulating system dynamics and inducing bifurcations. Numerical simulations, conducted in conjunction with analytical results, reveal the emergence of periodic self-sustained oscillations and intermittent chaotic behaviour. These observations emphasise the intricate relationship between temporal heterogeneity and the stability landscape of systems exhibiting QS-inspired dynamics. This interplay highlights the capacity for temporal variations to induce complex dynamical transitions within such systems. >>️

AA << findings show that the presence of multiple delays, particularly when characterised by significant disparities in magnitude, can dramatically alter the system’s stability features and promote the emergence of complex nonlinear oscillatory behaviour. >>️
