  abstract     = {{<jats:p> We combine the techniques of almost invariant sets (using tree structured box elimination and graph partitioning algorithms) with invariant manifold and lobe dynamics techniques. The result is a new computational technique for computing key dynamical features, including almost invariant sets, resonance regions as well as transport rates and bottlenecks between regions in dynamical systems. This methodology can be applied to a variety of multibody problems, including those in molecular modeling, chemical reaction rates and dynamical astronomy. In this paper we focus on problems in dynamical astronomy to illustrate the power of the combination of these different numerical tools and their applicability. In particular, we compute transport rates between two resonance regions for the three-body system consisting of the Sun, Jupiter and a third body (such as an asteroid). These resonance regions are appropriate for certain comets and asteroids. </jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{<jats:p> In an array of coupled oscillators, synchronous chaos may occur in the sense that all the oscillators behave identically although the corresponding motion is chaotic. When a parameter is varied this fully symmetric dynamical state can lose its stability, and the main purpose of this paper is to investigate which type of dynamical behavior is expected to be observed once the loss of stability has occurred. The essential tool is a classification of Lyapunov exponents based on the symmetry of the underlying problem. This classification is crucial in the derivation of the analytical results but it also allows an efficient computation of the dominant Lyapunov exponent associated with each symmetry type. We show how these dominant exponents determine the stability of invariant sets possessing various instantaneous symmetries, and this leads to the idea of symmetry breaking bifurcations of chaotic attractors. Finally, the results and ideas are illustrated for several systems of coupled oscillators. </jats:p>}},

  abstract     = {{<jats:p> Spiral patterns have been observed experimentally, numerically, and theoretically in a variety of systems. It is often believed that these spiral wave patterns can occur only in systems of reaction–diffusion equations. We show, both theoretically (using Hopf bifurcation techniques) and numerically (using both direct simulation and continuation of rotating waves) that spiral wave patterns can appear in a single reaction–diffusion equation [ in u(x, t)] on a disk, if one assumes "spiral" boundary conditions (u<jats:sub>r</jats:sub> = mu<jats:sub>θ</jats:sub>). Spiral boundary conditions are motivated by assuming that a solution is infinitesimally an Archimedian spiral near the boundary. It follows from a bifurcation analysis that for this form of spirals there are no singularities in the spiral pattern (technically there is no spiral tip) and that at bifurcation there is a steep gradient between the "red" and "blue" arms of the spiral. </jats:p>}},
