This paper represents the author’s view on the impact of the book Nonlinear Oscillations, Dynamical Systems and Bifurcations of Vector Fields by John Guckenheimer and Philip Holmes, first published in 1983 (Springer-Verlag, Berlin). In particular, the questions addressed are: if one were to write a similar book for the 21st century, which topics should be contained and what form should the book take in order to have a similar impact on the modern generation of young researchers in applied dynamical systems?

Geometry of orbit is a subject of many investigations because it has important role in many branches of mathematics such as dynamical systems, control theory. In this paper it is studied geometry of orbits of conformal vector fields. It is shown that orbits of conformal vector fields are integral submanifolds of completely integrable distributions. Also for Euclidean space it is proven that if all orbits have the same dimension they are closed subsets.

AbstractA new shorter proof of the existence of index pairs for discrete dynamical systems is given. Moreover, the index pairs defined in that proof are stable with respect to small perturbations of the generating map. The existence of stable index pairs was previously known in the case of diffeomorphisms and flows generated by smooth vector fields but it was an open question in the general discrete case.

Abstract. We consider issues associated with the Lagrangian characterisation of flow structures arising in aperiodically time-dependent vector fields that are only known on a finite time interval. A major motivation for the consideration of this problem arises from the desire to study transport and mixing problems in geophysical flows where the flow is obtained from a numerical solution, on a finite space-time grid, of an appropriate partial differential equation model for the velocity field. Of particular interest is the characterisation, location, and evolution of transport barriers in the flow, i.e. material curves and surfaces. We argue that a general theory of Lagrangian transport has to account for the effects of transient flow phenomena which are not captured by the infinite-time notions of hyperbolicity even for flows defined for all time. Notions of finite-time hyperbolic trajectories, their finite time stable and unstable manifolds, as well as finite-time Lyapunov exponent (FTLE) fields and associated Lagrangian coherent structures have been the main tools for characterising transport barriers in the time-aperiodic situation. In this paper we consider a variety of examples, some with explicit solutions, that illustrate in a concrete manner the issues and phenomena that arise in the setting of finite-time dynamical systems. Of particular significance for geophysical applications is the notion of flow transition which occurs when finite-time hyperbolicity is lost or gained. The phenomena discovered and analysed in our examples point the way to a variety of directions for rigorous mathematical research in this rapidly developing and important area of dynamical systems theory.

In this paper, we investigate phase flows over ℂn and ℝn generated by vector fields V = ∑ Pi∂i where Pi are finite degree polynomials. With the convenient diagrammatic technique, we get expressions for evolution operators ev {V|t} : x(0) ↦ x(t) through the series in powers of x(0) and t, represented as sum over all trees of a particular type. Estimates are made for the radius of convergence in some particular cases. The phase flows behavior in the neighborhood of vector field fixed points are examined. Resonance cases are considered separately.

By using the bifurcation theory of planar dynamical systems and the method of detection functions, the bifurcations of limit cycles in a Z2-equivariant planar perturbed Hamiltonian polynomial vector fields of degree 7 are studied. An example of a special Z2-equivariant vector field having 50 limit cycles with a configuration of compound eyes are given.

Dynamical systems with time evolution determined by two alternating vector fields are investigated both analytically and numerically. When the two vector fields are related by an involutory diffeomorphism G then the fixed points of G (either isolated or non-isolated) are shown to give rise to branches of periodic solutions of the resulting non-autonomous system. The method of averaging is used for small switching periods. Detailed numerical study of both conservative (“blinking vortex”) and dissipative (“blinking nodes”, “blinking cycles” and “blinking Lorenz”) systems shows that the technique of blinking can be used to initiating and controlling of chaos.
