A two-dimensional model of carbon monoxide (CO) catalytic oxidation on a platinum (Pt) surface for the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism is investigated. The adsorbate-driven (1×1)-(1×2) structural phase transition of Pt(110) and the formation of new crystal planes on the catalytic surface (faceting) as well as the effect of the substrate temperature are taken into account. It is shown that the stability region for CO oxidation reaction changes when two dimensions are taken into account. Similarly to the one-dimensional case, the reaction of CO oxidation on Pt-catalyst surface is periodic in the stability region. Mixed-mode oscillations (MMO) for CO and oxygen (O) surface coverages as well as the fraction of the surface in the non-reconstructed (1×1)-state were found. Such behavior cannot be predicted by one-dimensional models when the equation for the change of degree of faceting is not taken into account.

We investigated the stability properties of breather soliton trains in a three-dimensional Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) with Feshbach-resonance management of the scattering length. This is done so as to generate both attractive and repulsive interaction. The condensate is confined only by a one-dimensional optical lattice and we consider strong, moderate and weak confinement. By strong confinement we mean a situation in which a quasi two-dimensional soliton is created. Moderate confinement admits a fully three-dimensional soliton. Weak confinement allows individual solitons to interact. Stability properties are investigated by several theoretical methods such as a variational analysis, treatment of motion in effective potential wells, and collapse dynamics. Armed with all the information forthcoming from these methods, we then undertake a numerical calculation. Our theoretical predictions are fully confirmed, perhaps to a higher degree than expected. We compare regions of stability in parameter space obtained from a fully three-dimensional analysis with those from a quasi two-dimensional treatment, when the dynamics in one direction are frozen. We find that in the three-dimensional case the stability region splits into two parts. However, as we tighten the confinement, one of the islands of stability moves toward higher frequencies and the lower frequency region becomes more and more like that for the quasi two-dimensional case. We demonstrate these solutions in direct numerical simulations and, importantly, suggest a way of creating robust three-dimensional solitons in experiments in a BEC in a one-dimensional lattice.

Formation of gas hydrates under shock wave impact on bubble media (two-dimensional case) The dynamics of plane one-dimensional shock waves applied to the available experimental data for the water–freon media is studied on the base of the theoretical model of the bubble liquid improved with taking into account possible hydrate formation. The scheme of accounting of the bubble crushing in a shock wave that is one of the main factors in the hydrate formation intensification with increasing shock wave amplitude is proposed.

This chapter develops a Euclidean, two-dimensional, regions-based theory. As with the semi-Aristotelian account in Chapter 2, the goal here is to recover the now orthodox Dedekind–Cantor continuum on a point-free basis. The chapter derives the Archimedean property for a class of readily postulated orientations of certain special regions, what are called “generalized quadrilaterals” (intended as parallelograms), by which the entire space is covered. Then the chapter generalizes this to arbitrary orientations, and then establishes an isomorphism between the space and the usual point-based one. As in the one-dimensional case, this is done on the basis of axioms which contain no explicit “extremal clause”, and we have no axiom of induction other than ordinary numerical (mathematical) induction.

Ising [1] proposed the problem which now bears his name and solved it for the one-dimensional case only, leaving the higher dimensional cases as unsolved problems. The first solution to the two dimensional Ising problem was obtained by Onsager [6]. Onsager's method was subsequently explained more clearly by Kaufman [3]. More recently, Kac and Ward [2] discovered a simpler procedure involving determinants which is not logically complete.

The existence of chaos in the Rulkov neuron model is proved based on Marotto’s theorem. Firstly, the stability conditions of the model are briefly renewed through analyzing the eigenvalues of the model, which are very important preconditions for the existence of a snap-back repeller. Secondly, the Rulkov neuron model is decomposed to a one-dimensional fast subsystem and a one-dimensional slow subsystem by the fast–slow dynamics technique, in which the fast subsystem has sensitive dependence on the initial conditions and its snap-back repeller and chaos can be verified by numerical methods, such as waveforms, Lyapunov exponents, and bifurcation diagrams. Thirdly, for the two-dimensional Rulkov neuron model, it is proved that there exists a snap-back repeller under two iterations by illustrating the existence of an intersection of three surfaces, which pave a new way to identify the existence of a snap-back repeller.

Using simulated annealing, we examine a bipartitioning of small worlds obtained by adding a fraction of randomly chosen links to a one-dimensional chain or a square lattice. Models defined on small worlds typically exhibit a mean-field behavior, regardless of the underlying lattice. Our work demonstrates that the bipartitioning of small worlds does depend on the underlying lattice. Simulations show that for one-dimensional small worlds, optimal partitions are finite size clusters for any fraction of additional links. In the two-dimensional case, we observe two regimes: when the fraction of additional links is sufficiently small, the optimal partitions have a stripe-like shape, which is lost for a larger number of additional links as optimal partitions become disordered. Some arguments, which interpret additional links as thermal excitations and refer to the thermodynamics of Ising models, suggest a qualitative explanation of such a behavior. The histogram of overlaps suggests that a replica symmetry is broken in a one-dimensional small world. In the two-dimensional case, the replica symmetry seems to hold, but with some additional degeneracy of stripe-like partitions.
