The dynamical properties of finite dynamical systems (FDSs) have been investigated in the context of coding theoretic problems, such as network coding, and in the context of hat games, such as the guessing game and Winkler's hat game. The instability of an FDS is the minimum Hamming distance between a state and its image under the FDS, while the stability is the minimum of the reciprocal of the Hamming distance; they are both directly related to Winkler's hat game. In this paper, we study the value of the (in)stability of FDSs with prescribed interaction graphs. The first main contribution of this paper is the study of the maximum stability for interaction graphs with a loop on each vertex. We determine the maximum (in)stability for large enough alphabets and also prove some lower bounds for the Boolean alphabet. We also compare the maximum stability for arbitrary functions compared to monotone functions only. The second main contribution of the paper is the study of the average (in)stability of FDSs with a given interaction graph. We show that the average stability tends to zero with high alphabets, and we then investigate the average instability. In that study, we give bounds on the number of FDSs with positive instability (i.e fixed point free functions). We then conjecture that all non-acyclic graphs will have an average instability which does not tend to zero when the alphabet is large. We prove this conjecture for some classes of graphs, including cycles.

The aim of this paper is to highlight current developments and new trends in the stability theory. Due to the outstanding role played in the study of stable, instable, and, respectively, central manifolds, the properties of exponential dichotomy and trichotomy for evolution equations represent two domains of the stability theory with an impressive development. Hence, we intend to construct a framework for an asymptotic approach of these properties for discrete dynamical systems using the associated skew-evolution semiflows. To this aim, we give definitions and characterizations for the properties of exponential stability and instability, and we extend these techniques to obtain a unified study of the properties of exponential dichotomy and trichotomy. The results are underlined by several examples.

In this paper the stability of the steady motions of dynamical systems with ignorable coordinates is considered. In addition to the original “free” systems “restrained” systems are defined in such a way that the ignorable velocities remain constant for all motions. The relation between the stability behavior of these two types of systems is examined in detail and several stability and instability theorems are given for damped and undamped systems. An illustrative example deals with the steady motions of a heavy gyrostat.

Since 2010 Middle East have many events or what they call "Arab spring events" which it result of overthrow governments and the rise of new political groups, all of this elements was resulting of many international and regional activities and making new regional and international axles, as well as the intersections of the different regional interests, therefore this research will try to study the stability and instability in the region as an independent variable not according to the neorealism or neoliberalism theories, but according to the constructivism theory which it base their assumptions on:  "In the international relations the non-physical structures of international interactions are determined by the identities of the players, which in turn determine the interests that determine the behavior of international players." So the research questions are: 1-What is the identity policy and haw affect in international relations? 2-How the social construct affect in international relations? 3-How the elite's identities for the main actors in the Middle East affect in the regional axles?

We study the stability of positive radially symmetric solitary waves for a three dimensional generalisation of the Korteweg de Vries equation, which describes nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in a magnetised plasma, and for a generalisation in dimension two of the Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation.

ABSTRACT Complex gene regulatory circuits exhibit emergent properties that are difficult to predict from the behavior of the components. One such property is the stability of regulatory states. Here we analyze the stability of the lysogenic state of phage λ. In this state, the virus maintains a stable association with the host, and the lytic functions of the virus are repressed by the viral CI repressor. This state readily switches to the lytic pathway when the host SOS system is induced. A low level of SOS-dependent switching occurs without an overt stimulus. We found that the intrinsic rate of switching to the lytic pathway, measured in a host lacking the SOS response, was almost undetectably low, probably less than 10−8/generation. We surmise that this low rate has not been selected directly during evolution but results from optimizing the rate of switching in a wild-type host over the natural range of SOS-inducing conditions. We also analyzed a mutant, λprm240, in which the promoter controlling CI expression was weakened, rendering lysogens unstable. Strikingly, the intrinsic stability of λprm240 lysogens depended markedly on the growth conditions; lysogens grown in minimal medium were nearly stable but switched at high rates when grown in rich medium. These effects on stability likely reflect corresponding effects on the strength of the prm240 promoter, measured in an uncoupled assay system. Several derivatives of λprm240 with altered stabilities were characterized. This mutant and its derivatives afford a model system for further analysis of stability.

The bifurcation problem is one of the most important subjects in dynamical systems. Motivated by M. Li et al. who used compound matrices to judge the stability of matrices and the existence of Hopf bifurcations in continuous dynamical systems, we obtained some effective methods to judge the Schur stability of matrices on the base of the spectral property of compound matrices, which can be used to judge the asymptotical stability and the existence of Hopf bifurcations of discrete dynamical systems.

With high-speed welding inverter and precisely controlling the welding current with arc-bridge state, advanced pulse current waveforms can be produced to optimize the transfer characteristics of short circuiting transfer welding. In this paper, the images of droplet/wire, and the transient data of welding current and arc voltage were simultaneously recorded to study the influence of peak arcing current, background arcing current and tail-out time on the stability of short circuiting transfer process. It was found that maximum short circuiting transfer stability is reached under specific welding conditions. Any deviation from these conditions will cause abnormal rises in arc voltage indicating instantaneous arc extinguishing and greater spatter. Optimal welding conditions were obtained to achieve the maximum stability of short circuiting metal transfer process.
