In this work we present a brief derivation of the periodic orbit expansion for simple dynamical systems, and then we apply it to the study of a classical statistical mechanical model, the Lorentz gas, both at equilibrium and in a nonequilibrium steady state. The results are compared with those obtained through standard molecular dynamics simulations, and they are found to be in good agreement. The form of the average using the periodic orbit expansion suggests the definition of a new dynamical partition function, which we test numerically. An analytic formula is obtained for the Lyapunov numbers of periodic orbits for the nonequilibrium Lorentz gas. Using this formula and other numerical techniques we study the nonequilibrium Lorentz gas as a dynamical system and obtain an estimate of the upper bound on the external field for which the system remains ergodic.

We present the results of numerical integrations of Pluto and some fictitious Plutos in three different models (the circular and the elliptic restricted three body problem and the outer solar system). We determined the “extension” of the stable region in these models by means of the Lyapunov Characteristic Numbers and by an analysis of the orbital elements.

AbstractThe fractal dimension of an attracting torus Tk in × Tk is shown to be almost always equal to the Lyapunov dimension as predicted by a previous conjecture. The cases studied here can have several Lyapunov numbers greater than 1 and several less than 1
