Some dynamical properties for a family of two dimensional mappings controlled by three parameters are considered in this paper. For null dissipation and depending on the other control parameters, diffusion in phase space ...

We study Landau-Zener-Stückelberg (LZS) interferometry in multilevel systems coupled to an Ohmic quantum bath. We consider the case of superconducting flux qubits driven by a dc+ac magnetic fields, but our results can apply ...

The problem of a classical particle confined to bounce between two rigid walls, where one of them is fixed and the other one moves periodically on time is considered. The collisions with the moving wall can be inelastic, ...

We study a type of one-dimensional dynamical systems on the corresponding two-dimensional phase space. By using arguments related to the existence of integrating factors for Pfaff equations, we show that some one-dimensional ...

In this paper, it is proposed a quantization procedure for the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator with time-dependent frequency, time-dependent driven force, and time-dependent dissipative term. The method is based on the ...

The manipulation and control of vortex states in superconducting systems are of great interest in view of possible applications, for which mesoscopic materials are good candidates. In this work, we studied the annihilation ...

Stratocumulus-type clouds constitute a stable system over the Southeast Pacific Ocean. Their phenomenology is well known particularly over the ocean, but a quantitative analysis of their diurnal cycle over the Pacific ...
