Random walks serve as important tools for studying complex network structures, yet their dynamics in cases where transition probabilities are not static remain under explored and poorly understood. Here we study nonlinear random walks that occur when transition probabilities depend on the state of the system. We show that when these transition probabilities are non-monotonic, i.e., are not uniformly biased towards the most densely or sparsely populated nodes, but rather direct random walkers with more nuance, chaotic dynamics emerge. Using multiple transition probability functions and a range of networks with vastly different connectivity properties, we demonstrate that this phenomenon is generic. Thus, when such non-monotonic properties are key ingredients in nonlinear transport applications complicated and unpredictable behaviors may result.

A new type of deterministic chaos for a system described by iterative two-dimensional maps is reported. The series being generated by the original map has an average upward trend while the first difference, which is the series of changes from one period to the next, exhibits chaotic behavior through period doubling bifurcation. Furthermore, step-wise time series appears as the values of the bifurcation parameter are large, and the first difference of the time series exhibits intermittent chaos.
We study an influence of nonlinear dissipation and external perturbations onto transition scenarious to chaos in Lorenz-Haken system. It will be show that varying in external potential parameters values leads to parameters domain formation of chaos realization. In the modified Lorenz-Haken system transitions from regular to chaotic dynamics can be of Ruelle-Takens scenario, Feigenbaum scenario, or through intermittency.
Do nonlinear waves destroy Anderson localization? Computational and experimental studies yield subdiffusive nonequilibrium wave packet spreading. Chaotic dynamics and phase decoherence assumptions are used for explaining the data. We perform a quantitative analysis of the nonequilibrium chaos assumption, and compute the time dependence of main chaos indicators - Lyapunov exponents and deviation vector distributions. We find a slowing down of chaotic dynamics, which does not cross over into regular dynamics up to the largest observed time scales, still being fast enough to allow for a thermalization of the spreading wave packet. Strongly localized chaotic spots meander through the system as time evolves. Our findings confirm for the first time that nonequilibrium chaos and phase decoherence persist, fueling the prediction of a complete delocalization.
Let $X$ be the constrained random walk on ${mathbb Z}_+^d$ representing the queue lengths of a stable Jackson network and $x$ its initial position. Let $tau_n$ be the first time the sum of the components of $X$ equals $n$. $p_n doteq P_x(tau_n < tau_0)$ is a key performance measure for the queueing system represented by $X$, stability implies $p_nrightarrow 0$ exponentially. Currently the only analytic method available to approximate $p_n$ is large deviations analysis, which gives the exponential decay rate of $p_n$. Finer results are available via rare event simulation. The present article develops a new method to approximate $p_n$ and related expectations. The method has two steps: 1) with an affine transformation, move the origin onto the exit boundary of $tau_n$, take limits to remove some of the constraints on the dynamics, this yields a limit unstable constrained walk $Y$ 2) Construct a basis of harmonic functions of $Y$ and use them to apply the classical superposition principle of linear analysis. The basis functions are linear combinations of $log$-linear functions and come from solutions of harmonic systems, which are graphs whose vertices represent points on the characteristic surface of $Y$, the edges between the vertices represent conjugacy relations between the points, the loops represent membership in the boundary characteristic surfaces. Using our method we derive explicit, simple and almost exact formulas for $P_x(tau_n < tau_0)$ for $d$-tandem queues, similar to the product form formulas for the stationary distribution of $X$. The same method allows us to approximate the Balayage operator mapping $f$ to $x rightarrow {mathbb E}_x left[ f(X_{tau_n}) 1_{{tau_n < tau_0}} right]$ for a range of stable constrained random walks in $2$ dimensions. We indicate how the ideas of the paper relate to more general processes and exit boundaries.
We analyze the Eckhaus instability of plane waves in the one-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGLE) and describe the nonlinear effects arising in the Eckhaus unstable regime. Modulated amplitude waves (MAWs) are quasi-periodic solutions of the CGLE that emerge near the Eckhaus instability of plane waves and cease to exist due to saddle-node bifurcations (SN). These MAWs can be characterized by their average phase gradient $ u$ and by the spatial period P of the periodic amplitude modulation. A numerical bifurcation analysis reveals the existence and stability properties of MAWs with arbitrary $ u$ and P. MAWs are found to be stable for large enough $ u$ and intermediate values of P. For different parameter values they are unstable to splitting and attractive interaction between subsequent extrema of the amplitude. Defects form from perturbed plane waves for parameter values above the SN of the corresponding MAWs. The break-down of phase chaos with average phase gradient $ u$ > 0 (``wound-up phase chaos) is thus related to these SNs. A lower bound for the break-down of wound-up phase chaos is given by the necessary presence of SNs and an upper bound by the absence of the splitting instability of MAWs.
