We study the dynamics of a bouncing coin whose motion is restricted to the two-dimensional plane. Such coin model is equivalent to the system of two equal masses connected by a rigid rod, making elastic collisions with a flat boundary. We first describe the coin system as a point billiard with a scattering boundary. Then we analytically verify that the billiard map acting on the two disjoint sets produces a Smale horseshoe structure. We also prove that any random sequence of coin collisions can be realized by choosing an appropriate initial condition.

A system of two masses connected with a weightless rod (called dumbbell in this paper) interacting with a flat boundary is considered. The sharp bound on the number of collisions with the boundary is found using billiard techniques. In case, the ratio of masses is large and the dumbbell rotates fast, an adiabatic invariant is obtained.
In this paper we study chaotic behavior of actions of a countable discrete group acting on a compact metric space by self-homeomorphisms. For actions of a countable discrete group G, we introduce local weak mixing and Li-Yorke chaos; and prove that local weak mixing implies Li-Yorke chaos if G is infinite, and positive topological entropy implies local weak mixing if G is an infinite countable discrete amenable group. Moreover, when considering a shift of finite type for actions of an infinite countable amenable group G, if the action has positive topological entropy then its homoclinic equivalence relation is non-trivial, and the converse holds true if additionally G is residually finite and the action contains a dense set of periodic points.
Previous studies have shown that rate-induced transitions can occur in pullback attractors of systems subject to parameter shifts between two asymptotically steady values of a system parameter. For cases where the attractors limit to equilibrium or periodic orbit in past and future limits of such an nonautonomous systems, these can occur as the parameter change passes through a critical rate. Such rate-induced transitions for attractors that limit to chaotic attractors in past or future limits has been less examined. In this paper, we identify a new phenomenon is associated with more complex attractors in the future limit: weak tracking, where a pullback attractor of the system limits to a proper subset of an attractor of the future limit system. We demonstrate weak tracking in a nonautonomous Rossler system, and argue there are infinitely many critical rates at each of which the pullback attracting solution of the system tracks an embedded unstable periodic orbit of the future chaotic attractor. We also state some necessary conditions that are needed for weak tracking.
It is shown that applying manifold learning techniques to Poincare sections of high-dimensional, chaotic dynamical systems can uncover their low-dimensional topological organization. Manifold learning provides a low-dimensional embedding and intrinsic coordinates for the parametrization of data on the Poincare section, facilitating the construction of return maps with well defined symbolic dynamics. The method is illustrated by numerical examples for the Rossler attractor and the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation. For the latter we present the reduction of the high-dimensional, continuous-time flow to dynamics on one- and two two-dimensional Poincare sections. We show that in the two-dimensional embedding case the attractor is organized by one-dimensional unstable manifolds of short periodic orbits. In that case, the dynamics can be approximated by a map on a tree which can in turn be reduced to a trimodal map of the unit interval. In order to test the limits of the one-dimensional map approximation we apply classical kneading theory in order to systematically detect all periodic orbits of the system up to any given topological length.
Chaos is ubiquitous in physical systems. The associated sensitivity to initial conditions is a significant obstacle in forecasting the weather and other geophysical fluid flows. Data assimilation is the process whereby the uncertainty in initial conditions is reduced by the astute combination of model predictions and real-time data. This chapter reviews recent findings from investigations on the impact of chaos on data assimilation methods: for the Kalman filter and smoother in linear systems, analytic results are derived; for their ensemble-bas
