The collision of a fixed point with a switching manifold (or border) in a piecewise-smooth map can create many different types of invariant sets. This paper explores two techniques that, combined, establish a chaotic attractor is created in a border-collision bifurcation in $mathbb{R}^d$ $(d ge 1)$. First, asymptotic stability of the fixed point at the bifurcation is characterised and shown to imply a local attractor is created. Second, a lower bound on the maximal Lyapunov exponent is obtained from the determinants of the one-sided Jacobian matrices associated with the fixed point. Special care is taken to accommodate points whose forward orbits intersect the switching manifold as such intersections can have a stabilising effect. The results are applied to the two-dimensional border-collision normal form focusing on parameter values for which the map is piecewise area-expanding.
Let $X$ be a set of points whose coordinates are known with limited accuracy; our aim is to give a characterization of the vanishing ideal $I(X)$ independent of the data uncertainty. We present a method to compute a polynomial basis $B$ of $I(X)$ whi
The Lyapunov exponent characterizes the asymptotic behavior of long matrix products. Recognizing scenarios where the Lyapunov exponent is strictly positive is a fundamental challenge that is relevant in many applications. In this work we establish a
In some maps the existence of an attractor with a positive Lyapunov exponent can be proved by constructing a trapping region in phase space and an invariant expanding cone in tangent space. If this approach fails it may be possible to adapt the strat
In this paper we consider the problem of computing all possible order ideals and also sets connected to 1, and the corresponding border bases, for the vanishing ideal of a given finite set of points. In this context two different approaches are discu
In modeling physical systems it is sometimes useful to construct border bases of 0-dimensional polynomial ideals which are contained in the ideal generated by a given set of polynomials. We define and construct such subideal border bases, provide som
