Dense Dark-Bright Soliton Arrays In A Two-Component Bose-Einstein Condensate, S. Mossman, G. C. Katsimiga, S. I. Mistakidis, A. Romero-Ros, T. M. Bersano, P. Schmelcher, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, P. Engels

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We present a combined experimental and theoretical study of regular dark-bright soliton arrays in a two-component atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. We demonstrate a microwave pulse-based winding technique which allows for a tunable number of solitary waves en route to observing their dynamics, quantified through Fourier analysis of the density. We characterize different winding density regimes by the observed dynamics including the decay and revival of the Fourier peaks, the emergence of dark-antidark solitons, and disordering of the soliton array. The experimental results are in good agreement with three-dimensional numerical computations of the underlying mean-field theory. These observations open a window into …


Discrete Breathers In A Mechanical Metamaterial, Henry Duran, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Anna Vainchtein Jan 2022

Discrete Breathers In A Mechanical Metamaterial, Henry Duran, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Anna Vainchtein

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We consider a previously experimentally realized discrete model that describes a mechanical metamaterial consisting of a chain of pairs of rigid units connected by flexible hinges. Upon analyzing the linear band structure of the model, we identify parameter regimes in which this system may possess discrete breather solutions with frequencies inside the gap between optical and acoustic dispersion bands. We compute numerically exact solutions of this type for several different parameter regimes and investigate their properties and stability. Our findings demonstrate that upon appropriate parameter tuning within experimentally tractable ranges, the system exhibits a plethora of discrete breathers, with multiple …

Discovering Governing Equations In Discrete Systems Using Pinns, Sheikh Saqlain, Wei Zhu, Efstathios G. Charalampidis, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

Sparse identification of nonlinear dynamical systems is a topic of continuously increasing significance in the dynamical systems community. Here we explore it at the level of lattice nonlinear dynamical systems of many degrees of freedom. We illustrate the ability of a suitable adaptation of Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) to solve the inverse problem of parameter identification in such discrete, high-dimensional systems inspired by physical applications. The methodology is illustrated in a diverse array of examples including real-field ones (ϕ4 and sine-Gordon), as well as complex-field (discrete nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equation) and going beyond Hamiltonian to dissipative cases (the discrete complex Ginzburg-Landau …


Dirac Solitons And Topological Edge States In The Β-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou Dimer Lattice, Rajesh Chaunsali, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Dimitri Frantzeskakis, Georgios Theocharis Jan 2022

Dirac Solitons And Topological Edge States In The Β-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou Dimer Lattice, Rajesh Chaunsali, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Dimitri Frantzeskakis, Georgios Theocharis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We consider a dimer lattice of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) type, where alternating linear couplings have a controllably small difference, and the cubic nonlinearity (β-FPUT) is the same for all interaction pairs. We use a weakly nonlinear formal reduction within the lattice bandgap to obtain a continuum, nonlinear Dirac-type system. We derive the Dirac soliton profiles and the model's conservation laws analytically. We then examine the cases of the semi-infinite and the finite domains and illustrate how the soliton solutions of the bulk problem can be ``glued'' to the boundaries for different types of boundary conditions. We thus explain the existence …


An Ising Machine Based On Networks Of Subharmonic Electrical Resonators, L. Q. English, A. V. Zampetaki, K. P. Kalinin, N. G. Berloff, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

An Ising Machine Based On Networks Of Subharmonic Electrical Resonators, L. Q. English, A. V. Zampetaki, K. P. Kalinin, N. G. Berloff, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We explore a case example of networks of classical electronic oscillators evolving towards the solution of complex optimization problems. We show that when driven into subharmonic response, a network of such nonlinear electrical resonators can minimize the Ising Hamiltonian on non-trivial graphs such as antiferromagnetically coupled rewired-M{ö}bius ladders. In this context, the spin-up and spin-down states of the Ising machine are represented by the oscillators' response at the even or odd driving cycles. Our experimental setting of driven nonlinear oscillators coupled via a programmable switch matrix leads to a unique energy minimizer when one such exists, and probes frustration where …


Revisiting Multi-Breathers In The Discrete Klein-Gordon Equation: A Spatial Dynamics Approach, Ross Parker, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Alejandro Aceves Jan 2022

Revisiting Multi-Breathers In The Discrete Klein-Gordon Equation: A Spatial Dynamics Approach, Ross Parker, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Alejandro Aceves

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We consider the existence and spectral stability of multi-breather structures in the discrete Klein-Gordon equation, both for soft and hard symmetric potentials. To obtain analytical results, we project the system onto a finite-dimensional Hilbert space consisting of the first M Fourier modes, for arbitrary M. On this approximate system, we then take a spatial dynamics approach and use Lin's method to construct multi-breathers from a sequence of well-separated copies of the primary, single-site breather. We then locate the eigenmodes in the Floquet spectrum associated with the interaction between the individual breathers of such multi-breather states by reducing the spectral …


Efficient Manipulation Of Bose-Einstein Condensates In A Double-Well Potential, J. Adriazola, R. H. Goodman, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

Efficient Manipulation Of Bose-Einstein Condensates In A Double-Well Potential, J. Adriazola, R. H. Goodman, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We pose the problem of transferring a Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) from one side of a double-well potential to the other as an optimal control problem for determining the time-dependent form of the potential. We derive a reduced dynamical system using a Galerkin truncation onto a finite set of eigenfunctions and find that including three modes suffices to effectively control the full dynamics, described by the Gross-Pitaevskii model of BEC. The functional form of the control is reduced to finite dimensions by using a Galerkin-type method called the chopped random basis (CRAB) method, which is then optimized by a genetic algorithm …


The Role Of Mobility In The Dynamics Of The Covid-19 Epidemic In Andalusia, Z. Rapti, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, E. Kontou, S. Liu, Y. Drossinos, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, G. A. Kevrekidis, M. Barmann, Q.-Y. Chen Jan 2022

The Role Of Mobility In The Dynamics Of The Covid-19 Epidemic In Andalusia, Z. Rapti, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, E. Kontou, S. Liu, Y. Drossinos, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, G. A. Kevrekidis, M. Barmann, Q.-Y. Chen

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

Metapopulation models have been a popular tool for the study of epidemic spread over a network of highly populated nodes (cities, provinces, countries) and have been extensively used in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In the present work, we revisit such a model, bearing a particular case example in mind, namely that of the region of Andalusia in Spain during the period of the summer-fall of 2020 (i.e., between the first and second pandemic waves). Our aim is to consider the possibility of incorporation of mobility across the province nodes focusing on mobile-phone time dependent data, but also …


Two-Component 3d Atomic Bose-Einstein Condensates Support Complex Stable Patterns, N. Boullé, I. Newell, P. E. Farrell, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

Two-Component 3d Atomic Bose-Einstein Condensates Support Complex Stable Patterns, N. Boullé, I. Newell, P. E. Farrell, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We report the computational discovery of complex, topologically charged, and spectrally stable states in three-dimensional multi-component nonlinear wave systems of nonlinear Schrödinger type. While our computations relate to two-component atomic Bose-Einstein condensates in parabolic traps, our methods can be broadly applied to high-dimensional, nonlinear systems of partial differential equations. The combination of the so-called deflation technique with a careful selection of initial guesses enables the computation of an unprecedented breadth of patterns, including ones combining vortex lines, rings, stars, and “vortex labyrinths”. Despite their complexity, they may be dynamically robust and amenable to experimental observation, as confirmed by Bogolyubov-de Gennes …


Characterization Of Elastic Topological States Using Dynamic Mode Decomposition, Shuaifeng Li, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Jinkyu Yang Jan 2022

Characterization Of Elastic Topological States Using Dynamic Mode Decomposition, Shuaifeng Li, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Jinkyu Yang

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

Elastic topological states have been receiving increased intention in numerous scientific and engineering fields due to their defect-immune nature, resulting in applications of vibration control and information processing. Here, we present the data-driven discovery of elastic topological states using dynamic mode decomposition (DMD). The DMD spectrum and DMD modes are retrieved from the propagation of the relevant states along the topological boundary, where their nature is learned by DMD. Applications such as classification and prediction can be achieved by the underlying characteristics from DMD. We demonstrate the classification between topological and traditional metamaterials using DMD modes. Moreover, the model enabled …


Dragging A Defect In A Droplet Bose-Einstein Condensate, Sheikh Saqlain, Thudiyangal Mithun, R. Carretero-González, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

Dragging A Defect In A Droplet Bose-Einstein Condensate, Sheikh Saqlain, Thudiyangal Mithun, R. Carretero-González, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

In the present work we consider models of quantum droplets in the presence of a defect in the form of a laser beam moving through the respective condensates including the Lee-Huang-Yang correction. Our analysis features separately an exploration of the existence, stability, bifurcations and dynamics in 1D, 2D and 3D settings. In the absence of an analytical solution of the problem, we provide an analysis of the speed of sound and observe how the states traveling with the defect may feature a saddle-center bifurcation as the speed or the strength of the defect is modified. Relevant bifurcation diagrams are constructed …

How Close Are Integrable And Non-Integrable Models: A Parametric Case Study Based On The Salerno Model, Thudiyangal Mithun, Aleksandra Maluckov, Ana Mančić, Avinash Khare, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

n the present work we revisit the Salerno model as a prototypical system that interpolates between a well-known integrable system (the Ablowitz-Ladik lattice) and an experimentally tractable non-integrable one (the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger model). The question we ask is: for "generic" initial data, how close are the integrable to the non-integrable models? Our more precise formulation of this question is: how well is the constancy of formerly conserved quantities preserved in the non-integrable case? Upon examining this, we find that even slight deviations from integrability can be sensitively felt by measuring these formerly conserved quantities in the case of the …


Breathers In Lattices With Alternating Strain-Hardening And Strain-Softening Interactions, Marisa M. Lee, Efstathios G. Charalampidis, Siyuan Xing, Christopher Chong, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

Breathers In Lattices With Alternating Strain-Hardening And Strain-Softening Interactions, Marisa M. Lee, Efstathios G. Charalampidis, Siyuan Xing, Christopher Chong, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

This workfocuses onthe study of time-periodic solutions, including breathers, in a nonlinear lattice consisting of elements whose contacts alternate between strain-hardening and strain-softening. The existence, stability, and bifurcation structure of such solutions, as well as the system dynamics in the presence of damping and driving are studied systematically. It is found that the linear resonant peaks in the system bend toward the frequency gap in the presence of nonlinearity. The time-periodic solutions that lie within the frequency gap compare well to Hamiltonian breathers if the damping and driving are small. In the Hamiltonian limit of the problem, we use a …


Kink-Antikink Interaction Forces And Bound States In A Φ4 Model With Quadratic And Quartic Dispersion, G. A. Tsolias, Robert J. Decker, A. Demirkaya, T. J. Alexander, Ross Parker, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

Kink-Antikink Interaction Forces And Bound States In A Φ4 Model With Quadratic And Quartic Dispersion, G. A. Tsolias, Robert J. Decker, A. Demirkaya, T. J. Alexander, Ross Parker, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

In the present work we explore the competition of quadratic and quartic dispersion in producing kink-like solitary waves in a model of the nonlinear Schrödinger type bearing cubic nonlinearity. We present the first 6 families of multikink solutions and explore their bifurcations as the strength of the quadratic dispersion is varied. We reveal a rich bifurcation structure for the system, connecting two-kink states with states involving 4-, as well as 6-kinks. The stability of all of these states is explored. For each family, we discuss a “lower branch” adhering to the energy landscape of the 2-kink states. We also, however, …


Control Of 164Dy Bose-Einstein Condensate Phases And Dynamics With Dipolar Anistropy, S. Halder, K. Mukherjee, S. I. Mistakidis, S. Das, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, P. K. Panigrahi, S. Majumder, H. R. Sadeghpour Jan 2022

Control Of 164Dy Bose-Einstein Condensate Phases And Dynamics With Dipolar Anistropy, S. Halder, K. Mukherjee, S. I. Mistakidis, S. Das, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, P. K. Panigrahi, S. Majumder, H. R. Sadeghpour

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We investigate the quench dynamics of quasi-one and two dimensional dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates (dBEC) of 164Dy atoms under the influence of a fast rotating magnetic field. The magnetic field thus controls both the magnitude and sign of the dipolar potential. We account for quantum fluctuations, critical to formation of exotic quantum droplet and supersolid phases in the extended Gross-Pitaevskii formalism, which includes the so-called Lee-Huang-Yang (LHY) correction. An analytical variational ansatz allows us to obtain the phase diagrams of the superfluid and droplet phases. The crossover from the superfluid to the supersolid phase and to single and droplet arrays …


Asymptotic Dynamics Of Higher-Order Lumps In The Davey-Stewartson Ii Equation, Lijuan Guo, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Jingsong He Jan 2022

Asymptotic Dynamics Of Higher-Order Lumps In The Davey-Stewartson Ii Equation, Lijuan Guo, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Jingsong He

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

A family of higher-order rational lumps on non-zero constant background of Davey–Stewartson (DS) II equation are investigated. These solutions have multiple peaks whose heights and trajectories are approximately given by asymptotical analysis. It is found that the heights are time-dependent and for large time they approach the same constant height value of the first-order fundamental lump. The resulting trajectories are considered and it is found that the scattering angle can assume arbitrary values in the interval of which is markedly distinct from the necessary orthogonal scattering for the higher-order lumps on zero background. Additionally, it is illustrated that the higher-order …


Solitary Wave Billiards, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Hongkun Zhang Jan 2022

Solitary Wave Billiards, Jesús Cuevas-Maraver, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, Hongkun Zhang

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

In the present work we introduce the concept of solitary wave billiards. I.e., instead of a point particle, we consider a solitary wave in an enclosed region and explore its collision with the boundaries and the resulting trajectories in cases which for particle billiards are known to be integrable and for cases that are known to be chaotic. A principal conclusion is that solitary wave billiards are generically found to be chaotic even in cases where the classical particle billiards are integrable. However, the degree of resulting chaoticity depends on the particle speed and on the properties of the potential. …

Schwarzschild-Finsler-Randers Spacetime: Dynamical Analysis, Geodesics And Deflection Angle, E. Kapsabelis, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis, P. C. Stavrinos, A. Triantafyllopoulos

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

In this work, we extend the study of Schwarzschild-Finsler-Randers (SFR) spacetime previously investigated by a subset of the present authors. We will examine the dynamical analysis of geodesics which provides the derivation of the energy and the angular momentum of a particle moving along a geodesic of SFR spacetime. This study allows us to compare our model with the corresponding of general relativity (GR). In addition, the effective potential of SFR model is examined and it is compared with the effective potential of GR. The phase portraits generated by these effective potentials are also compared. Finally, we deal with the …


Dispersive Shock Waves In Lattices: A Dimension Reduction Approach, Christopher Chong, Michael Herrman, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

Dispersive Shock Waves In Lattices: A Dimension Reduction Approach, Christopher Chong, Michael Herrman, Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

Dispersive shock waves (DSWs), which connect states of different amplitude via a modulated wave train, form generically in nonlinear dispersive media subjected to abrupt changes in state. The primary tool for the analytical study of DSWs is Whitham's modulation theory. While this framework has been successfully employed in many space-continuous settings to describe DSWs, the Whitham modulation equations are virtually intractable in most spatially discrete systems. In this article, we illustrate the relevance of the reduction of the DSW dynamics to a planar ODE in a broad class of lattice examples. Solutions of this low-dimensional ODE accurately describe the orbits …

We are rapidly approaching a future in which cancer patient digital twins will reach their potential to predict cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment in individual patients. This will be realized based on advances in high performance computing, computational modeling, and an expanding repertoire of observational data across multiple scales and modalities. In 2020, the US National Cancer Institute, and the US Department of Energy, through a trans-disciplinary research community at the intersection of advanced computing and cancer research, initiated team science collaborative projects to explore the development and implementation of predictive Cancer Patient Digital Twins. Several diverse pilot projects were …


Modelling Of Spatial Infection Spread Through Heterogeneous Population: From Lattice To Partial Differential Equation Models, Arvin Vaziry, T. Kolokolnikov, P. G. Kevrekidis Jan 2022

Modelling Of Spatial Infection Spread Through Heterogeneous Population: From Lattice To Partial Differential Equation Models, Arvin Vaziry, T. Kolokolnikov, P. G. Kevrekidis

Mathematics and Statistics Department Faculty Publication Series

We present a simple model for the spread of an infection that incorporates spatial variability in population density. Starting from first-principle considerations, we explore how a novel partial differential equation with state-dependent diffusion can be obtained. This model exhibits higher infection rates in the areas of higher population density—a feature that we argue to be consistent with epidemiological observations. The model also exhibits an infection wave, the speed of which varies with population density. In addition, we demonstrate the possibility that an infection can ‘jump’ (i.e. tunnel) across areas of low population density towards areas of high population density. We …
