Control of Hamiltonian chaos as a possible tool to control anomalous transport in fusion plasmas
G. Ciraolo, F. Briolle, C. Chandre +6
It is shown that a relevant control of Hamiltonian chaos is possible through suitable small perturbations whose form can be explicitly computed. In particular, it is possible to co…
A Theorem on the origin of Phase Transitions
Roberto Franzosi, Marco Pettini
For physical systems described by smooth, finite-range and confining microscopic interaction potentials V with continuously varying coordinates, we announce and outline the proof o…
Control of chaos in Hamiltonian systems
G. Ciraolo, C. Chandre, R. Lima +2
We present a technique to control chaos in Hamiltonian systems which are close to integrable. By adding a small and simple control term to the perturbation, the system becomes more…
Topology and Phase Transitions: Theorem on a necessary relation
Roberto Franzosi, Marco Pettini, Lionel Spinelli
An emended and improved version of the present paper has been archived in math-ph/0505057, and a preliminary account of its content has been published in Phys.Rev.Lett. 92, 60601,…
Control of chaotic transport in Hamiltonian systems
Guido Ciraolo, Cristel Chandre, Ricardo Lima +4
It is shown that a relevant control of Hamiltonian chaos is possible through suitable small perturbations whose form can be explicitly computed. In particular, it is possible to co…
Phase transitions and topology changes in configuration space
Lapo Casetti, Marco Pettini, E. G. D. Cohen
The relation between thermodynamic phase transitions in classical systems and topological changes in their configuration space is discussed for two physical models and contains the…
