In many systems, the electronic energy spectrum is a continuous or singular continuous multifractal set with a distribution of scaling exponents. Here, we show that for a quasiperiodic potential, the multifractal energy spectrum can have a minimal dispersion of the scaling exponents. This is made by tuning the ratio between self-energies in a tight-binding Hamiltonian defined in a quasiperiodic...

A word is quasiperiodic if it can be obtained by concatenations and overlaps of a smaller word, called a quasiperiod. Based on links between quasiperiods, right special factors and square factors, we introduce a method to determine the set of quasiperiods of a given right infinite word. Then we study the structure of the sets of quasiperiods of right infinite words and, using our method, we pro...

We analyze a minimal model of a population of identical oscillators with a nonlinear coupling—a generalization of the popular Kuramoto model. In addition to well-known for the Kuramoto model regimes of full synchrony, full asynchrony, and integrable neutral quasiperiodic states, ensembles of nonlinearly coupled oscillators demonstrate two novel nontrivial types of partially synchronized dynamic...

We consider the dynamics of the overdamped Josephson junction under the influence of an external quasiperiodic driving field. In dependence on parameter values either a quasiperiodic motion or a strange nochaotic attractor (SNA) can be observed. The latter corresponds to a resistive state in the current-voltage characteristics while for quasiperiodic motion a finite superconducting current exis...

We review the basic patterns of complex non-uniqueness in simple discrete-time population dynamics models. We begin by studying a population dynamics model of a single species with a two-stage, two-habitat life cycle. We then explore in greater detail two ecological models describing host–macroparasite and host–parasitoid interspecific interactions. In general, several types of attractors, e.g....
