Response solutions for strongly dissipative quasi-periodically forced systems with arbitrary nonlinearities and frequencies
No full textWe consider quasi-periodically systems in the presence of dissipation and study the existence of response solutions, i.e. quasi-periodic solutions with the same frequency vector as the forcing term. When the dissipation is large enough and a suitable function involving the forcing has a simple zero, response solutions are known to exist without assuming any non-resonance condition on the frequency vector. We analyse the case of non-simple zeroes and, in order to deal with the small divisors, we confine ourselves to two-dimensional frequency vectors, so as to use the properties of continued fractions. We show that, if the order of the zero is odd (if it is even, in general no response solution exists), a response solution still exists provided the inverse of the parameter measuring the dissipation belongs to a set given by the union of infinite intervals depending on the convergents of the ratio of the two components of the frequency vector. The intervals may be disjoint and as a consequence we obtain the existence of response solutions in a set with “holes”. If we want the set to be connected we have to require some non-resonance condition on the frequency: in fact, we need a condition weaker than the Bryuno condition usually considered in small divisors problems

No full textForced quasi-periodic oscillations in strongly dissipative systems of any finite dimension
No full textWe consider a class of singular ordinary differential equations describing analytic systems of arbitrary finite dimension, subject to a quasi-periodic forcing term and in the presence of dissipation. We study the existence of response solutions, i.e. quasi-periodic solutions with the same frequency vector as the forcing term, in the case of large dissipation. We assume the system to be conservative in the absence of dissipation, so that the forcing term is - up to the sign - the gradient of a potential energy, and both the mass and damping matrices to be symmetric and positive definite. Further, we assume a non-degeneracy condition on the forcing term, essentially that the time-average of the potential energy has a strict local minimum. On the contrary, no condition is assumed on the forcing frequency; in particular, we do not require any Diophantine condition. We prove that, under the assumptions above, a response solution always exists provided the dissipation is strong enough. This extends results previously available in the literature in the one-dimensional case

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
