Chaos in the Hamiltonian mean-field model
Chaos in the Hamiltonian mean-field model
We study the dynamical properties of the canonical ordered phase of the Hamiltonian mean-field (HMF) model, in which $N$ particles, globally-coupled via pairwise attractive interactions, form a rotating cluster. Using a combination of numerical and analytical arguments, we first show that the largest Lyapunov exponent remains strictly positive in the …
