Intermittency reinjection in the logistic map
Just below a Period-3 window, the logistic map exhibits intermittency. Then, the third iterate of this map has been widely used to explain the chaotic intermittency concept. Much attention has been paid to describing the behavior around the vanished fixed points, the tangent bifurcation, and the formation of the characteristic channel between the map and the diagonal for type-I intermittency. However, the reinjection mechanism has not been deeply analyzed. In this paper, we studied the reinjection processes for the three fixed points around which intermittency is generated. We calculated the reinjection probability density function, the probability density of the laminar lengths, and the characteristic relation. We found that the reinjection mechanisms have broader behavior than the usually used uniform reinjection. Furthermore, the reinjection processes depend on the fixed point.Fil: Elaskar, Sergio Amado.

Fluctuation-induced currents in suspended graphene nanoribbons: Adiabatic quantum pumping approach
Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are thin strips of graphene with unique properties due to their structure and nanometric dimensions. They stand out as basic components for the construction of different types of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS), including some very promising sensors and pumps. However, various phenomena, such as unintended mechanical vibrations, can induce undesired electrical currents in these devices. Here, we take a quantum mechanical approach to analyze how currents induced by fluctuations (either thermal or of some other kind) in suspended GNRs contribute to the electric current. In particular, we study the pumping current induced by the adiabatic variation of the Hamiltonian of the system when a transverse vibration (flexural mode) of a GNR suspended over a gate is excited. Our theoretical approach and results provide useful tools and rules of thumb to understand and control the charge current induced by fluctuations in GNR-based NEMS, which is important for their applications in nanoscale sensors, pumps, and energy harvesting devices.Fil: Ribetto, Federico Daniel.
