Asymmetry in repeated isotropic rotations
@article{Schrder2019AsymmetryIR, title={Asymmetry in repeated isotropic rotations}, author={Malte Schr{\"o}der and Marc Timme}, journal={Physical Review Research}, year={2019} }
Random operators constitute fundamental building blocks of models of complex systems yet are far from fully understood. Here, we explain an asymmetry emerging upon repeating identical isotropic (uniformly random) operations. Specifically, in two dimensions, repeating an isotropic rotation twice maps a given point on the two-dimensional unit sphere (the unit circle) uniformly at random to any point on the unit sphere, reflecting a statistical symmetry as expected. In contrast, in three and…

It is shown that the mean number of equilibria undergoes a sharp transition from one equilibrium to a very large number scaling exponentially with the dimension on the system, suggesting a deep and underexplored link between topological and dynamical complexity.

A random, but highly structured, constellation that is completely specified by log/sub 2/ L independent isotropically distributed unitary matrices is established, which establishes the limitations of an earlier construction through a subsidiary result that is interesting in its own right.
