Analysing data covering the two periods of 1st January 2020 to 31st December 2022 (Russia–Ukraine), and 1st September 2022 to 29th February 2024 (Israel–Hamas), our findings reveal that before both wars officially began, the cryptocurrency network exhibited high interconnectedness, possibly due to investors anticipating conflict and shifting investments into cryptocurrencies. After the conflicts started, the network became significantly disconnected, with the Russia–Ukraine war showing a “small world” effect, where larger cryptocurrencies remained interconnected, while smaller cryptocurrencies became disconnected. In contrast, during the Israel–Hamas conflict, larger cryptocurrencies became more disconnected, driving overall network disconnectivity. Further analysis using the TVP-SV-VAR model showed that macroeconomic variables such as geopolitical risk, the U.S. Dollar Index, oil volatility and gold returns, as well as the Google Trend Index had a significant impact on the network’s structure, with varying effects across conflicts. Geopolitical risk exerted a stronger positive influence on centrality measures during the Israel–Hamas conflict, the Dollar index had a sharp negative effect on centrality following the Russia–Ukraine war, and oil volatility consistently enhanced network centrality and density in both conflicts. Gold returns shifted from having a negative to a positive effect on network connectivity, especially boosting intermediary roles during the Israel Hamas conflict, and the Google Trend Index consistently increased network centrality, highlighting the impact of rising market attention and sentiment. These results are crucial for understanding how military conflicts and economic factors impact cryptocurrency networks, providing valuable insights for academics, investors, policymakers, and legal authorities on market efficiency, risk management, and the potential use of blockchain-based assets in evading sanctions and facilitating cybercrime.

The analysis of equilibrium points and stability elucidates the mechanism behind the emergence of multi-structure chaotic attractors. The dynamical characteristics are investigated through the Lyapunov exponent spectrum, bifurcation diagrams, time series, and basin of attraction. Based on the complex dynamics of the memristive HNN, we design a color image encryption scheme combining oblique diffusion and cross-channel Hilbert scanning. Oblique diffusion effectively achieves global propagation of pixel-level perturbations, while cross-channel Hilbert scanning breaks the pixel correlation within individual channels while enhancing inter-channel dependencies.

In a second-order continuum model of traffic flow, driver’s anticipation to traffic ahead is expressed in terms of speed and density gradient, and stability conditions are analysed based on the eigenvalues from the system of equations in both the formulations. Eigenvalues, which are characteristics speeds of traffic flow, are checked against the Banach contraction principle and the Hyers–Ulam Stability concept to check model’s oscillatory nature and to understand how well a perturbed system solution remains close to that of an unperturbed system. Anticipation terms in both formulations are overviewed to interpret stability in possible practical scenarios in traffic. Linear stability conditions are checked case by case defined based on interactions among vehicle classes. Non-linear stability conditions for the formulations are derived through wavefront expansion techniques. Further, results from numerical simulations on a hypothetical road section in various congestion scenarios show that the vehicle speeds are non-negative always in both the formulations, and characteristics speeds are real, indicating hyperbolicity of the model’s equation systems. Anisotropic behaviour of traffic is well captured in speed gradient formulation; however, characteristics speeds higher than the vehicle speeds are frequently observed in density gradient formulation.

Here, with a distinct tool termed the “group-theoretical characteristic function (GCF)”, we investigate analytically how a harmonic oscillator immersed in a thermal environment would relax to its equilibrium state. We assume that the oscillator is at a pure state initially and its evolution is governed by a well-known quantum-optical master equation. Taking advantage of the GCF, the master equation can be transformed into a first-order linear partial differential equation, allowing us to write down its solution explicitly. Based on the solution, it is found that, in clear contrast with the monotonic relaxation process of its classical counterpart, the quantum oscillator may demonstrate some intriguing non-monotonic relaxation characteristics. In particular, when the initial state is a Gaussian state (i.e., a squeezed coherent state), there is a critical value of the environmental temperature below which the entropy will first increase to reach its maximum value, then turn down and converge to its equilibrium value from above. Conversely, when the temperature exceeds the critical value, the entropy converges monotonically to its equilibrium value from below. In contrast, for an initial Fock state, there are two critical temperatures instead and, in between, a new additional phase emerges, where the time curve of entropy features two extreme points. Namely, the entropy will increase to reach its maximum first, then turn down to reach its minimum, from where it begins to increase and converges to the equilibrium value eventually.
