In other areas, most noticeably chaos theory, he is known for accommodating the formalism of chaos theory within general relativity. Along with colleagues, he also formalized the concept of doubly transient chaos in dissipative dynamical systems and discovered that network dynamics can exhibit

Together with Marc Timme, he wrote the review “Antagonistic
Phenomena in Network Dynamics”, which discusses a variety of seemly paradoxical or highly counterintuitive effects in collective network dynamics.
