Abstract
To set up the remainder of this article let us pose three problems. They incorporate various issues arising from basic analysis to simulation to applied modelling. Their seemingly ambiguous dynamics expose remarkably well our current state of knowledge concerning the robustness of nonsmooth models. The problems are: a classic example of ambiguity from seminal texts; a two-gene regulatory system with seemingly ambiguous activation of genes; and an investment game where players’ seemingly steady behaviour destabilizes a company’s trading.
