Order in Extremal Trajectories

Given a chaotic dynamical system and a time interval in which some quantity takes an unusually large average value, what can we say of the trajectory that yields this deviation? As an example, we study the trajectories of the archetypical chaotic system, the baker’s map. We show that, out of all irregular trajectories, a large-deviation requirement selects (isolated) orbits that are periodic or quasiperiodic. We discuss what the relevance of this calculation may be for dynamical systems and for glasses.

Controlling Spatiotemporal Chaos in Coupled Map Lattices to Periodic Orbits

Two methods are presented for controlling spatiotemporal chaotic motion in coupled map lattices to a kind of periodic orbit where the dynamicM variables of all lattice sites are equM and act periodically as time evolves. Stability analysis of the periodic orbits is presented. We prove that especially the second controlling method can stabilize all the periodic orbits we concern. Basin of attraction and noise problem are discussed.

GLOBAL CHAOS CONTROL OF NON-AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS

This study describes a global approach of controlling chaos to reduce tedious waiting time caused by using conventional local controllers. With Euler's method, a non-autonomous system is approximated by a non-linear difference system and then an approximate global Poincaré map function is derived from the difference system by iterating one or more periods of a periodic excitation. Based on the map function, unstable periodic orbits embedded in a chaotic motion can be detected and a global controller for a targeted unstable periodic orbit is designed. The global controller makes all the unstable periodic orbits vanish except a targeted periodic orbit. Furthermore, a Lyapunov's direct method is applied to confirm that the global controller can asymptotically stabilize the unique periodic orbit. For practical applications, system models are usually unknown. To obtain a mathematical model, non-linear system identification based on the harmonic balance principle is applied to an unknown chaotic system of a noisy environment. Simulation results demonstrate that the global controller successfully regularizes a chaotic motion even if the chaotic trajectory is far from the targeted periodic orbit.     

Optical implementation of Baker’s map using parallel feedback system

As an application of optical parallel computing, optical implementation of the baker’s map is studied. Usingoptically addressed spatial light modulators, an optical feedback system was constructed. We confirmed that a fractal set can be generated optically by iterative baker’s map on an experimental system.     

Analytical study of chaos and applications

We summarize various cases where chaotic orbits can be described analytically. First we consider the case of a magnetic bottle where we have non-resonant and resonant ordered and chaotic orbits. In the sequence we consider the hyperbolic Hénon map, where chaos appears mainly around the origin, which is an unstable periodic orbit. In this case the chaotic orbits around the origin are represented by analytic series (Moser series). We find the domain of convergence of these Moser series and of similar series around other unstable periodic orbits. The asymptotic manifolds from the various unstable periodic orbits intersect at homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits that are given analytically. Then we consider some Hamiltonian systems and we find their homoclinic orbits by using a new method of analytic prolongation. An application of astronomical interest is the domain of convergence of the analytical series that determine the spiral structure of barred-spiral galaxies.     

Quantum effects of periodic orbits for the kicked top

We analyze traces of powers of the time evolution operator of a periodically kicked top. Semiclassically, such traces are related to periodic orbits of the classical map. We derive the semiclassical traces in a coherent state basis and show how the periodic orbits can be recovered via a Fourier transform. A breakdown of the stationary phase approximation is detected. The quasi energy spectrum remains elusive due to lack of knowledge of sufficiently many periodic orbits. Divergencies of periodic orbit formulas are avoided by appealing to the finiteness of the quantum mechanical Hilbert space. The traces also enter the coefficients of the characteristic polynominal of the Floquet operator. Statistical properties of these coefficients give rise to a new criterion for the distinction of chaos and regular motion.     

Stability of minimal periodic orbits

Symplectic twist maps are obtained from a Lagrangian variational principle. It is well known that nondegenerate minima of the action correspond to hyperbolic orbits of the map when the twist is negative definite and the map is two-dimensional. We show that for more than two dimensions, periodic orbits with minimal action in symplectic twist maps with negative definite twist are not necessarily hyperbolic. In the proof we show that in the neighborhood of a minimal periodic orbit of period n, the nth iterate of the map is again a twist map. This is true even though in general the composition of twist maps is not a twist map.     

Reduction of the semisimple 1:1 resonance

The method of “averaging” is often used in Hamiltonian systems of two degrees of freedom to find periodic orbits. Such periodic orbits can be reconstructed from the critical points of an associated “reduced” Hamiltonian on a “reduced space”. This paper details the construction of the reduced space and the reduced Hamiltonian for the semisimple 1:1 resonance case. The reduced space will be a 2-sphere in R³, and the reduced differential equations will be Euler's equations restricted to this sphere. The orbit projection from the energy surface in phase space to this sphere will be the Hopf map. The results of the paper are related to problems in physics on “degeneracies” due to symmetries of classical two-dimensional harmonic oscillators and their quantum analogues for the hydrogen atom.     

Invariant polygons in systems with grazing-sliding

The paper investigates generic three-dimensional nonsmooth systems with a periodic orbit near grazing-sliding. We assume that the periodic orbit is unstable with complex multipliers so that two dominant frequencies are present in the system. Because grazing-sliding induces a dimension loss and the instability drives every trajectory into sliding, the system has an attractor that consists of forward sliding orbits. We analyze this attractor in a suitably chosen Poincare section using a three-parameter generalized map that can be viewed as a normal form. We show that in this normal form the attractor must be contained in a finite number of lines that intersect in the vertices of a polygon. However the attractor is typically larger than the associated polygon. We classify the number of lines involved in forming the attractor as a function of the parameters. Furthermore, for fixed values of parameters we investigate the one-dimensional dynamics on the attractor.     

Application of the diffraction trace formula to the three-disk scattering system

The diffraction trace formula derived previously and the spectral determinant are tested on the open three-disk scattering system. The system contains a generic and exponentially growing number of diffraction periodic orbits. In spite of this it is shown that even the scattering resonances with large imaginary part can be reproduced semiclassically. The nontrivial interplay of the diffraction periodic orbits with the usual geometrical orbits produces the fine structure of the complicated spectrum of scattering resonances, which are beyond the resolution of the conventional periodic orbit theory.     

Statistics of chaotic tunneling

The distribution of tunneling rates in the presence of classical chaos is derived. We use classical information about tunneling trajectories plus random matrix theory arguments about wave function overlaps. The distribution depends on the stability of a specific tunneling orbit and is not universal, though it does reduce to the universal Porter-Thomas form when the orbit is very unstable. For some situations there may be systematic deviations due to scarring of real periodic orbits. The theory is tested in a model problem and possible experimental realizations are discussed.

Perturbation theory for periodic orbits in a class of infinite dimensional Hamiltonian systems

We consider a class of Hamiltonian systems describing an infinite array of coupled anharmonic oscillators, and we study the bifurcation of periodic orbits off the equilibrium point. The family of orbits we construct can be parametrized by their periods which belong to Cantor sets of large measure containing certain periods of the linearized problem as accumulation points. The infinitely many holes forming a dense set on which the existence of a periodic orbit cannot be proven originate from a dense set of resonances that are present in the system. We also have a result concerning the existence of solutions of arbitrarily large amplitude.Address after September 1990     

On the stability of delayed feedback controllers for discrete time systems

We consider the stability of delayed feedback control (DFC) scheme for multi-dimensional discrete time systems. We first construct a map whose fixed points correspond to the periodic orbits of the uncontrolled system. Then the stability of the DFC is analyzed as the stability of the corresponding equilibrium point of the constructed map. For each periodic orbit, we construct a characteristic polynomial whose Schur stability corresponds to the stability of DFC scheme.     

Statistics of self-crossings and avoided crossings of periodic orbits in the Hadamard-Gutzwiller model

Employing symbolic dynamics for geodesic motion on the tesselated pseudosphere, the so-called Hadamard-Gutzwiller model, we construct extremely long periodic orbits without compromising accuracy. We establish criteria for such long orbits to behave ergodically and to yield reliable statistics for self-crossings and avoided crossings. Self-encounters of periodic orbits are reflected in certain patterns within symbol sequences, and these allow for analytic treatment of the crossing statistics. In particular, the distributions of crossing angles and avoided-crossing widths thus come out as related by analytic continuation. Moreover, the action difference for Sieber-Richter pairs of orbits (one orbit has a self-crossing which the other narrowly avoids and otherwise the orbits look very nearly the same) results to all orders in the crossing angle. These findings may be helpful for extending the work of Sieber and Richter towards a fuller understanding of the classical basis of quantum spectral fluctuations.

Soft Billiards with Corners

We develop a framework for dealing with smooth approximations to billiards with corners in the two-dimensional setting. Let a polygonal trajectory in a billiard start and end up at the same billiard's corner point. We prove that smooth Hamiltonian flows which limit to this billiard have a nearby periodic orbit if and only if the polygon angles at the corner are acceptable. The criterion for a corner polygon to be acceptable depends on the smooth potential behavior at the corners, which is expressed in terms of a scattering function. We define such an asymptotic scattering function and prove the existence of it, explain how can it be calculated and predict some of its properties. In particular, we show that it is non-monotone for some potentials in some phase space regions. We prove that when the smooth system has a limiting periodic orbit it is hyperbolic provided the scattering function is not extremal there. We then prove that if the scattering function is extremal, the smooth system has elliptic periodic orbits limiting to the corner polygon, and, furthermore, that the return map near these periodic orbits is conjugate to a small perturbation of the Hénon map and therefore has elliptic islands. We find from the scaling that the island size is typically algebraic in the smoothing parameter and exponentially small in the number of reflections of the polygon orbit.
