Chaos induced by weak A-coupled-expansion of non-autonomous discrete dynamical systems

This paper focuses on chaos induced by weak A-coupled-expansion of non-autonomous discrete systems in compact subsets of metric spaces and in bounded and closed subsets of complete metric spaces, separately. A new concept of weak A-coupled-expansion for non-autonomous discrete systems, whose condition is weaker than that of A-coupled-expansion, is introduced, and several new criteria of chaos induced by weak A-coupled-expansion of non-autonomous discrete systems are established. By applying some close relationships between chaotic dynamical behaviours of the original system and its induced systems, two criteria of chaos are established. One example is provided for illustration.     

A note on transitivity,sensitivity and chaos for graph maps

Two elementary proofs showing that (i) transitivity and sensitivity imply dense periodicity for maps on topological graphs and (ii) total transitivity and dense periodicity imply mixing for maps on spaces with an open subset homeomorphic with the open interval (0,1) are presented. As corollaries, one gets new and simple proofs that Auslander–Yorke chaos implies Devaney chaos, and weak mixing implies mixing for graph maps.     

Several transitive properties and Devaney’s chaos

The relation among transitivity, indecomposability and Z-transitivity is discussed. It is shown that for a non-wandering system (each point is non-wandering), indecomposability is equivalent to transitivity, and for the dynamical systems without isolated points, Z-transitivity and transitivity are equivalent. Besides, a new transitive level as weak transitivity is introduced and some equivalent conditions of Devaney's chaos are given by weak transitivity. Moreover, it is proved that both d-shadowing property and d-shadowing property imply weak transitivity.     

A note on distributional chaos with respect to a sequence

The aim of this note is to use methods developed by Kuratowski and Mycielski to prove that some more common notions in topological dynamics imply distributional chaos with respect to a sequence. In particular, we show that the notion of distributional chaos with respect to a sequence is only slightly stronger than the definition of chaos due to Li and Yorke. Namely, positive topological entropy and weak mixing both imply distributional chaos with respect to a sequence, which is not the case for distributional chaos as introduced by Schweizer and Smítal.     

Recent development of chaos theory in topological dynamics

We give a summary on the recent development of chaos theory in topological dynamics,focusing on Li–Yorke chaos, Devaney chaos, distributional chaos, positive topological entropy, weakly mixing sets and so on, and their relationships.     

集值动力系统中的混合性和混沌

设(X,d)是紧致度量空间.设(K,H)是X中所有非空紧子集所组成的空间,并赋予由d导出的Hausdorff度量H.主要探讨了拓扑动力系统(X,G)的混合性、混沌和集值动力系统(K,G)的混合性、混沌之间的关系,其中G是拓扑群.     

混沌与拓扑强混合

讨论了拓扑强混合、Li—Yorke混沌和修改的Devaney混沌三者之间的关系,我们得到:Li—Yorke混沌与修改的Devaney混沌无蕴涵关系;Li—Yorke混沌和修改的Devaney混沌均不能蕴涵着拓扑强混合,这解决了文献[1]中提出的两个问题.     

完备度量空间中的混沌判定

本文研究完备度量空间上的离散动力系统的混沌标准,证明了如果完备度量空间X上的连续映射f具有正则非退化返回排斥子或连接不动点的正则非退化异宿环,则存在f的不变闭子集A,使得f限制在此不变闭子集上的子系统与两个符号的符号动力系统拓扑共轭,从而获得具有这类结构的连续映射f具有Devaney混沌、分布混沌、正拓扑熵及ω-混沌,此结果改进了已有的相关结果.     

Discrete chaos in Banach spaces

This paper is concerned with chaos in discrete dynamical systems governed by continuously Frech@t differentiable maps in Banach spaces. A criterion of chaos induced by a regular nondegenerate homoclinic orbit is established. Chaos of discrete dynamical systems in the n-dimensional real space is also discussed, with two criteria derived for chaos induced by nondegenerate snap-back repellers, one of which is a modified version of Marotto's theorem. In particular, a necessary and sufficient condition is obtained for an expanding fixed point of a differentiate map in a general Banach space and in an n-dimensional real space, respectively. It completely solves a long-standing puzzle about the relationship between the expansion of a continuously differentiable map near a fixed point in an n-dimensional real space and the eigenvalues of the Jacobi matrix of the map at the fixed point.     

Chaos behavior in the discrete Fitzhugh nerve system

The discrete Fitzhugh nerve systems obtained by the Euler method is investigated and it is proved that there exist chaotic phenomena in the sense of Marotto’s definition of chaos. And numerical simulations not only show the consistence with the theoretical analysis but also exhibit the complex dynarnical behaviors, including the ten-periodic orbit, a cascade of period-doubling bifurcation, quasiperiodic orbits and the chaotic orbits and intermittent chaos. The computations of Lyapunov exponents confirm the chaos behaviors. Moreover we also find a strange attractor having the self-similar ohit structure as that of Henon attractor.     

Distributional chaos in random dynamical systems

In this paper, we introduce the notion of distributional chaos and the measure of chaos for random dynamical systems generated by two interval maps. We give some sufficient conditions for a zero measure of chaos and examples of chaotic systems. We demonstrate that the chaoticity of the functions that generate a system does not, in general, affect the chaoticity of the system, i.e. a chaotic system can arise from two nonchaotic functions and vice versa. Finally, we show that distributional chaos for random dynamical system is, in some sense, unstable.     

关于连续区间映射的敏感依赖性

首先证明:若区间映射f是敏感依赖的,则f的拓扑熵ent(f)>0.然后通过引入一种扩张映射进一步证明了敏感依赖的区间映射的拓扑熵的下确界为0,即,上式中拓扑熵的下界0是最优的.最后通过实例展示稠混沌、Spatio-temporal混沌、Li-Yorke敏感及敏感性之间是几乎互不蕴含的.     

Chaos of time-varying discrete dynamical systems

This paper is concerned with chaos of time-varying (i.e. non-autonomous) discrete systems in metric spaces. Some basic concepts are introduced for general time-varying systems, including periodic point, coupled-expansion for transitive matrix, uniformly topological equiconjugacy, and three definitions of chaos, i.e. chaos in the sense of Devaney and Wiggins, respectively, and in a strong sense of Li–Yorke. An interesting observation is that a finite-dimensional linear time-varying system can be chaotic in the original sense of Li–Yorke, but cannot have chaos in the strong sense of Li–Yorke, nor in the sense of Devaney in a set containing infinitely many points, and nor in the sense of Wiggins in a set starting from which all the orbits are bounded. A criterion of chaos in the original sense of Li–Yorke is established for finite-dimensional linear time-varying systems. Some basic properties of topological conjugacy are discussed. In particular, it is shown that topological conjugacy alone cannot guarantee two topologically conjugate time-varying systems to have the same topological properties in general. In addition, a criterion of chaos induced by strict coupled-expansion for a certain irreducible transitive matrix is established, under which the corresponding nonlinear system is proved chaotic in the strong sense of Li–Yorke. Two illustrative examples are finally provided with computer simulations for illustration.     

按序列分布混沌与拓扑混合

本文讨论了按序列分布混沌与拓扑混合的关系,并证明了:若X为至少两点的可分局部紧致度量空间,连续映射f:X→X是拓扑混合的,则对于任一正整数递增序列{mi},存在X的c-稠密Fσ子集D是f按{mi}的某子序列的分布混沌集.     

Homoclinic orbits and chaos in discretized perturbed NLS systems: Part II. Symbolic dynamics

Summary In Part I ([9], this journal), Li and McLaughlin proved the existence of homoclinic orbits in certain discrete NLS systems. In this paper, we will construct Smale horseshoes based on the existence of homoclinic orbits in these systems. First, we will construct Smale horseshoes for a general high dimensional dynamical system. As a result, a certain compact, invariant Cantor set Λ is constructed. The Poincaré map on Λ induced by the flow is shown to be topologically conjugate to the shift automorphism on two symbols, 0 and 1. This gives rise to deterministicchaos. We apply the general theory to the discrete NLS systems as concrete examples. Of particular interest is the fact that the discrete NLS systems possess a symmetric pair of homoclinic orbits. The Smale horseshoes and chaos created by the pair of homoclinic orbits are also studied using the general theory. As a consequence we can interpret certain numerical experiments on the discrete NLS systems as “chaotic center-wing jumping.”     

The weak specification property and distributional chaos

In this paper, we first discuss almost periodic points in a compact dynamical system with the weak specification property. On the basis of this discussion, we draw two conclusions: (i) the weak specification property implies a dense Mycielski uniform distributionally scrambled set; (ii) the weak specification property and a fixed point imply a dense Mycielski uniform invariant distributionally scrambled set. These conclusions improve on some of the latest results concerning the specification property, and give a final positive answer to an open problem posed in [P. Oprocha, Invariant scrambled sets and distributional chaos, Dyn. Syst. 24 (2009), 31–43].     

Chaos induced by snap-back repellers in non-autonomous discrete dynamical systems

This paper focuses on chaos induced by snap-back repellers in non-autonomous discrete systems. A new concept of snap-back repeller for non-autonomous discrete systems is introduced and several new criteria of chaos induced by snap-back repellers in non-autonomous discrete systems are established. In addition, it is proved that a regular and nondegenerate snap-back repeller in non-autonomous discrete systems implies chaos in the (strong) sense of Li–Yorke. Two illustrative examples are proved.     

Bifurcations and chaos of a discrete mathematical model for respiratory process in bacterial culture

The discrete mathematical model for the respiratory process in bacterial culture obtained by Euler method is investigated. The conditions of existence for flip bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation are derived by using center manifold theorem and bifurcation theory, condition of existence of chaos in the sense of Marotto＇s definition of chaos is proved. The bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents and phase portraits are given for different parameters of the model, and the fractal dimension of chaotic attractor was also calculated. The numerical simulation results confirm the theoretical analysis and also display the new and complex dynamical behaviors compared with the continuous model. In particular~ we found that the new chaotic attractor, and new types of two or four coexisting chaotic attractors, and two coexisting invariant torus.
