Symmetry-increasing bifurcation of chaotic attractors

Bifurcation in symmetric is typically associated with spontaneous symmetry breaking. That is, bifurcation is associated with new solution having less symmetry.In this paper we show that symmetry-increasing bifurcation in the discrete dynamics of symmetric mappings is possible (and is perhaps generic). The reason for these bifurcations may be understood as follows. The existence of one attractor in a system with symmetry gives rise to a family of conjugate attractors all related by symmetry. Typically, in computer experiments, what we see is a sequence of symmetry-breaking bifurcations leading to the existence of conjugate chaotic attractors. As the bifurcation parameter is varied these attractors grow in size and merge leading to a single attractor having greater symmetry.We prove a theorem suggesting why this new attractor should have greater symmetry and present a number of striking examples of the symmetric patterns that can be formed by iterating the simplest mappings on the plane with the symmetry of the regular m-gon. In the last section we discuss period-doubling in the presence of symmetry.     

Statistical description of chaotic attractors: The dimension function

A method for the investigation of fractal attractors is developed, based on statistical properties of the distributionP(δ, n) of nearest-neighbor distancesδ between points on the attractor. A continuous infinity of dimensions, called dimension function, is defined through the moments ofP(δ, n). In particular, for the case of self-similar sets, we prove that the dimension function DF yields, in suitable points, capacity, information dimension, and all other Renyi dimensions. An algorithm to compute DF is derived and applied to several attractors. As a consequence, an estimate of nonuniformity in dynamical systems can be performed, either by direct calculation of the uniformity factor, or by comparison among various dimensions. Finally, an analytical study of the distributionP(δ, n) is carried out in some simple, meaningful examples.     

混沌吸引子的对称破缺激变

On the Hausdorff dimension of fractal attractors

We consider such mappingsx _n+1=F(x_n) of an interval into itself for which the attractor is a Cantor set. For the same class of mappings for which the Feigenbaum scaling laws hold, we show that the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor is universally equal toD=0.538 ...     

Quantities describing local properties of chaotic attractors

We numerically investigate the Local Divergence Rate (LDR) of the Hénon-map. We find that there exists a unique smooth LDR on the Hénon-attractor; locally expanding and contracting parts alternate regularly. Our concept leads to the definition of what we call fully developed chaos. Distribution functions (histograms) and auto-correlation functions for different dynamical behavior are computed. Our results indicate that the LDR may be a continuous function on the space in which the attractor is embedded.

On a class of symmetrical chaotic attractors

A single symmetrical chaotic attractor, in which a typical trajectory time can be divided into two phases: long laminar phases and short bursts, is a result of a chaos-chaos transition. The quantities with which this attractor is characterized are pointed out and some relations between them are investigated.     

Synchronization of chaotic systems with coexisting attractors

Synchronization of coupled oscillators exhibiting the coexistence of chaotic attractors is investigated, both numerically and experimentally. The route from the asynchronous motion to a completely synchronized state is characterized by the sequence of type-I and on-off intermittencies, intermittent phase synchronization, anticipated synchronization, and period-doubling phase synchronization.     

On the symmetry-breaking bifurcation of chaotic attractors

A new type of crisis is shown to exist in a broad class of systems (including the Lorenz model) which leads to an anomalous band splitting or to a symmetry-breaking bifurcation of the strange attractor, depending on the actual values of the control parameters. A piecewise linear model is used to understand the mechanism of this crisis and to obtain exact results.     

Multifolded torus chaotic attractors: design and implementation

This paper proposes a systematic methodology for creating multifolded torus chaotic attractors from a simple three-dimensional piecewise-linear system. Theoretical analysis shows that the multifolded torus chaotic attractors can be generated via alternative switchings between two basic linear systems. The theoretical design principle and the underlying dynamic mechanism are then further investigated by analyzing the emerging bifurcation and the stable and unstable subspaces of the two basic linear systems. A novel block circuit diagram is also designed for hardware implementation of 3-, 5-, 7-, 9-folded torus chaotic attractors via switching the corresponding switches. This is the first time a 9-folded torus chaotic attractor generated by an analog circuit has been verified experimentally. Furthermore, some recursive formulas of system parameters are rigorously derived, which is useful for improving hardware implementation.

Determination of chaotic attractors in the rat brain

The existence of low-dimensional deterministic structures in experimental time series, derived from the occurrences of spikes in electrophysiological recordings from rat brains, has been revealed in 7 out of 27 samples. The correlation dimension of the chaotic attractors ranged between 0.14 and 3.3 embedded in a space of dimension 2–6. A test on surrogate data was also performed.     

Sampling period,statistical complexity,and chaotic attractors

We analyze the statistical complexity measure vs. entropy plane-representation of sampled chaotic attractors as a function of the sampling period τ$\tau$ and show that, if the Bandt and Pompe procedure is used to assign a probability distribution function (PDF) to the pertinent time series, the statistical complexity measure (SCM) attains a definite maximum for a specific sampling period  _tM$t_M$. On the contrary, the usual histogram approach for assigning PDFs to a time series leads to essentially constant SCM values for any sampling period τ$\tau$. The significance of _tM$t_M$ is further investigated by comparing it with typical times found in the literature for the two main reconstruction processes: the Takens’ one in a delay-time embedding, on one hand, and the exact Nyquist–Shannon reconstruction, on the other one. It is shown that _tM$t_M$ is compatible with those times recommended as adequate delay ones in Takens’ reconstruction. The reported results correspond to three representative chaotic systems having correlation dimension 2<_D2<3$2<D_2<3$. One recent experiment confirms the analysis presented here.
