The Plateau and Symmetrical Structure of Lyapunov Exponents in 2-Dimensional Homogeneous. Dissipative Map

The universal crossover behavior of Lyapunov exponents in transition from conservative limit to dissipative limit of dynamical system is studied. We discover numerically and prove analytically that for homogeneous dissipative two-dimensional maps, along the equal dissipation line in parameter space, two Lyapunov exponents λ₁ and λ₂ of periodic orbits possess a plateau structure, and around this exponent plateau value, there is a strict symmetrical relation between λ₁ and λ₂ no matter whether the orbit is periodic, quasiperiodic, or chaotic.The method calculating stable window and Lyapunov exponent plateau widths is given. For Hénon map and 2-dimensional circle map, the analytical and numerical results of plateau structure of Lyapunov exponents for period-1,2 and 3 orbits are presented.     

The Universal Plateau Structure of Lyapunov Exponents for Period Doubling Cascade Attractors

Using algebraic. analysis method for periodic orbits of Hknon map, we derive the boundary equations of stable window and Lyapunov exponent plateau region on the space of nonintegrability parameter A and dissipation parameter J. Ekom the real root of these equations, we obtain the plateau width of Lyapunov exponent W_p = A_p,max - A_p,min and the stable tvindorv width W_s = A_p,max - A_p,min for high periodic orbits. The calculated result of plateau structure ratio α4 = W_p/W_S for period-4 orbit agrees with the conjectural analytical formula: α4 = 2J²/(1+J⁴). Hence our result presents further evidence of universal dependence of Lyapunov exponent plateau structure on the dissipation parameter for period doubling cascade attractors of nonlinear system in transition from order to chaos.     

A new hyperchaotic system and its linear feedback control

This paper reports a new hyperchaotic system by adding an additional state variable into a three-dimensional chaotic dynamical system, studies some of its basic dynamical properties, such as the hyperchaotic attractor, Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagram and the hyperchaotic attractor evolving into periodic, quasi-periodic dynamical behaviours by varying parameter k. Furthermore, effective linear feedback control method is used to suppress hyperchaos to unstable equilibrium, periodic orbits and quasi-periodic orbits. Numerical simulations are presented to show these results.     

Determining Lyapunov exponents from a time series

We present the first algorithms that allow the estimation of non-negative Lyapunov exponents from an experimental time series. Lyapunov exponents, which provide a qualitative and quantitative characterization of dynamical behavior, are related to the exponentially fast divergence or convergence of nearby orbits in phase space. A system with one or more positive Lyapunov exponents is defined to be chaotic. Our method is rooted conceptually in a previously developed technique that could only be applied to analytically defined model systems: we monitor the long-term growth rate of small volume elements in an attractor. The method is tested on model systems with known Lyapunov spectra, and applied to data for the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction and Couette-Taylor flow.     

THE CONTROL ACTION OF THE PERIODIC PERTURBATION ON A HYPERCHAOTIC SYSTEM

This paper presents a four-dimensional nonlinear dynamical system. By the numerical simulation the hyperchaotic attractor, Lyapunov exponents and Lyapunov dimension are obtained, also it is confirmed that hyperchaos can be driven in the system described by the equation. The control action of the periodic perturbation on the autonomous hyperchaotic system is studied, and a control rule is obtained which indicates the relationship of the control action and the frequency characteristics after degeneration of the system. Finaly the circuit implementation of the dynamical system is given.     

Dynamics and Entropy in the Zhang Model of Self-Organized Criticality

We give a detailed study of dynamical properties of the Zhang model, including evaluation of topological entropy and estimates for the Lyapunov exponents and the dimension of the attractor. In the thermodynamic limit the entropy goes to zero and the Lyapunov spectrum collapses.     

The largest Lyapunov exponent of chaotic dynamical system in scale space and its application

The largest Lyapunov exponent is an important invariant of detecting and characterizing chaos produced from a dynamical system. We have found analytically that the largest Lyapunov exponent of the small-scale wavelet transform modulus of a dynamical system is the same as the system's largest Lyapunov exponent, both discrete map and continuous chaotic attractor with one or two positive Lyapunov exponents. This property has been used to estimate the largest Lyapunov exponent of chaotic time series with several kinds of strong additive noise.     

Hydrodynamic Lyapunov Modes in Translation-Invariant Systems

We study the implications of translation invariance on the tangent dynamics of extended dynamical systems, within a random matrix approximation. In a model system, we show the existence of hydrodynamic modes in the slowly growing part of the Lyapunov spectrum, which are analogous to the hydrodynamic modes discovered numerically by Dellago, Posch, and Hoover. The hydrodynamic Lyapunov vectors lose the typical random structure and exhibit instead the structure of weakly perturbed coherent long-wavelength waves. We show further that the amplitude of the perturbations vanishes in the thermodynamic limit, and that the associated Lyapunov exponents are universal.     

The quasi-periodic doubling cascade in the transition to weak turbulence

The quasi-periodic doubling cascade is shown to occur in the transition from regular to weakly turbulent behaviour in simulations of incompressible Navier–Stokes flow on a three-periodic domain. Special symmetries are imposed on the flow field in order to reduce the computational effort. Thus we can apply tools from dynamical systems theory such as continuation of periodic orbits and computation of Lyapunov exponents. We propose a model ODE for the quasi-period doubling cascade which, in a limit of a perturbation parameter to zero, avoids resonance related problems. The cascade we observe in the simulations is then compared to the perturbed case, in which resonances complicate the bifurcation scenario. In particular, we compare the frequency spectrum and the Lyapunov exponents. The perturbed model ODE is shown to be in good agreement with the simulations of weak turbulence. The scaling of the observed cascade is shown to resemble the unperturbed case, which is directly related to the well known doubling cascade of periodic orbits.     

Dynamical hysteresis and spatial synchronization in coupled non-identical chaotic oscillators

We identify a novel phenomenon in distinct (namely non-identical) coupled chaotic systems, which we term dynamical hysteresis. This behavior, which appears to be universal, is defined in terms of the system dynamics (quantified for example through the Lyapunov exponents), and arises from the presence of at least two coexisting stable attractors over a finite range of coupling, with a change of stability outside this range. Further characterization via mutual synchronization indices reveals that one attractor corresponds to spatially synchronized oscillators, while the other corresponds to desynchronized oscillators. Dynamical hysteresis may thus help to understand critical aspects of the dynamical behavior of complex biological systems, e.g. seizures in the epileptic brain can be viewed as transitions between different dynamical phases caused by time dependence in the brain’s internal coupling.

What Can One Learn About Self-Organized Criticality from Dynamical Systems Theory?

We develop a dynamical system approach for the Zhang model of self-organized criticality, for which the dynamics can be described either in terms of iterated function systems or as a piecewise hyperbolic dynamical system of skew-product type. In this setting we describe the SOC attractor, and discuss its fractal structure. We show how the Lyapunov exponents, the Haussdorf dimensions, and the system size are related to the probability distribution of the avalanche size via the Ledrappier–Young formula.     

Fractal basin boundaries

Basin boundaries for dynamical systems can be either smooth or fractal. This paper investigates fractal basin boundaries. One practical consequence of such boundaries is that they can lead to great difficulty in predicting to which attractor a system eventually goes. The structure of fractal basin boundaries can be classified as being either locally connected or locally disconnected. Examples and discussion of both types of structures are given, and it appears that fractal basin boundaries should be common in typical dynamical systems. Lyapunov numbers and the dimension for the measure generated by inverse orbits are also discussed.     

Statistical-thermodynamic approach to a chaotic dynamical system: Exactly solvable examples

The static and dynamic properties of a chaotic attractor of a two-dimensional map are studied, which belongs to a particular class of piecewise continuous invertible maps. Coverings of a natural size to cover the attractor are introduced, so that the microscopic information of the attractor is written on each box composing the cover. The statistical thermodynamics of the scaling indices and the size indices of the boxes is formulated. Analytic forms of the free energy functions of the scaling indices and the size indices of the boxes are obtained for examples of a hyperbolic and a nonhyperbolic chaotic attractor. The statistical thermodynamics of local Lyapunov exponents is also studied and a relation between the thermodynamics of scaling indices and of local Lyapunov exponents is invetigated. For the nonhyperbolic example, the free energy and entropy functions of local Lyapunov exponents are obtained in analytic forms. These results display the existence of phase transitions. A phase transition is seen in the thermodynamics of scaling indices also.

A three-scroll chaotic attractor

This Letter introduces a new chaotic member to the three-dimensional smooth autonomous quadratic system family, which derived from the classical Lorenz system but exhibits a three-scroll chaotic attractor. Interestingly, the two other scrolls are symmetry related with respect to the z-axis as for the Lorenz attractor, but the third scroll of this three-scroll chaotic attractor is around the z-axis. Some basic dynamical properties, such as Lyapunov exponents, fractal dimension, Poincaré map and chaotic dynamical behaviors of the new chaotic system are investigated, either numerically or analytically. The obtained results clearly show this is a new chaotic system and deserves further detailed investigation.

Differential System＇s Nonlinear Behaviour of Real Nonlinear Dynamical Systems

Chaos attractor behaviour is usually preserved if the four basic arithmetic operations, i.e. addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, or their compound, are applied. First-order differential systems of one-dimensional real discrete dynamical systems and nonautonomous real continuous-time dynamical systems are also dynamical systems and their Lyapunov exponents are kept, if they are twice differentiable. These two conclusions are shown here by the definitions of dynamical system and Lyapunov exponent. Numerical simulations support our analytical results. The conclusions can apply to higher order differential systems if their corresponding order differentials exist.     

Design and implementation of a novel multi-scroll chaotic system

This paper proposes a novel approach for generating a multi-scroll chaotic system. Together with the theoretical design and numerical simulations, three different types of attractor are available, governed by constructing triangular wave, sawtooth wave and hysteresis sequence. The presented new multi-scroll chaotic system is different from the classical multi-scroll chaotic Chua system in dimensionless state equations, nonlinear functions and maximum Lyapunov exponents. In addition, the basic dynamical behaviours, including equilibrium points, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, eigenplanes, bifurcation diagrams and Lyapunov exponents, are further investigated. The success of the design is illustrated by both numerical simulations and circuit experiments.
