THE UNIVERSAL TRANSITION OF PLATEAU STRUCTURE OF LYAPUNOV EXPONENTS

The universal transition of Lyapunov exponents between conservative limit and dissipa-tire limit of nonlinear dynamical system is studied. It is discovered numerically and proved analytically that for homogeneous dissipative two-dimensional maps, along the equal dissi-pation line in parameter space, the Lyapunov exponents of attractor orbits possess a plateau structure and strict symmetry about its plateau value, The ratios between the plateau width and the stable window width of period 1-4 orbits for Henon map are calculated. The result shows that the plateau structure of Lyapunov exponents remains invariant for the attractor orbits belonging to a period doubling bifurcation sequence. This fact reveals a new universal transition behavior between order and chaos when the dissipation of the dynamical system is weakened to zero.     

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.     

Characterization of transition to chaos with multiple positive Lyapunov exponents by unstable periodic orbits

We investigate how the transition to chaos with multiple positive Lyapunov exponents can be characterized by the set of infinite number of unstable periodic orbits embedded in the chaotic invariant set. We argue and provide numerical confirmation that the transition is generally accompanied by a nonhyperbolic behavior: unstable dimension variability. As a consequence, the Lyapunov exponents, except for the largest one, pass through zero continuously.     

Track Billiards

We study a class of planar billiards having the remarkable property that their phase space consists up to a set of zero measure of two invariant sets formed by orbits moving in opposite directions. The tables of these billiards are tubular neighborhoods of differentiable Jordan curves that are unions of finitely many segments and arcs of circles. We prove that under proper conditions on the segments and the arcs, the billiards considered have non-zero Lyapunov exponents almost everywhere. These results are then extended to a similar class of 3-dimensional billiards. Interestingly, we find that for some track billiards, the mechanism generating hyperbolicity is not the defocusing one, which requires every infinitesimal beam of parallel rays to defocus after every reflection off of the focusing boundary.     

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.     

On noninvertible mappings of the plane: Eruptions

In this paper we are concerned with the dynamics of noninvertible transformations of the plane. Three examples are explored and possibly a new bifurcation, or "eruption," is described. A fundamental role is played by the interactions of fixed points and singular curves. Other critical elements in the phase space include periodic points and an invariant line. The dynamics along the invariant line, in two of the examples, reduces to the one-dimensional Newton's method which is conjugate to a degree two rational map. We also determine, computationally, the characteristic exponents for all of the systems. An unexpected coincidence is that the parameter range where the invariant line becomes neutrally stable, as measured by a zero Lyapunov exponent, coincides with the merging of a periodic point with a point on a singular curve.

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.     

Anti-control of chaos in Bose-Einstein condensates

The spatial structure of a Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) loaded into an optical lattice potential is investigated. We suggest a method for generating chaos in BEC by modulating periodic signals to convert the regular states into chaotic states. The maximal Lyapunov exponent is calculated as a function of modulation intensity and modulation frequency respectively, and the chaotic orbits associated with the positive Lyapunov exponents.      

Superperiodicity,chaos and coexisting orbits of ion-acoustic waves in a four-component nonextensive plasma

Superperiodicity, chaos and coexisting orbits of ion-acoustic waves (IAWs) are studied in a multi-component plasma consisting of fluid ions, q -nonextensive cold and hot electrons and Maxwellian hot positrons. The significant impacts of the system parameters on superperiodic and nonlinear periodic IAWs are presented. Considering an external periodic perturbation various types of quasiperiodic and chaotic features for IAWs are studied in different parametric ranges through time series’ plots, phase spaces and Lyapunov exponents. It has been observed that there exist some coexisting orbits for IAWs. Coexisting orbits for IAWs in a classical electron–positron–ion plasma system are reported.

Symmetry properties of periodic orbits extracted from scattering data

Discrete symmetries of a system are reflected in the properties of the shortest periodic orbits. By applying a recent method to extract these from the scaling of the fractal structure in scattering functions, we show how the symmetries can be extracted from scattering data simultaneously with the periods and the Lyapunov exponents. We pay particular attention to the change of scattering data under a small symmetry breaking.     

Adaptive modification of the delayed feedback control algorithm with a continuously varying time delay

We propose a simple adaptive delayed feedback control algorithm for stabilization of unstable periodic orbits with unknown periods. The state dependent time delay is varied continuously towards the period of controlled orbit according to a gradient-descent method realized through three simple ordinary differential equations. We demonstrate the efficiency of the algorithm with the Rössler and Mackey-Glass chaotic systems. The stability of the controlled orbits is proven by computation of the Lyapunov exponents of linearized equations.     

Globally enumerating unstable periodic orbits for observed data using symbolic dynamics

The unstable periodic orbits of a chaotic system provide an important skeleton of the dynamics in a chaotic system, but they can be difficult to find from an observed time series. We present a global method for finding periodic orbits based on their symbolic dynamics, which is made possible by several recent methods to find good partitions for symbolic dynamics from observed time series. The symbolic dynamics are approximated by a Markov chain estimated from the sequence using information-theoretical concepts. The chain has a probabilistic graph representation, and the cycles of the graph may be exhaustively enumerated with a classical deterministic algorithm, providing a global, comprehensive list of symbolic names for its periodic orbits. Once the symbolic codes of the periodic orbits are found, the partition is used to localize the orbits back in the original state space. Using the periodic orbits found, we can estimate several quantities of the attractor such as the Lyapunov exponent and topological entropy.     

Phase resetting effects for robust cycles between chaotic sets

In the presence of symmetries or invariant subspaces, attractors in dynamical systems can become very complicated, owing to the interaction with the invariant subspaces. This gives rise to a number of new phenomena, including that of robust attractors showing chaotic itinerancy. At the simplest level this is an attracting heteroclinic cycle between equilibria, but cycles between more general invariant sets are also possible. In this paper we introduce and discuss an instructive example of an ordinary differential equation where one can observe and analyze robust cycling behavior. By design, we can show that there is a robust cycle between invariant sets that may be chaotic saddles (whose internal dynamics correspond to a R?ssler system), and/or saddle equilibria. For this model, we distinguish between cycling that includes phase resetting connections (where there is only one connecting trajectory) and more general non(phase) resetting cases, where there may be an infinite number (even a continuum) of connections. In the nonresetting case there is a question of connection selection: which connections are observed for typical attracted trajectories? We discuss the instability of this cycling to resonances of Lyapunov exponents and relate this to a conjecture that phase resetting cycles typically lead to stable periodic orbits at instability, whereas more general cases may give rise to "stuck on" cycling. Finally, we discuss how the presence of positive Lyapunov exponents of the chaotic saddle mean that we need to be very careful in interpreting numerical simulations where the return times become long; this can critically influence the simulation of phase resetting and connection selection.     

Measures with infinite Lyapunov exponents for the periodic Lorentz gas

We study invariant measures for the periodic Lorentz gas which are supported on the set of points with infinite Lyapunov exponents. We construct examples of such measures which are measures of maximal entropy and ones which are not.     

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.
