Controlling Chaotic Behavior in a Bose-Einstein Condensate with Linear Feedback

The spatial structure of a Bose-Einstein condensate （BEC） loaded into an optical lattice potential is investigated and the spatially chaotic distributions of the condensates are revealed. A method of chaos control with linear feedback is presented in this paper. By using the method, we propose a scheme of controlling chaotic behavior in a BEC with atomic mirrors. The results of the computer simulation show that controlling the chaos into the stable states could be realized by adjusting the coefficient of feedback only if the maximum Lyapunov exponent of the system is negative.     

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.

Spatially Localized Models of Extended Systems

We investigate the construction of low-dimensional spatiallylocalized models of extended systems. Specifically, theKuramoto–Sivashinsky (KS) equation on large one-dimensional domainsdisplays spatiotemporally complex dynamics that are remarkablywell-localized in both real and Fourier space, as demonstrated by a(spline) wavelet representation. We show how wavelet projectionsmay be used to construct various localized, relativelylow-dimensional models of KS spatiotemporal chaos. There ispersuasive evidence that short, periodized systems, internally forcedat their largest scales, form minimal models for chaotic dynamics inarbitrarily large domains. Such models assist in the understandingof extended systems.     

The dynamical properties of Rydberg hydrogen atom near a metal surface

The dynamical properties of Rydberg hydrogen atom near a metal surface are presented by using the methods of phase space analysis and closed orbit theory. Transforming the coordinates of the Hamiltonian, we find that the phase space of the system is divided into vibrational and rotational region. Both the Poincaré surface of section and the closed orbit theory verify the same conclusion clearly. In this paper we choose the atomic principal quantum number asn=20. The dynamical character of the exited hydrogen atom depends sensitively on the atom-surface distanced. Whend is sufficiently large, the atom-surface potential can be expressed by the traditional van der Waals force and the system is integrable. Whend becomes smaller, there exists a critical valued _c. Ford>d _c, the system is near-integrable and the motion is regular. While chaotic motion appears ford<d _c, and the system tends to be non-integrable. The trajectories become unstable and the electron might be captured onto the metal surface.     

Intermittency at critical transitions and aging dynamics at the onset of chaos

We recall that at both the intermittency transitions and the Feigenbaum attractor, in unimodal maps of non-linearity of order ζ > 1, the dynamics rigorously obeys the Tsallis statistics. We account for theq-indices and the generalized Lyapunov coefficients λ^q that characterize the universality classes of the pitchfork and tangent bifurcations. We identify the Mori singularities in the Lyapunov spectrum at the onset of chaos with the appearance of a special value for the entropic indexq. The physical area of the Tsallis statistics is further probed by considering the dynamics near criticality and glass formation in thermal systems. In both cases a close connection is made with states in unimodal maps with vanishing Lyapunov coefficients.     

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.      

Open dynamic behaviour of financial markets

Open dynamic behaviour of financial markets with internal interactions between agents and with external “fields” from other systems are investigated using the approach of Grossman and Stiglitz for inefficient markets, and Keynes for interference of the market using physics of finance (referred to hereafter as phynance). The simulation results indicate that the NYSE data analyzed in Plerou, V. et al., Nature 421, 130 (2003) can be fitted by an equation of order parameter Φ and local deviation R of type: -(R+0.03) Φ+ 0.6 Φ³ + 0.02 = 0, which is shown to be in remarkable agreement with Plerou's data.     

Evidence of Strange Attractors in Class C Amplifier with Single Bipolar Transistor: Polynomial and Piecewise-Linear Case

This paper presents and briefly discusses recent observations of dynamics associated with isolated generalized bipolar transistor cells. A mathematical model of this simple system is considered on the highest level of abstraction such that it comprises many different network topologies. The key property of the analyzed structure is its bias point since the transistor is modeled via two-port admittance parameters. A necessary but not sufficient condition for the evolution of autonomous complex behavior is the nonlinear bilateral nature of the transistor with arbitrary reason that causes this effect. It is proved both by numerical analysis and experimental measurement that chaotic motion is miscellaneous, robust, and it is neither numerical artifact nor long transient motion.     

Transition to chaos in lid-driven square cavity flow

To date, there are very few studies on the transition beyond second Hopf bifurcation in a lid-driven square cavity, due to the difficulties in theoretical analysis and numerical simulations. In this paper, we study the characteristics of the third Hopf bifurcation in a driven square cavity by applying a consistent fourth-order compact finite difference scheme rectently developed by us. We numerically identify the critical Reynolds number of the third Hopf bifurcation located in the interval of (13944.7021,13946.5333) by the method of bisection. Through Fourier analysis, it is discovered that the flow becomes chaotic with a characteristic of period-doubling bifurcation when the Reynolds number is beyond the third bifurcation critical interval. Nonlinear time series analysis further ascertains the flow chaotic behaviors via the phase diagram, Kolmogorov entropy and maximal Lyapunov exponent. The phase diagram changes interestingly from a closed curve with self-intersection to an unclosed curve and the attractor eventually becomes strange when the flow becomes chaotic.
