Chaotic dynamical systems characteristically exhibit erratic, seemingly random, behavior. They are highly sensitive to initial conditions. Any alteration to the state of a chaotic system will eventually lead to very large differences in behavior. Until recently, the preferred approach to chaotic dynamical systems has been to avoid them. A method developed by Ott, Grebogi, and Yorke (OGY) takes ...

The seminal papers by Pecora and Carrol (PC) [1] and Ott, Grebogi and Yorke (OGY) [2] in 1990 have induced avalanche of research works in the field of chaos control. Chaos synchronization in dynamical systems is one of methods of controling chaos, see, e.g. [1-8] and references therein.The interest to chaos synchronization in part is due to the application of this phenomenen in secure communica...

Wolfram divided the 256 elementary cellular automata rules informally into four classes using dynamical concepts like periodicity, stability, and chaos. Rule 14, which is Bernoulli στ -shift rule and is a member of Wolfram’s class II, is said to be simple as periodic before. Therefore, it is worthwhile studying dynamical behaviors of rule 14, whether it possesses chaotic attractors or not. In t...

A variety of methods have been developed in nonlinear science to stabilize unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) and control chaos [1], following the seminal work by Ott, Grebogi and Yorke [2], who employed a tiny control force to stabilize UPOs embedded in a chaotic attractor [3, 4]. A particularly simple and efficient scheme is time-delayed feedback as suggested by Pyragas [5], which uses the diffe...

In this work, we analyzed the impact of interventions on populations which exhibit unimodal dynamics. The six landmarks that characterize the “shape” of the unimodal reproduction curve   f x of the difference equation,   1 n n X f X   , are defined and used in order to examine and determine the behavior of dynamics of populations. By using the Li-Yorke criterion for determination of chaos...

This paper yields process of development, numerical analysis, lumped circuit modeling, and experimental verification a new hyperchaotic oscillator based on the fundamental topology two-stage amplifier. Analyzed network structure contains two generalized bipolar transistors connected with common emitter. Both are initially modeled as two-ports via full admittance matrix, considering linear backw...

Controlling chaos has been an extremely active area of research in applied dynamical systems, following the introduction of the Ott, Grebogi, Yorke (OGY) technique in 1990 [Ott et al., 1990], but most of this research based on parametric feedback control uses local techniques. Associated with a dynamical system which pushes forward initial conditions in time, transfer operators, including the F...

A homeomorphism f : X → X of a compactum X is expansive (resp. continuum-wise expansive) if there is c > 0 such that if x, y ∈ X and x 6= y (resp. if A is a nondegenerate subcontinuum of X), then there is n ∈ Z such that d(f(x), f(y)) > c (resp. diam f(A) > c). We prove the following theorem: If f is a continuum-wise expansive homeomorphism of a compactum X and the covering dimension of X is po...

The attractor dimension at the transition to complete synchronization in a network of chaotic units with time-delayed couplings is investigated. In particular, we determine the Kaplan-Yorke dimension from the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents for iterated maps and for two coupled semiconductor lasers. We argue that the Kaplan-Yorke dimension must be discontinuous at the transition and compare it t...
