Chaos is associated with stochasticity, complex, irregular motion, etc. It has some peculiar properties such as ergodicity, highly initial value sensitivity, non-periodicity and long-term unpredictability. These pseudo random features lead chaotic systems to enormous applications such as random number generator, image encryption and secure communication. In general, the concept of chaos is never associated with similarity. However, we found the chaotic systems belonging to one chaos family (OCF) have similar dynamic behavior, which is a novel characteristic of chaos. In this work, three classical chaotic system family are studied, which are Lorenz family, Chua family and hyperbolic sine family. These systems contain different derived chaotic systems (Lorenz system, Chen system and Lu system), different order chaotic systems (Chua family and hyperbolic sine family), and different kinds of chaotic systems (chaos and hyper-chaos). Their PSPs demonstrate that there exist strong correlation in OCF. Moreover, we found that high order/dimensional chaotic systems will inherit all dynamic behavior of lower ones, and the similarity will decrease as the order/dimensional goes higher, which is analogous to genetic process in biology. All of these features are quantitatively evaluated by PPMCC and SSIM.
A new method of virtual unknown parameter is proposed to synchronize two different systems with unknown parameters and disturbance in finite time. Virtual unknown parameters are introduced in order to avoid the unknown parameters from appearing in the controllers and parameters update laws when the adaptive control method is applied. A single virtual unknown parameter is used in the design of adaptive controllers and parameters update laws if the Lipschitz constant on the nonlinear function can be found, while multiple virtual unknown parameters are adopted if the Lipschitz constant cannot be determined. Numerical simulations show that the present method does make the two different chaotic systems synchronize in finite time.
Adaptive controllers are designed to synchronize two different chaotic systems with uncertainties, including unknown parameters, internal and external perturbations. Lyapunov stability theory is applied to prove that under some conditions the drive-response systems can achieve synchronization with uniform ultimate bound even though the bounds of uncertainties are not known exactly in advance. The designed controllers contain only feedback terms and partial nonlinear terms of the systems, and they are easy to implement in practice. The Lorenz system and Chen system are chosen as the illustrative example to verify the validity of the proposed method. Simulation results also show that the present control has good robustness against different kinds of disturbances.
Homoclinic and unstable periodic orbits in chaotic systems play central roles in various semiclassical sum rules. The interferences between terms are governed by the action functions and Maslov indices. In this article, we identify geometric relations between homoclinic and unstable periodic orbits, and derive exact formulae expressing the periodic orbit classical actions in terms of corresponding homoclinic orbit actions plus certain phase space areas. The exact relations provide a basis for approximations of the periodic orbit actions as action differences between homoclinic orbits with well-estimated errors. This make possible the explicit study of relations between periodic orbits, which results in an analytic expression for the action differences between long periodic orbits and their shadowing decomposed orbits in the cycle expansion.
The problem of separation of an observed sum of chaotic signals into the individual components in the presence of noise on the path to the observer is considered. A noise threshold is found above which high-quality separation is impossible. Below the threshold, each signal is recovered with any prescribed accuracy. This effect is shown to be associated with the information content of the chaotic signals and a theoretical estimate is given for the threshold.
Two deterministic models for Brownian motion are investigated by means of numerical simulations and kinetic theory arguments. The first model consists of a heavy hard disk immersed in a rarefied gas of smaller and lighter hard disks acting as a thermal bath. The second is the same except for the shape of the particles, which is now square. The basic difference of these two systems lies in the interaction: hard core elastic collisions make the dynamics of the disks chaotic whereas that of squares is not. Remarkably, this difference is not reflected in the transport properties of the two systems: simulations show that the diffusion coefficients, velocity correlations and response functions of the heavy impurity are in agreement with kinetic theory for both the chaotic and the non-chaotic model. The relaxation to equilibrium, however, is very sensitive to the kind of interaction. These observations are used to reconsider and discuss some issues connected to chaos, statistical mechanics and diffusion.
