The classic approach to phase-space re- construction through the methodology of delay-coordinate embedding has been practiced for more than three decades, but the paradigm is effective mostly for low-dimensional dynamical systems. Often, the methodology yields only a topological correspondence of the original system. There are situations in various fields of science and engineering where the systems of interest are complex and high dimensional with many interacting components. A complex system typically exhibits a rich variety of collective dynamics, and it is of great interest to be able to detect, classify, under- stand, predict, and control the dynamics using data that are becoming increasingly accessible due to the advances of modern information technology. To accomplish these tasks, especially prediction and control, an accurate reconstruction of the original system is required.

  • Strange Attractors That Are Not Chaotic
    Physica 13D (1984) 261-268 North-Holland, Amsterdam STRANGE ATTRACTORS THAT ARE NOT CHAOTIC Celso GREBOGI, a Edward OTT, ~b Steven PELIKAN, c and James A. YORKE d Received 7. February 1984 It is shown that in certain types of dynamical systems it is possible to have attractors which are strange but not chaotic. Here we use the word strange to refer to the geometry or shape of the attracting set, while the word chaotic refers to the dynamics of orbits on the attractor (in particular, the exponential divergence of nearby trajectories). We first give examples for which it can be demonstrated that there is a strange nonchaotic attractor. These examples apply to a class of maps which model nonlinear oscillators (continuous time) which are externally driven at two incommensurate frequencies. It is then shown that such attractors are persistent under perturbations which preserve the original system type (i.e., there are two incommensurate external driving frequencies). This suggests that, for systems of the type which we have considered, nonchaotic strange attractors may be expected to occur for a finite interval of parameter values. On the other hand, when small perturbations which do not preserve the system type are numerically introduced the strange nonchaotic attractor is observed to be converted to a periodic or chaotic orbit. Thus we conjecture that, in general, continuous time systems (" flows") which are not externally driven at two incommensurate frequencies should not be expected to have strange nonchaotic attractors except possibly on a set of measure zero in the parameter space. 1. Introduction and definitions ties [1] such as noninteger fractal dimension, Cantor set structure, or nowhere differentiability.

  • Crises, Sudden Changes in Chaotic Attractors, and Transient Chaos
    Physica 7D (1983) 181-200 North-Holland Publishing Company CRISES, SUDDEN CHANGES IN CHAOTIC ATTRACTORS, AND TRANSIENT CHAOS Celso GREBOGI and Edward OTT Laboratory for Plasma and Fusion Energy Studies, Unit'ersity of Maryland, College Park, Md. 20742, USA and James A. YORKE Institute for Physical Science and Technology and Department of Mathematics, Unit ersi O, of Mao'land, College Park, Md. 20742, USA The occurrence of sudden qualitative changes of chaotic dynamics as a parameter is varied is discussed and illustrated. It is shown that such changes may result from the collision of an unstable periodic orbit and a coexisting chaotic attractor. We call such collisions crises. Phenomena associated with crises include sudden changes in the size of chaotic attractors, sudden appearances of chaotic attractors (a possible route to chaos), and sudden destructions of chaotic attractors and their basins. This paper presents examples illustrating that crisis events are prevalent in many circumstances and systems, and that, just past a crisis, certain characteristic statistical behavior (whose type depends on the type of crisis) occurs. In particular the phenomenon of chaotic transients is investigated. The examples discussed illustrate crises in progressively higher dimension and include the one-dimensional quadratic map, the (two-dimensional) H~non map, systems of ordinary differential equations in three dimensions and a three-dimensional map. In the case of our study of the three-dimensional map a new route to chaos is proposed which is possible only in invertible maps or flows of dimension at least three or four, respectively. Based on the examples presented the following conjecture is proposed: almost all sudden changes in the size of chaotic attractors and almost all sudden destructions or creations of chaotic attractors and their basins are due to crises.

  • Final State Sensitivity: an Obstruction to Predictability
    Volume 99A, number 9 PHYSICS LETTERS 26 December 1983 FINAL STATE SENSITIVITY: AN OBSTRUCTION TO PREDICTABILITY Celso GREBOGI 1 Steven W. McDONALD 1 , Edward OTT 1'2 and James A. YORKE 3 University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, USA Received 21 October 1983 It is shown that nonlinear systems with multiple attractors commonly require very accurate initial conditions for the reliable prediction of final states. A scaling exponent for the final-state-uncertain phase space volume dependence on un- certainty in initial conditions is defined and related to the fractai dimension of basin boundaries. Typical nonlinear dynamical systems may have more is the "basin bounctary". It the initial conaitions are than one possible time-asymptotic final state.

  • Chaos, Qualitative Reasoning, and the Predictability Proble M
    CHAOS, QUALITATIVE REASONING, AND THE PREDICTABILITY PROBLE M Bernardo A. Huberma n Xerox Palo Alto Research Center Palo Alto, CA . 94304 Peter Struss Siemens Corp. Corporate Research and Development Munich, West Germany Abstract Qualitative Physics attempts to predict the behavior of physical systems based on qualitativ e information . No one would consider using these methods to predict the dynamics of a tennis ball on th e frictionless edge of a knife . The reason: a strong instability caused by the edge which makes tw o arbitrarily small different initial conditions have very different outcomes . And yet, research on chaos suggests that sharp edges are not so unique : most nonlinear systems can be shown to be as unstable as the ball on the cutting edge. As a result, prediction is often impossible regardless of how simple the deterministic system is . We analyze the predictabilit y problem and its origins in some detail, show how it is generic, and discuss the impact of these result s on commonsense reasoning and Qualitative Physics . This done by presenting an example from the world of billiards and attempting to uncover the underlying assumptions that may lead physics , commonsense reasoning, and Qualitative Physics to generate different results . 2 1 Introduction Qualitative Physics (QP) aims at describing, explaining, and predicting the behavior of physical systems based only on qualitative information ([Bobrow 841 , [Hobbs-Moore 85]) . Predicting the future development of some part of the world give n knowledge of its current situation is also a central problem when attempting t o formalize the commonsense by some sort of non-monotonic logic (eg .

  • Counterexample to the Bohigas Conjecture for Transmission Through a One-Dimensional Lattice
    Counterexample to the Bohigas Conjecture for Transmission Through a One-Dimensional Lattice Ahmed A. Elkamshishy∗ Department of Physics and Astronomy, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 USA Chris H. Greeney Department of Physics and Astronomy, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 USA and Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 USA Resonances in particle transmission through a 1D finite lattice are studied in the presence of a finite number of impurities. Although this is a one-dimensional system that is classically integrable and has no chaos, studying the statistical properties of the spectrum such as the level spacing distribution and the spectral rigidity shows quantum chaos signatures. Using a dimensionless parameter that reflects the degree of state localization, we demonstrate how the transition from regularity to chaos is affected by state localization. The resonance positions are calculated using both the Wigner-Smith time-delay and a Siegert state method, which are in good agreement. Our results give evidence for the existence of quantum chaos in one dimension which is a counter-example to the Bohigas- Giannoni-Schmit conjecture. In 1984, Bohigas, Giannoni and Schmit stated the cel- BGS conjecture, and a second case where a signature of ebrated (BGS) conjecture[1] that describes the statisti- chaos arises in the quantum spectrum, which matches the cal properties of chaotic spectra. This conjecture draws GOE statistics for both the nearest-neighbor distribution a connection between quantum systems whose classical and the spectral rigidity. The chaotic behavior is shown analog is chaotic and random matrix theory (RMT). to depend on a dimensionless parameter that represents Classical chaos is a consequence of the non-linearity of the degree of state localization, thereby suggesting a con- the Newtonian equations of motion, while Schr¨odinger's nection between quantum chaos and the phenomenon of equation is linear and strictly speaking has no chaos.

  • Appendix a the Mathematics of Discontinuity
    Appendix A The Mathematics of Discontinuity On the plane of philosophy properly speaking, of metaphysics, catastrophe theory cannot, to be sure, supply any answer to the great problems which torment mankind. But it favors a dialectical, Heraclitean view of the universe, of a world which is the continual theatre of the battle between ‘logoi,’ between archetypes. René Thom (1975, “Catastrophe Theory: Its Present State and Future Perspectives,” p. 382) Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line. Benoit B. Mandelbrot (1983, The Fractal Geometry of Nature, p. 1) A.1 General Overview Somehow it is appropriate if ironic that sharply divergent opinions exist in the mathematical House of Discontinuity with respect to the appropriate method for analyzing discontinuous phenomena. Different methods include catastrophe theory, chaos theory, fractal geometry, synergetics theory, self-organizing criticality, spin glass theory, and emergent complexity. All have been applied to economics in one way or another. What these approaches have in common is more important than what divides them. They all see discontinuities as fundamental to the nature of nonlinear dynam- ical reality.1 In the broadest sense, discontinuity theory is bifurcation theory of which all of these are subsets. Ironically then we must consider the bifurcation of bifurcation theory into competing schools. After examining the historical origins of this bifurcation of bifurcation theory, we shall consider the possibility of a recon- ciliation and synthesis within the House of Discontinuity between these fractious factions.
