In this paper, a mixed duopoly dynamic model with bounded rationality is built, where a public-private joint venture and a private enterprise produce homogeneous products and compete in the same market. The purpose of this research is to study the stability and the multistability of the established model. The local stability of all the equilibrium points is discussed by using Jury condition, and the stability region of the Nash equilibrium point has been given. A special fractal structure called “hub of periodicity” has been found in the two-parameter space by numerical simulation. In addition, the phenomena of multistability (also called coexistence of multiple attractors) are also studied using basins of attraction and 1-D bifurcation diagrams with adiabatic initial conditions. We find that there are two different coexistences of multiple attractors. And, the fractal structure of the attracting basin is also analyzed, and the formation mechanisms of “holes” and “contact” bifurcation have been revealed. At last, the long-term profits of the enterprises are studied. We find that some enterprises can even make more profits under a chaotic circumstance.

The famous Lorenz system is studied and analyzed for a particular set of parameters originally proposed by Lorenz. With those parameters, the system has a single globally attracting strange attractor, meaning that almost all initial conditions in its 3D state space approach the attractor as time advances. However, with a slight change in one of the parameters, the chaotic attractor coexists with a symmetric pair of stable equilibrium points, and the resulting tri-stable system has three intertwined basins of attraction. The advent of 3D printers now makes it possible to visualize the topology of such basins of attraction as the results presented here illustrate.

In this paper, a new fractional-order discrete noninvertible map of cubic type is presented. Firstly, the stability of the equilibrium points for the map is examined. Secondly, the dynamics of the map with two different initial conditions is studied by numerical simulation when a parameter or a derivative order is varied. A series of attractors are displayed in various forms of periodic and chaotic ones. Furthermore, bifurcations with the simultaneous variation of both a parameter and the order are also analyzed in the three-dimensional space. Interior crises are found in the map as a parameter or an order varies. Thirdly, based on the stability theory of fractional-order discrete maps, a stabilization controller is proposed to control the chaos of the map and the asymptotic convergence of the state variables is determined. Finally, the synchronization between the proposed map and a fractional-order discrete Loren map is investigated. Numerical simulations are used to verify the effectiveness of the designed synchronization controllers.

Abstract Noise-induced motions are a significant source of uncertainty in the response of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS). This is particularly the case for electrostatic MEMS where electrical and mechanical sources contribute to noise and can result in sudden and drastic loss of stability. This paper investigates the effects of noise processes on the stability of electrostatic MEMS via a lumped-mass model that accounts for uncertainty in mass, mechanical restoring force, bias voltage, and AC voltage amplitude. We evaluated the stationary probability density function (PDF) of the resonator response and its basins of attraction in the presence noise and compared them to that those obtained under deterministic excitations only. We found that the presence of noise was most significant in the vicinity of resonance. Even low noise intensity levels caused stochastic jumps between co-existing orbits away from bifurcation points. Moderate noise intensity levels were found to destroy the basins of attraction of the larger orbits. Higher noise intensity levels were found to destroy the basins of attraction of smaller orbits, dominate the dynamic response, and occasionally lead to pull-in. The probabilities of pull-in of the resonator under different noise intensity level are calculated, which are sensitive to the initial conditions.

We perform a systematic analysis of a system consisting of a novel jerk circuit obtained by replacing the single semiconductor diode of the original jerk circuit described in [Sprott, 2011a] with a pair of semiconductor diodes connected in antiparallel. The model is described by a continuous time three-dimensional autonomous system with hyperbolic sine nonlinearity, and may be viewed as a control system with nonlinear velocity feedback. The stability of the (unique) fixed point, the local bifurcations, and the discrete symmetries of the model equations are discussed. The complex behavior of the system is categorized in terms of its parameters by using bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents, time series, Poincaré sections, and basins of attraction. Antimonotonicity, period doubling bifurcation, symmetry restoring crises, chaos, and coexisting bifurcations are reported. More interestingly, one of the key contributions of this work is the finding of various regions in the parameters’ space in which the proposed (“elegant”) jerk circuit experiences the unusual phenomenon of multiple competing attractors (i.e. coexistence of four disconnected periodic and chaotic attractors). The basins of attraction of various coexisting attractors display complexity (i.e. fractal basins boundaries), thus suggesting possible jumps between coexisting attractors in experiment. Results of theoretical analyses are perfectly traced by laboratory experimental measurements. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, the jerk circuit/system introduced in this work represents the simplest electrical circuit (only a quadruple op amplifier chip without any analog multiplier chip) reported to date capable of four disconnected periodic and chaotic attractors for the same parameters setting.

We study numerically the problem of four bodies, three of which are finite, moving in circles around their center of mass fixed at the origin of the coordinate system, according to the solution of Lagrange where they are always at the vertices of an equilateral triangle, while the fourth is infinitesimal. The fourth body does not affect the motion of the three bodies (primaries). The allowed regions of motion as determined by the zero-velocity surface and corresponding equipotential curves as well as the positions of the equilibrium points are given. The existence and the number of collinear and noncollinear equilibrium points of the problem depend on the mass parameters of the primaries. For three unequal masses, collinear equilibrium solutions do not exist. Critical masses associated with the existence and the number of equilibrium points, are given. The stability of the relative equilibrium solutions in all cases is also studied. The regions of the basins of attraction for the equilibrium points of the present dynamical model for some values of the mass parameters are illustrated.

We report coexisting multiple attractors and birth of chaos via period-bubbling cascades in a model of geomagnetic field reversals. The model system comprises a set of three coupled first-order quadratic nonlinear equations with three control parameters. Up to seven kinds of multistable attractors, viz. fixed point-periodic, fixed point-chaotic, periodic–periodic, periodic-chaotic, chaotic–chaotic, fixed point-periodic–periodic, fixed point-periodic-chaotic are obtained depending on the initial conditions for critical parameter sets. Antimonotonicity is a striking characteristic feature of nonlinear systems through which a full Feigenbaum tree corresponding to creation and annihilation of period-doubling cascades is developed. By analyzing the two-parameters dependent dynamics of the system, a critical biparameter zone is identified, where antimonotonicity comes into existence. The complex dynamical behaviors of the system are explored using phase portraits, bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents, isoperiodic diagram, and basins of attraction.

This paper presents a modified chaotic system under the fractional operator with singularity. The aim of the present subject will be to focus on the influence of the new model’s parameters and its fractional order using the bifurcation diagrams and the Lyapunov exponents. The new fractional model will generate chaotic behaviors. The Lyapunov exponents’ theories in fractional context will be used for the characterization of the chaotic behaviors. In a fractional context, the phase portraits will be obtained with a predictor-corrector numerical scheme method. The details of the numerical scheme will be presented in this paper. The numerical scheme will be used to analyze all the properties addressed in this present paper. The Matignon criterion will also play a fundamental role in the local stability of the presented model’s equilibrium points. We will find a threshold under which the stability will be removed and the chaotic and hyperchaotic behaviors will be generated. An adaptative control will be proposed to correct the instability of the equilibrium points of the model. Sensitive to the initial conditions, we will analyze the influence of the initial conditions on our fractional chaotic system. The coexisting attractors will also be provided for illustrations of the influence of the initial conditions.

Memristor, as a typical nonlinear element, is able to produce chaotic signals in chaotic systems easily. Chaotic systems have potential applications in secure communications, information encryption, and other fields. Therefore, it is of importance to generate abundant dynamic behaviors in a single chaotic system. In this paper, a novel memristor-based chaotic system without equilibrium points is proposed. One of the essential features is the absence of symmetry in this system, which increases the complexity of the new system. Then, the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of the system are analyzed in terms of chaos diagrams, bifurcation diagrams, Poincaré maps, Lyapunov exponent spectra, the sum of Lyapunov exponents, phase portraits, 0–1 test, recurrence analysis and instantaneous phase. The results of the sum of Lyapunov exponents show that the given system is a quasi-Hamiltonian system with certain initial conditions (IC) and parameters. Next, other critical phenomena, such as hidden multi-scroll attractors, abundant coexistence characteristics, are found characterized through basins of attraction and others. Especially, it reveals some rare phenomena in other systems that multiple hidden hyperchaotic attractors coexist. Finally, the circuit implementation based on Micro Control Unit (MCU) confirms theoretical analysis and the numerical simulation.

We investigate the basins of attraction of equilibrium points and minimal period-two solutions of the difference equation of the formxn+1=xn-12/(axn2+bxnxn-1+cxn-12),n=0,1,2,…,where the parameters  a,  b, and  c  are positive numbers and the initial conditionsx-1andx0are arbitrary nonnegative numbers. The unique feature of this equation is the coexistence of an equilibrium solution and the minimal period-two solution both of which are locally asymptotically stable.

This paper analyzes the chaotic dynamics of a quantum Cournot duopoly game with bounded rational players by applying quantum game theory. We investigate the impact of quantum entanglement on the stability of the quantum Nash equilibrium points and chaotic dynamics behaviors of the system. The result shows that the stability region decreases with the quantum entanglement increasing. The adjustment speeds of bounded rational players can lead to chaotic behaviors, and quantum entanglement accelerates the bifurcation and chaos of the system. Numerical simulations demonstrate the chaotic features via stability region, bifurcation, largest Lyapunov exponent, strange attractors, sensitivity to initial conditions and fractal dimensions.
