Noncommutative space and the low-energy physics of quasicrystals

2008

We prove that the effective low-energy, nonlinear Schroedinger equation for a particle in the presence of a quasiperiodic potential is the potential-free, nonlinear Schroedinger equation on noncommutative space. Thus quasiperiodicity of the potential can be traded for space noncommutativity when describing the envelope wave of the initial quasiperiodic wave.

Group theory aspects of chaotic strings

2014

Chaotic strings are a special type of non-hyperbolic coupled map lattices, exhibiting a rich structure of complex dynamical phenomena with a surprising correspondence to physical contents. Chaotic strings are generated by the Chebyshev maps T2() and T3(). In this paper we connect the Chebyshev maps via the Galois theory to the cyclic groups Z2 and Z3 and give some ideas how this fundamental connection might lead to the emergence of the familiar Lie group structure of particle physics and, finally, even to the emergence of space-time. The Z3-graded cubic and ternary algebras presented here have been introduced by R. Kerner in 1991 and then developed and elaborated in collaboration with many …

Modified post-bifurcation dynamics and routes to chaos from double-Hopf bifurcations in a hyperchaotic system

2012

In order to understand the onset of hyperchaotic behavior recently observed in many systems, we study bifurcations in the modified Chen system leading from simple dynamics into chaotic regimes. In particular, we demonstrate that the existence of only one fixed point of the system in all regions of parameter space implies that this simple point attractor may only be destabilized via a Hopf or double Hopf bifurcation as system parameters are varied. Saddle-node, transcritical and pitchfork bifurcations are precluded. The normal form immediately following double Hopf bifurcations is constructed analytically by the method of multiple scales. Analysis of this generalized double Hopf normal form …

Post-Double Hopf Bifurcation Dynamics and Adaptive Synchronization of a Hyperchaotic System

2012

In this paper a four-dimensional hyperchaotic system with only one equilibrium is considered and its double Hopf bifurcations are investigated. The general post-bifurcation and stability analysis are carried out using the normal form of the system obtained via the method of multiple scales. The dynamics of the orbits predicted through the normal form comprises possible regimes of periodic solutions, two-period tori, and three-period tori in parameter space. Moreover, we show how the hyperchaotic synchronization of this system can be realized via an adaptive control scheme. Numerical simulations are included to show the effectiveness of the designed control.

Horizontal visibility graphs: exact results for random time series

2009

The visibility algorithm has been recently introduced as a mapping between time series and complex networks. This procedure allows us to apply methods of complex network theory for characterizing time series. In this work we present the horizontal visibility algorithm, a geometrically simpler and analytically solvable version of our former algorithm, focusing on the mapping of random series (series of independent identically distributed random variables). After presenting some properties of the algorithm, we present exact results on the topological properties of graphs associated with random series, namely, the degree distribution, the clustering coefficient, and the mean path length. We sh…

A New Wavelet Tool to Quantify Non-Periodicity of Non-Stationary Economic Time Series

2020

We introduce a new wavelet tool, the windowed scale index, to study the degree of non-periodicity of time series. The windowed scale index is based on some recently defined tools, such as the windowed scalogram and the scale index. This novel measure is appropriate for non-stationary time series whose characteristics change over time and, therefore, it can be applied to a wide variety of disciplines. Furthermore, we revise the concept of the scale index and pose a theoretical problem: it is known that if the scale index of a function is not zero then it is non-periodic, but if the scale index of a function is zero, then it is not proved that it has to be periodic. This problem is solved for…

Spatially chaotic configurations and functional equations with rescaling

1996

The functional equation is associated with the appearance of spatially chaotic structures in amorphous (glassy) materials. Continuous compactly supported solutions of the above equation are of special interest. We shall show that there are no such solutions for , whereas such a solution exists for almost all . The words `for almost all q' in the previous sentence cannot be omitted. There are exceptional values of q in the interval for which there are no integrable solutions. For example, , which is the reciprocal of the `golden ratio' is such an exceptional value. More generally, if is any Pisot - Vijayaraghavan number, or any Salem number, then is an exceptional value.

Approximate renormalization-group transformation for Hamiltonian systems with three degrees of freedom

1999

We construct an approximate renormalization transformation that combines Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM)and renormalization-group techniques, to analyze instabilities in Hamiltonian systems with three degrees of freedom. This scheme is implemented both for isoenergetically nondegenerate and for degenerate Hamiltonians. For the spiral mean frequency vector, we find numerically that the iterations of the transformation on nondegenerate Hamiltonians tend to degenerate ones on the critical surface. As a consequence, isoenergetically degenerate and nondegenerate Hamiltonians belong to the same universality class, and thus the corresponding critical invariant tori have the same type of scaling prop…

Génétique des textes et système chaotique

2016

Textual genetics and chaotic system Although we share Louis Hay's idea that it is impossible to homologate and systematize the operations which can be observed in manuscripts, it is however possible to interpret whatever creation process in terms of the passage from entropy to order. The possibility of an analogy between text and chaotic system had been advanced by Noëlle Batt according to whom each work actually satisfies the principles of the chaotic system. It is starting from such principles that we will try to show the analogy between chaotic system and textual genetics: 1. The fact that we are dealing with an evolving system (with variables and permanent features) endowed with a tempo…

Chaotic dynamics around cometary nuclei

2017

We apply a generalized Kepler map theory to describe the qualitative chaotic dynamics around cometary nuclei, based on accessible observational data for five comets whose nuclei are well-documented to resemble dumb-bells. The sizes of chaotic zones around the nuclei and the Lyapunov times of the motion inside these zones are estimated. In the case of Comet 1P/Halley, the circumnuclear chaotic zone seems to engulf an essential part of the Hill sphere, at least for orbits of moderate to high eccentricity.
