In this paper the chaotic properties of the TCP congestion avoidance mechanism are investigated. The analysis focuses on the origin of the complex behavior appearing in deterministic TCP/IP networks. From the traffic modeling point of view…

Chaotic dynamics essentially defines the global properties of gravitating systems, including, probably, the basics of morphology of galaxies. We use the Ricci curvature criterion to study the degree of relative chaos (exponential…

While classical chaos is defined via a system's sensitive dependence on its initial conditions (SDIC), this notion does not directly extend to quantum systems. Instead, recent works have established defining both quantum and classical chaos…

Numerical analysis indicates that there exists an unexpected new ordered chaos for the bounded one-dimensional multibarrier potential. For certain values of the number of barriers, repeated identical forms (periods) of the wavepackets…

The question of the stability of unstable states of dynamical systems that do not explicitly contain a small parameter, chaos and bifurcations in them has attracted attention ever since [1-14]. This is due to the fact that this problem…

In Physics, we have laws that determine the time evolution of a given physical system, depending on its parameters and its initial conditions. When we have multi-stable systems, many attractors coexist so that their basins of attraction…

We describe the boundary of chaos separating regions of parameter space with positive topological entropy from those with zero topological entropy for a class of piecewise smooth maps. This coincides with the boundary of positive Hausdorff…

A nonuniform system is considered consisting of two phases with different densities of particles. At each given time the distribution of the phases in space is chaotic: each phase filling a set of regions with random shapes and locations. A…

Chaos is a phenomenon that occurs in many aspects of contemporary science. In classical dynamics, chaos is defined as a hypersensitivity to initial conditions. The presence of chaos is often unwanted, as it introduces unpredictability,…

A fundamental premise of Hamiltonian chaos is the existence and properties of tori in phase space. More than a geometrical construct, these structures underlie the very dynamics of both classical and quantal systems. Although presented in…

We investigate instability phenomena for linear evolution equations within the framework of $C_0$--semigroups on infinite--dimensional spaces. We show that Devaney chaos, being formulated in purely topological terms, may depend on the…

We discuss the appearance of chaos in time-periodic perturbations of reversible vector fields in the plane. We use the normal forms of codimension~$1$ reversible vector fields and discuss the ways a time-dependent periodic forcing term of…

We provide a brief survey of quantum statistical characterisations of order, disorder and coherence in systems of many degrees of freedom. Here, order and coherence are described in terms of symmetry breakdown, while disorder is described…

We show that the output of systems with time-varying delay can exhibit a new kind of chaotic behavior characterized by laminar phases, which are periodically interrupted by irregular bursts. Within each laminar phase the output intensity…

We propose a novel approach to generate chaotic business cycles in a deterministic setting. Rather than producing chaos endogenously, we consider aggregate economic models with limit cycles and equilibriums, subject them to chaotic…

Chaos is a fundamental phenomenon in nonlinear dynamics, manifesting as irregular and unpredictable behavior across various physical systems. Among the diverse routes to chaos, intermittent chaos is a distinct transition pathway,…

In a topological dynamical system the complexity of an orbit is a measure of the amount of information (algorithmic information content) that is necessary to describe the orbit. This indicator is invariant up to topological conjugation. We…
