We show that it is possible to devise a large class of skew--product dynamical systems which have strange nonchaotic attractors (SNAs): the dynamics is asymptotically on fractal attractors and the largest Lyapunov exponent is nonpositive.…

Given a dynamical system, we study the so-called space of shift functions thus introducing another vision on bifurcations and chaos. As an application of the obtained results, we give a partial solution to an open problem formulated in…

We consider a large class of 2D area-preserving diffeomorphisms that are not uniformly hyperbolic but have strong hyperbolicity properties on large regions of their phase spaces. A prime example is the Standard map. Lower bounds for…

Lorenz attractors are important objects in the modern theory of chaos. The reason from one side is that they are met in various natural applications (fluid dynamics, mechanics, laser dynamics, etc.). At the same time, Lorenz attractors are…

We point out the joint occurrence of Pascal triangle patterns and power-law scaling in the standard logistic map, or more generally, in unimodal maps. It is known that these features are present in its two types of bifurcation cascades:…

In this paper, we study the classical two-predators-one-prey model. The classical model described by a system of 3 ordinary differential equations can be reduced to a one-dimensional bimodal map. We prove that this map has at most two…

Non-smooth saddle-node bifurcations give rise to minimal sets of interesting geometry built of so-called strange non-chaotic attractors. We show that certain families of quasiperiodically driven logistic differential equations undergo a…

Properties of spatially dependent relaxation oscillations near a SNIPER bifurcation are described. A SNIPER bifurcation creates a large-amplitude long-period periodic orbit via the annihilation of a pair of fixed points in a saddle-node…

We conduct numerical analysis of the 2-dimensional discrete-time gene expression model originally introduced by Andrecut and Kauffman (Phys. Lett. A 367: 281-287, 2007). In contrast to the previous studies, we analyze the dynamics with…

A non-autonomous flow system is introduced with an attractor of Plykin type that may serve as a base for elaboration of real systems and devices demonstrating the structurally stable chaotic dynamics. The starting point is a map on a…

We analyze the characteristics of the global attractor of a type of dissipative nonautonomous dynamical systems in terms of the Sacker and Sell spectrum of its linear part. The model gives rise to a pattern of nonautonomous Hopf bifurcation…

We study homoclinic bifurcations in an interval map associated with a saddle-focus of (2, 1)-type in $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetric systems. Our study of this map reveals the homoclinic structure of the saddle-focus, with a bifurcation unfolding…

Two one-parametric bifurcation problems for scalar nonautonomous ordinary differential equations are analyzed assuming the coercivity of the time-dependent function determining the equation and the concavity of its derivative with respect…

We investigate the bifurcations and basins of attraction in the Bogdanov map, a planar quadratic map which is conjugate to the H\'enon area-preserving map in its conservative limit. It undergoes a Hopf bifurcation as dissipation is added,…
