We study the origin of homoclinic chaos in the classical 3D model proposed by O. R\"ossler in 1976. Of our particular interest are the convoluted bifurcations of the Shilnikov saddle-foci and how their synergy determines the global…
We present here the special issue of Physica D in honor of Boris Chirikov. It is based on the proceedings of the Conference "Classical Chaos and its Quantum Manifestations" held in Toulouse in July 1998. This electronic version contains the…
Nonlinear science has evolved significantly over the 35 years since the launch of the journal Chaos. This Focus Issue, dedicated to the 80th Birthday of its founding editor-in-chief, David K. Campbell, brings together a selection of…
This study examines second-order dynamical systems incorporating Tikhonov regularization. It focuses on how nonlinearities induce bifurcations and chaotic dynamics. By using Lyapunov functions, bifurcation theory, and numerical simulations,…
We give an analytic proof of the existence of Shilnikov chaos in complex Ginzburg-Landau equation subject to a large third-order dispersion perturbation.
One of the major breakthroughs in science of the last (20th) century was building a bridge between the worlds of stochastic (random) systems and deterministic (dynamical) systems. It was started by the celebrated 1958 paper by…
We describe some highlights in the theory of chaos, that started with Poincare (1899). Generic systems have both ordered and chaotic domains. Chaos appears mainly near un- stable periodic orbits. Large chaotic domains are due to resonance…
We give a qualitative description of two main routes to chaos in three-dimensional maps. We discuss Shilnikov scenario of transition to spiral chaos and a scenario of transition to discrete Lorenz-like and figure-eight strange attractors.…
This paper is dedicated to clarifying and introducing the correct application of Melnikov method in fractional dynamics. Attention to the complex dynamics of hyperbolic orbits and to fractional calculus can be, respectively, traced back to…
The scope of this teaching package is to make a brief introduction to some notions and properties of chaotic systems. We first make a brief introduction to chaos in general and then we show some important properties of chaotic systems using…
A method of controlling Shil'nikov's type chaos using windows that appear in the 1 dimensional bifurcation diagram when perturbations are applied, and using existence of stable homoclinic orbits near the unstable one is presented and…
This article is dedicated to the centenary of the birth of Aleksandr D. Alexandrov (1912-1999). His functional-analytical approach to the solving of the Minkowski problem is examined and applied to the extremal problems of isoperimetric…
Chaos is an active research subject in the fields of science in recent years. it is a complex and an erratic behavior that is possible in very simple systems. in the present day, the chaotic behavior can be observed in experiments. Many…
We argue that a discrete Shilnikov attractor exists in the system of five identical globally coupled phase oscillators with biharmonic coupling. We explain the scenario that leads to birth of this kind of attractor and numerically…
In this expository and resources chapter we review selected aspects of the mathematics of dynamical systems, stability, and chaos, within a historical framework that draws together two threads of its early development: celestial mechanics…
The Chirikov resonance-overlap criterion predicts the onset of global chaos if nonlinear resonances overlap in energy, which is conventionally assumed to require a non-small magnitude of perturbation. We show that, for a time-periodic…
This paper investigates the origin and onset of chaos in a mathematical model of an individual neuron, arising from the intricate interaction between 3D fast and 2D slow dynamics governing its intrinsic currents. Central to the chaotic…
We consider the classical and quantum properties of the "Chirikov typical map", proposed by Boris Chirikov in 1969. This map is obtained from the well known Chirikov standard map by introducing a finite number $T$ of random phase shift…
The Takens-Bogdanov bifurcation is a codimension two bifurcation that provides a key to the presence of complex dynamics in many systems of physical interest. When the system is translation-invariant in one spatial dimension with no…
Nonlinear dynamics (``chaos theory'') and quantum mechanics are two of the scientific triumphs of the 20th century. The former lies at the heart of the modern interdisciplinary approach to science, whereas the latter has revolutionized…
