Mapping Chaos: Bifurcation Patterns and Shrimp Structures in the Ikeda Map

Chaotic Dynamics 2024-08-22 v1

Abstract

This study examines the dynamical properties of the Ikeda map, with a focus on bifurcations and chaotic behavior. We investigate how variations in dissipation parameters influence the system, uncovering shrimp-shaped structures that represent intricate transitions between regular and chaotic dynamics. Key findings include the analysis of period-doubling bifurcations and the onset of chaos. We utilize Lyapunov exponents to distinguish between stable and chaotic regions. These insights contribute to a deeper understanding of nonlinear and chaotic dynamics in optical systems.
