We study the chaotic dynamics of a near-integrable Hamiltonian Ablowitz–Ladik lattice, which is N + 2-dimensional if N is even (N + 1, if N is odd) and possesses, for all N, a circle of unstable equilibria at ε = 0, whose homoclinic orbits are shown to persist for ε ≠ 0 on whiskered tori. The persistence of homoclinic orbits is established through Mel'nikov conditions, directly from the Hamiltonian structure of the equations. Numerical experiments which combine space portraits and Lyapunov exponents are performed for the perturbed Ablowitz–Ladik lattice and large scale chaotic behavior is observed in the vicinity of the circle of unstable equilibria in the ε = 0 case. We conjecture that this large scale chaos is due to the occurrence of saddle-center type fixed points in a perturbed 1 d.o.f Hamiltonian to which the original system can be reduced for all N. As ε > 0 increases, the transient character of this chaotic behavior becomes apparent as the positive Lyapunov exponents steadily increase and the orbits escape to infinity.

The intention of this research is to investigate the aspect of non-linearity and chaotic behavior of the Cyprus stock market. For this purpose, we use non-linearity and chaos theory. We perform BDS, Hinich-Bispectral tests and compute Lyapunov exponent of the Cyprus General index. The results show that existence of non-linear dependence and chaotic features as the maximum Lyapunov exponent was found to be positive. This study is important because chaos and efficient market hypothesis are mutually exclusive aspects. The efficient market hypothesis which requires returns to be independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) cannot be accepted.

This chapter presents the history of the development of the concept of phase space. Phase space is the central visualization tool used today to study complex systems. The chapter describes the origins of phase space with the work of Joseph Liouville and Carl Jacobi that was later refined by Ludwig Boltzmann and Rudolf Clausius in their attempts to define and explain the subtle concept of entropy. The turning point in the history of phase space was when Henri Poincaré used phase space to solve the three-body problem, uncovering chaotic behavior in his quest to answer questions on the stability of the solar system. Phase space was established as the central paradigm of statistical mechanics by JW Gibbs and Paul Ehrenfest.

The Lorenz system has attracted increasing attention on the issue of its simplification in order to produce the simplest three-dimensional chaotic systems suitable for secure information processing. Meanwhile, Sprott’s work on elegant chaos has revealed a set of 19 chaotic systems all described by simple algebraic equations. This paper presents a new piecewise-linear chaotic system emerging from the simplification of the Lorenz system combined with the elegance of Sprott systems. Unlike the majority, the new system is a non-Shilnikov chaotic system with two nonhyperbolic equilibria. It is multiplier-free, variable-boostable and exclusively based on absolute value and signum nonlinearities. The use of familiar tools such as Lyapunov exponents spectra, bifurcation diagrams, frequency power spectra as well as Poincaré map help to demonstrate its chaotic behavior. The novel system exhibits inverse period doubling bifurcations and multistability. It has only five terms, one bifurcation parameter and a total amplitude controller. These features allow a simple and low cost electronic implementation. The adaptive synchronization of the novel system is investigated and the corresponding electronic circuit is presented to confirm its feasibility.

The dynamic behavior of an autocatalytic reaction with a product inhibition term is studied in a flow system. A unique steady state exists in the continuous tank reactor. Linear stability analysis predicts either a stable node, a focus or an unstable saddle-focus. Sustained oscillations around the unstable focus can occur for high values of the Damköhler number (Da). In the distributed system, travelling, standing or complex oscillatory waves are detected. For a low value of Da, travelling waves with a pseudo-constant pattern are observed. With an intermediate value of Da, single or multiple standing waves are obtained. The temporal behavior indicates also the appearance of retriggering or echo waves. For a high value of Da, both single peak and complex multipeak oscillations are found. In the cell model, both regular oscillations near the inlet and chaotic behavior downstream are observed. In the dispersion model, higher Peclet numbers (Pe) eliminate the oscillations. The spatial profile shows a train of pulsating waves for the discrete model and a single pulsating or solitary wave for the continuous model.
