General fractional dynamics (GFDynamics) can be viewed as an interdisciplinary science, in which the nonlocal properties of linear and nonlinear dynamical systems are studied by using general fractional calculus, equations with general fractional integrals (GFI) and derivatives (GFD), or general nonlocal mappings with discrete time. GFDynamics implies research and obtaining results concerning the general form of nonlocality, which can be described by general-form operator kernels and not by its particular implementations and representations. In this paper, the concept of “general nonlocal mappings” is proposed; these are the exact solutions of equations with GFI and GFD at discrete points. In these mappings, the nonlocality is determined by the operator kernels that belong to the Sonin and Luchko sets of kernel pairs. These types of kernels are used in general fractional integrals and derivatives for the initial equations. Using general fractional calculus, we considered fractional systems with general nonlocality in time, which are described by equations with general fractional operators and periodic kicks. Equations with GFI and GFD of arbitrary order were also used to derive general nonlocal mappings. The exact solutions for these general fractional differential and integral equations with kicks were obtained. These exact solutions with discrete timepoints were used to derive general nonlocal mappings without approximations. Some examples of nonlocality in time are described.
