Chaotic attractors containing Shilnikov's saddle-focus homoclinic orbits have been observed in many physical systems. Past and current researches of this type of Shilnikov homoclinic phenomena have focused on the orbit and nearby structures only. In this paper we will look at the role such orbits play in a type of attractor, which arises from one-dimensional return maps at the singular limits of some singularly perturbed systems. Results on symbolic dynamics, natural measures, and Lyapunov exponents are obtained for a sequence of a one-parameter caricature family of such attractors.

Wolfram divided the 256 elementary cellular automata rules informally into four classes using dynamical concepts like periodicity, stability, and chaos. Rule 24, which is Bernoulliστ-shift rule and is member of Wolfram’s class II, is said to be simple as periodic before. Therefore, it is worthwhile studying dynamical behaviors of four rules, whether they possess chaotic attractors or not. In this paper, the complex dynamical behaviors of rule 24 of one-dimensional cellular automata are investigated from the viewpoint of symbolic dynamics. We find that rule 24 is chaotic in the sense of both Li-Yorke and Devaney on its attractor. Furthermore, we prove that four rules of global equivalenceε52of cellular automata are topologically conjugate. Then, we use diagrams to explain the attractor of rule 24, where characteristic function is used to describe the fact that all points fall into Bernoulli-shift map after two iterations under rule 24.

Dynamical systems modeling tumor growth have been investigated to determine the dynamics between tumor and healthy cells. Recent theoretical investigations indicate that these interactions may lead to different dynamical outcomes, in particular to homoclinic chaos. In the present study, we analyze both topological and dynamical properties of a recently characterized chaotic attractor governing the dynamics of tumor cells interacting with healthy tissue cells and effector cells of the immune system. By using the theory of symbolic dynamics, we first characterize the topological entropy and the parameter space ordering of kneading sequences from one-dimensional iterated maps identified in the dynamics, focusing on the effects of inactivation interactions between both effector and tumor cells. The previous analyses are complemented with the computation of the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents, the fractal dimension and the predictability of the chaotic attractors. Our results show that the inactivation rate of effector cells by the tumor cells has an important effect on the dynamics of the system. The increase of effector cells inactivation involves an inverse Feigenbaum (i.e. period-halving bifurcation) scenario, which results in the stabilization of the dynamics and in an increase of dynamics predictability. Our analyses also reveal that, at low inactivation rates of effector cells, tumor cells undergo strong, chaotic fluctuations, with the dynamics being highly unpredictable. Our findings are discussed in the context of tumor cells potential viability.

Wolfram divided the 256 elementary cellular automata rules informally into four classes using dynamical concepts like periodicity, stability, and chaos. Rule 14, which is Bernoulliστ-shift rule and is a member of Wolfram’s class II, is said to be simple as periodic before. Therefore, it is worthwhile studying dynamical behaviors of rule 14, whether it possesses chaotic attractors or not. In this paper, the complex dynamical behaviors of rule 14 of one-dimensional cellular automata are investigated from the viewpoint of symbolic dynamics. We find that rule 14 is chaotic in the sense of both Li-Yorke and Devaney on its attractor. Then, we prove that there exist fixed points in rule 14. Finally, we use diagrams to explain the attractor of rule 14, where characteristic function is used to describe that all points fall into Bernoulli-shift map after two iterations under rule 14.

Nanosystems are devices that are in the size range of a billionth of a meter (1 x 10-9) and therefore are built necessarily from individual atoms. The one-dimensional nanosystems or linear nanosystems cover all the nanosized systems which possess one dimension that exceeds the other two dimensions, i.e. extension over one dimension is predominant over the other two dimensions. Here only two of the dimensions have to be on the nanoscale (less than 100 nanometers). In this paper we consider the structural relationship between a linear nanosystem and its atoms acting as components of the nanosystem. Using such information, we then assess the nanosystem's limiting reliability which is, of course, probabilistic in nature. We consider the linear nanosystem at a fixed moment of time, say the present moment, and we assume that the present state of the linear nanosystem depends only on the present states of its atoms.

The stable and unstable invariant manifolds associated with Lyapunov orbits about the libration point L1between the primaries in the planar circular restricted three-body problem with equal masses are considered. The behavior of the intersections of these invariant manifolds for values of the energy between that of L1and the other collinear libration points L2, L3is studied using symbolic dynamics. Homoclinic orbits are classified according to the number of turns about the primaries.

We show that the numbers generated by the symbolic dynamics of Feigenbaum attractors are transcendental. Due to the asymmetry of the chaotic attractors of unimodal maps around the maximum in the general case, a standard conjecture, that the occurrence of chaos is related to the transcendence of the number defined by the corresponding symbolic dynamics is reassessed and formulated in a quantitative manner. It is concluded that transcendence may provide an appropriate measure of complexity.

We consider all of the transmission eigenvalues for one-dimensional media. We give some conditions under which complex eigenvalues exist. In the case when the index of refraction is constant, it is shown that all the transmission eigenvalues are real if and only if the index of refraction is an odd number or reciprocal of an odd number.

The ground-state properties of polarons in a one-dimensional chain is studied analytically within the modified Lang–Firsov (MLF) transformation using various phonon-averaging techniques. The object of the work is to examine how the analytical approaches may be improved to give rise to the real picture of polaronic properties as predicted by extensive numerical studies. The results are compared with those obtained from numerical analyses using the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) and other variational techniques. It is observed that our results agree well with the numerical results particularly in the low and intermediate range of phonon coupling.

The ground state (GS) of interacting particles on a disordered one-dimensional (1D) host-lattice is studied by a new numerical method. It is shown that if the concentration of particles is small, then even a weak disorder of the host-lattice breaks the long-range order of Generalized Wigner Crystal (GWC), replacing it by the sequence of blocks (domains) of particles with random lengths. The mean domains length as a function of the host-lattice disorder parameter is also found. It is shown that the domain structure can be detected by a weak random field, whose form is similar to that of the ground state but has fluctuating domain walls positions. This is because the generalized magnetization corresponding to the field has a sufficiently sharp peak as a function of the amplitude of fluctuations for small amplitudes.

In this paper, we systematically research periodic orbits of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation (KSe). In order to overcome the difficulties in the establishment of one-dimensional symbolic dynamics in the nonlinear system, two basic periodic orbits can be used as basic building blocks to initialize cycle searching, and we use the variational method to numerically determine all the periodic orbits under parameter [Formula: see text] = 0.02991. The symbolic dynamics based on trajectory topology are very successful for classifying all short periodic orbits in the KSe. The current research can be conveniently adapted to the identification and classification of periodic orbits in other chaotic systems.
