As the parameters of a piecewise-smooth system of ODEs are varied, a periodic orbit undergoes a bifurcation when it collides with a surface where the system is discontinuous. Under certain conditions this is a grazing-sliding bifurcation. Near grazing-sliding bifurcations, structurally stable dynamics are captured by piecewise-linear continuous maps. Recently it was shown that maps of this class can have infinitely many asymptotically stable periodic solutions of a simple type. Here this result is used to show that at a grazing-sliding bifurcation an asymptotically stable periodic orbit can bifurcate into infinitely many asymptotically stable periodic orbits. For an abstract ODE system the periodic orbits are continued numerically revealing subsequent bifurcations at which they are destroyed.

In this work, we investigate a piecewise-linear discontinuous scalar map defined on three partitions. This map is specifically constructed in such a way that it shows a recently discovered bifurcation scenario in its pure form. Owing to its structure on the one hand and the similarities to the nested period-adding scenario on the other hand, we denoted the new bifurcation scenario as nested period-incrementing bifurcation scenario. The new bifurcation scenario occurs in several physical and electronical systems but usually not isolated, which makes the description complicated. By isolating the scenario and using a suitable symbolic description for the asymptotically stable periodic orbits, we derive a set of rules in the space of symbolic sequences that explain the structure of the stable periodic domain in the parameter space entirely. Hence, the presented work is a necessary step for the understanding of the more complicated bifurcation scenarios mentioned above.

Let g be a continuous map from 8 to itself has a fixed point at (0,0), we prove that g has a twist periodic orbit if there is a rational rotation number.

AbstractLet f be a continuous map from the circle into itself of degree one, having a periodic orbit of rotation number p/q ≠ 0. If (p, q) = 1 then we prove that f has a twist periodic orbit of period q and rotation number p/q (i.e. a periodic orbit which behaves as a rotation of the circle with angle 2πp/q). Also, for this map we give the best lower bound of the topological entropy as a function of the rotation interval if one of the endpoints of the interval is an integer.

We establish an equivalence between infinitely many asymptotically stable periodic solutions and subsumed homoclinic connections for [Formula: see text]-dimensional piecewise-linear continuous maps. These features arise as a codimension-three phenomenon. The periodic solutions are single-round: they each involve one excursion away from a central saddle-type periodic solution. The homoclinic connection is subsumed in the sense that one branch of the unstable manifold of the saddle solution is contained entirely within its stable manifold. The results are proved by using exact expressions for the periodic solutions and components of the stable and unstable manifolds which are available because the maps are piecewise-linear. We also describe a practical approach for finding this phenomenon in the parameter space of a map and illustrate the results with the three-dimensional border-collision normal form.

In this paper, we investigate the bifurcation phenomena of a planar piecewise linear system. This piecewise linear system comprises two linear subsystems. The two linear subsystems have different types of dynamics. One subsystem has node or saddle dynamic and the other has focus dynamic. Some sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of periodic orbit are given by studying the properties of Poincaré maps. Our results show that two crossing periodic orbits can bifurcate from this piecewise linear system. Moreover, we establish some sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of sliding periodic orbit, crossing–sliding periodic orbit and sliding homoclinic orbit passing through a pseudo saddle and so on. We find that this piecewise system can appear multiply as two limit cycle bifurcation, buckling bifurcation, critical crossing cycle bifurcation, sliding homoclinic bifurcation, pseudo homoclinic bifurcation and so on. To our knowledge, sliding bifurcation phenomena are usually ignored when people study piecewise linear systems.

We examine crisis phenomena for a map that is piecewise linear and depend continuously of a parameter λ0. There are two straight lines Γ+ and Γ− along which the map is continuous but has two one-sided derivatives. As the parameter λ0 is varied, a periodic orbit Ƶp may collide with the borders Γ+ and Γ− to disappear. While in most reported crisis structures, a chaotic attractor is destroyed by the presence of (homoclinic or heteroclinic) tangencies between unstable periodic orbits, in this case the chaotic attractor is destroyed by the birth of an attracting periodic orbit Ƶp into that of attraction of the chaotic set. The birth of Ƶp is due to a border-collision phenomenon taking place at Γ+ ∪Γ−.

The memristor is supposed to be the fourth fundamental electronic element in addition to the well-known resistor, inductor and capacitor. Named as a contraction for memory resistor, its theoretical existence was postulated in 1971 by L. O. Chua, based on symmetrical and logical properties observed in some electronic circuits. On the other hand its physical realization was announced only recently in a paper published on May 2008 issue of Nature by a research team from Hewlett–Packard Company. In this work, we present the bifurcation analysis of two memristor oscillators mathematical models, given by three-dimensional five-parameter piecewise-linear and cubic systems of ordinary differential equations. We show that depending on the parameter values, the systems may present the coexistence of both infinitely many stable periodic orbits and stable equilibrium points. The periodic orbits arise from the change in local stability of equilibrium points on a line of equilibria, for a fixed set of parameter values. This phenomenon is a kind of Hopf bifurcation without parameters. We have numerical evidences that such stable periodic orbits form an invariant surface, which is an attractor of the systems solutions. The results obtained imply that even for a fixed set of parameters the two systems studied may or may not present oscillations, depending on the initial condition considered in the phase space. Moreover, when they exist, the amplitude of the oscillations also depends on the initial conditions.
