Multiple attractor bifurcations lead to simultaneous creation of multiple stable orbits. This may be damaging for practical systems as there is a fundamental uncertainty regarding which orbit the system will follow after a bifurcation. Such bifurcations are known to occur in piecewise smooth maps, which model many practical and engineering systems. So far the occurrence of such bifurcations have been investigated in the context of 2D piecewise linear maps. In this paper, we investigate multiple attractor bifurcations in a three-dimensional piecewise linear normal form map. We show the occurrence of different types of multiple attractor bifurcations in the system, like the simultaneous creation of a period-2 orbit, a period-3 orbit and an unstable chaotic orbit; a mode-locked torus, an ergodic torus and periodic orbits; a one-loop torus and a two-loop torus; a one-loop mode-locked torus and a two-loop mode-locked torus; a one-piece chaotic orbit and a 3-piece chaotic orbit, etc. As orbits lie on unstable manifolds of fixed points, the structure of unstable manifold plays an important role in understanding the coexistence of attractors. In this work, we show that interplay between 1D and 2D stable and unstable manifolds plays an important role in global bifurcations that can give rise to multiple coexisting attractors.

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.

AbstractIommi and Kiwi (J Stat Phys 135:535–546, 2009) showed that the Lyapunov spectrum of an expanding map need not be concave, and posed various problems concerning the possible number of inflection points. In this paper we answer a conjecture in Iommi and Kiwi (2009) by proving that the Lyapunov spectrum of a two branch piecewise linear map has at most two points of inflection. We then answer a question in Iommi and Kiwi (2009) by proving that there exist finite branch piecewise linear maps whose Lyapunov spectra have arbitrarily many points of inflection. This approach is used to exhibit a countable branch piecewise linear map whose Lyapunov spectrum has infinitely many points of inflection.

Recently, it was demonstrated that two chaotic dynamical systems can synchronize each other, leading to interesting applications as secure communications. We propose in this paper a special class of dynamical systems, noninvertible discrete piecewise linear, emphasizing on interesting advantages they present compared with continuous and differentiable nonlinear ones. The generic aspect of such systems, the simplicity of numerical implementation, and the robustness to mismatch of technological parameters make them good candidates. The classical concept of controllability in the control theory is presented and used in order to choose and predict the number of appropriate variables to be transmitted for synchronization. A necessary and sufficient condition of chaotic synchronization is established without computing numerical quantities, introducing a state affinity structure of chaotic systems which provides an a priori establishment of synchronization.

We provide some new estimates for the topological degree of a class of continuous and piecewise linear maps based on a classical integral computation formula. We provide applications to some nonlinear problems that exhibit a local [Formula: see text] structure.

For an integer [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be the partition of the unit interval [Formula: see text] into [Formula: see text] equal subintervals, and let [Formula: see text] be the class of piecewise linear maps on [Formula: see text] with constant slope [Formula: see text] on each element of [Formula: see text]. We investigate the effect on mixing properties when [Formula: see text] is composed with the interval exchange map given by a permutation [Formula: see text] interchanging the [Formula: see text] subintervals of [Formula: see text]. This extends the work in a previous paper [N. P. Byott, M. Holland and Y. Zhang, DCDS 33 (2013) 3365–3390], where we considered only the “stretch-and-fold” map [Formula: see text].
