The orbit of the critical point of a nonlinear dynamical system defines a family of functions in the parameter space of the system. For unimodal maps a renormalization makes these functions indistinguishable over a wide range of parameter values. The universal representation of these functions leads directly to a number of interesting results: (1) the positions in the parameter space of the windows of order; (2) the sizes of the windows of order; (3) measures of distortion in the window structure; and (4) various generalized Feigenbaum numbers. We explicitly discuss the examples of the quadratic and sine maps.

This paper discusses the application of an inherently three-dimensional graphical representation tool, isosurfaces, as a means to interactively explore and visualize the attractors of a nonlinear dynamical system with a fifteen-dimensional parameter space. A program has been written which allows the scientist to interactively select and visualize three-dimensional sub-spaces of the fifteen-dimensional parameter space. The dynamical system used to illustrate these concepts is a discrete-time, nonlinear, three-nation Richardson model with economic constraints. This dynamical system, which models the shifting alliances of nations in an arms race, maps an initial point in the unit cube to another point in the unit cube after multiple iterations of the model functions. Using an isosurface function on the resulting volumetric data set, surfaces indicating the changing alliances of nations are generated and rendered.

AbstractIn this work we analyze the behavior of a nonlinear dynamical system using a probabilistic approach. We focus on the coexistence of solutions and we check how the changes in the parameters of excitation influence the dynamics of the system. For the demonstration we use the Duffing oscillator with the tuned mass absorber. We mention the numerous attractors present in such a system and describe how they were found with the method based on the basin stability concept.

The paper introduces a method for estimation and reduction of calendar effects from time series, which their fluctuations are governed by a nonlinear dynamical system and additive normal noise. Calendar effects can be considered deviations of the distribution(s) of particular group(s) of observations that have a common characteristic related to the calendar. The concept of this method is the following: since the calendar effects are not related to the dynamics of the time series, the accurate estimation and reduction will result a time series with a smaller amount of noise level (i.e. more accurate dynamics). The main tool of this method is the correlation integral, due to its inherit capability of modeling both the dynamics and the additive normal noise. Experimental results are presented on the Nasdaq Cmp. index.

Multivalued discrete tomography involves reconstructing images composed of three or more gray levels from projections. We propose a method based on the continuous-time optimization approach with a nonlinear dynamical system that effectively utilizes competition dynamics to solve the problem of multivalued discrete tomography. We perform theoretical analysis to understand how the system obtains the desired multivalued reconstructed image. Numerical experiments illustrate that the proposed method also works well when the number of pixels is comparatively high even if the exact labels are unknown.
