Chaos Induced Transition
To study the coherent nature of chaos, two models are proposed. Model 1 is a simple nonlinear system [Formula: see text] and Model 2 is a linear harmonic oscillator [Formula: see text], which are driven by a chaotic force f(t). The chaotic force f(t) is defined by [Formula: see text] for nτ < t ≤ (n + 1)τ(n = 0, 1, 2, …), where yn+1 is a chaotic sequence of a map F(y; r) with the bifurcation parameter r: yn+1 = F(yn; r) (-0.5 ≤ yn ≤ 0.5) and ŷn = yn - < y0>. In Model 1 the relaxation process of this system and the τ- and r-dependence of the stationary distribution of x are discussed. It is shown that the small change of the bifurcation parameter r causes the drastic change of the stationary distribution. In Model 2, resonance phenomena are investigated near the period 3 window of the logistic map, in particular, in the intermittent chaos region and the period doubling region. The theoretical results are shown to be in a good agreement with numerical ones, which have been done for the logistic map as F(y; r).
