Generating chaotic attractors from nonlinear dynamical systems is quite important because of their applicability in sciences and engineering. This paper considers a class of 2-D mappings displaying fully bounded chaotic attractors for all bifurcation parameters. It describes in detail the dynamical behavior of this map, along with some other dynamical phenomena. Also presented are some phase portraits and some dynamical properties of the given simple family of 2-D discrete mappings.

One of the interesting complex behaviors in many cell membranes is bursting, in which a rapid oscillatory state alternates with phases of relative quiescence. Although there is an elegant interpretation of many experimental results in terms of nonlinear dynamical systems, the dynamics of bursting models is not completely described. In the present paper, we study the dynamical behavior of two specific three-variable models from the literature that replicate chaotic bursting. With results from symbolic dynamics, we characterize the topological entropy of one-dimensional maps that describe the salient dynamics on the attractors. The analysis of the variation of this important numerical invariant with the parameters of the systems allows us to quantify the complexity of the phenomenon and to distinguish different chaotic scenarios. This work provides an example of how our understanding of physiological models can be enhanced by the theory of dynamical systems.

Chaotic phenomena and presence of complexity in various nonlinear dynamical systems extensively discussed in the context of recent researches. Discrete as well as continuous dynamical systems both considered here. Visualization of regularity and chaotic motion presented through bifurcation diagrams by varying a parameter of the system while keeping other parameters constant. In the processes, some perfect indicator of regularity and chaos discussed with appropriate examples. Measure of chaos in terms of Lyapunov exponents and that of complexity as increase in topological entropies discussed. The methodology to calculate these explained in details with exciting examples. Regular and chaotic attractors emerging during the study are drawn and analyzed. Correlation dimension, which provides the dimensionality of a chaotic attractor discussed in detail and calculated for different systems. Results obtained presented through graphics and in tabular form. Two techniques of chaos control, pulsive feedback control and asymptotic stability analysis, discussed and applied to control chaotic motion for certain cases. Finally, a brief discussion held for the concluded investigation.

This paper investigates the nonexistence of a specific kind of periodic solutions in a class of nonlinear dynamical systems with cylindrical phase space. Those types of systems can be viewed as an interconnection of several simpler subsystems with the interconnecting structure specified by a permutation matrix. Frequency-domain conditions as well as linear matrix inequalities conditions for nonexistence of limit cycles of the second kind are established. The main results also define the frequency range on which cycles of the second kind of the system cannot exist. Based on this LMI approach, an estimate of the frequency of cycles of the second kind can be explicitly computed by solving a generalized eigenvalue minimization problem. Numerical results demonstrate the applicability and validity of the proposed method and show the effect of nonlinear interconnections on dynamical behavior of entire interconnected systems.

From the perspective of mathematical epidemiology, COVID-19 epidemics emerge due to instabilities in epidemiological systems. It is shown that the COVID-19 outbreaks follow highly specified paths in epidemiological state spaces. These paths are described by phase portraits that can be readily computed from epidemiological models defined in terms of nonlinear dynamical systems. The paths are predicted by order parameters and amplitude equations that are well known in nonlinear physics and synergetics to exist at instability points. The approach is illustrated for SIR, SEIR and SEIAR models and epidemic outbreaks in China, Italy and West Africa. Identifying such COVID-19 order parameters may help in forecasting COVID-19 epidemics and predicting the impacts of intervention measures.

This article explores the possibility of using chaotic attractors to control sound processing with software instruments in live electroacoustic composition. The practice-led investigation involves the Attractors Library, a collection of Max/MSP externals based on iterative mathematical equations representing nonlinear dynamical systems; Attractors Player, a Max/MSP patch that controls the attractors' performance and live processing; and the two compositions based on the software: Strange Attractions for flute, clarinet, horn, and live electronics, and Sabda Vidya No. 2 for flute, tenor saxophone, and live electronics. In the article I discuss some specific attractors' characteristics and their use in interactive composition, relying on the experience from the performances of these two compositions. The idea is to highlight the experience with these nonlinear systems and to encourage other composers to use them in their own works.
