Symmetry in Chaotic Systems and Circuits

Symmetry can play an important role in the field of nonlinear systems and especially in the design of nonlinear circuits that produce chaos. Therefore, this Special Issue, titled “Symmetry in Chaotic Systems and Circuits”, presents the latest scientific advances in nonlinear chaotic systems and circuits that introduce various kinds of symmetries. Applications of chaotic systems and circuits with symmetries, or with a deliberate lack of symmetry, are also presented in this Special Issue. The volume contains 14 published papers from authors around the world. This reflects the high impact of this Special Issue

Fuzzy synchronization of chaotic systems with hidden attractors

Chaotic systems are hard to synchronize, and no general solution exists. The presence of hidden attractors makes finding a solution particularly elusive. Successful synchronization critically depends on the control strategy, which must be carefully chosen considering system features such as the presence of hidden attractors. We studied the feasibility of fuzzy control for synchronizing chaotic systems with hidden attractors and employed a special numerical integration method that takes advantage of the oscillatory characteristic of chaotic systems. We hypothesized that fuzzy synchronization and the chosen numerical integration method can successfully deal with this case of synchronization. We tested two synchronization schemes: complete synchronization, which leverages linearization, and projective synchronization, capitalizing on parallel distributed compensation (PDC). We applied the proposal to a set of known chaotic systems of integer order with hidden attractors. Our results indicated that fuzzy control strategies combined with the special numerical integration method are effective tools to synchronize chaotic systems with hidden attractors. In addition, for projective synchronization, we propose a new strategy to optimize error convergence. Furthermore, we tested and compared different Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models obtained by tensor product (TP) model transformation. We found an effect of the fuzzy model of the chaotic system on the synchronization performance

A New Chaotic System with Line of Equilibria: Dynamics, Passive Control and Circuit Design

A new chaotic system with line equilibrium is introduced in this paper. This system consists of five terms with two transcendental nonlinearities and two quadratic nonlinearities. Various tools of dynamical system such as phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents, Kaplan-Yorke dimension, bifurcation diagram and Poincarè map are used. It is interesting that this system has a line of fixed points and can display chaotic attractors. Next, this paper discusses control using passive control method. One example is given to insure the theoretical analysis. Finally, for the  new chaotic system, An electronic circuit for realizing the chaotic system has been implemented. The numerical simulation by using MATLAB 2010 and implementation of circuit simulations by using MultiSIM 10.0 have been performed in this study

Dynamic system with no equilibrium and its chaos anti-synchronization

Recently, systems with chaos and the absence of equilibria have received a great deal of attention. In our work, a simple five-term system and its anti-synchronization are presented. It is special that the system has a hyperbolic sine nonlinearity and no equilibrium. Such a system generates chaotic behaviours, which are verified by phase portraits, positive Lyapunov exponent as well as an electronic circuit. Moreover, the system displays multistable characteristic when changing its initial conditions. By constructing an adaptive control, chaos anti-synchronization of the system with no equilibrium is obtained and illustrated via a numerical example

New hyperchaotic system with single nonlinearity, its electronic circuit and encryption design based on current conveyor

Nowadays, hyperchaotic system (HCSs) have been started to be used in engineering applications because they have complex dynamics, randomness, and high sensitivity. For this purpose, HCSs with different features have been introduced in the literature. In this work, a new HCS with a single discontinuous nonlinearity is introduced and analyzed. The proposed system has one saddle focus equilibrium. When the dynamic properties and bifurcation graphics of the system are analyzed, it is determined that the proposed system exhibits the complex phenomenon of multistability. Moreover, analog electronic circuit design of the proposed system is performed with positive second-generation current conveyor. In addition, an encryption circuit is designed to demonstrate that the proposed system can be used in various engineering applications

Researchers have recently paid significant attention to special chaotic systems. In this work, we introduce an oscillator with different special features. In addition, the oscillator is symmetrical. The features and oscillator dynamics are discovered through different tools of nonlinear dynamics. An electronic circuit is designed to mimic the oscillator’s dynamics. Moreover, the combined synchronization of two drives and one response oscillator is reported. Numerical examples illustrate the correction of our approach.This work is partially funded by Centre for Nonlinear Systems, Chennai Institute of Technology, India vide funding number CIT/CNS/2021/RD/064
