Violation of hyperbolicity via unstable dimension variability in a chain with local hyperbolic chaotic attractors
We consider a chain of oscillators with hyperbolic chaos coupled via
diffusion. When the coupling is strong the chain is synchronized and
demonstrates hyperbolic chaos so that there is one positive Lyapunov exponent.
With the decay of the coupling the second and the third Lyapunov exponents
approach zero simultaneously. The second one becomes positive, while the third
one remains close to zero. Its finite-time numerical approximation fluctuates
changing the sign within a wide range of the coupling parameter. These
fluctuations arise due to the unstable dimension variability which is known to
be the source for non-hyperbolicity. We provide a detailed study of this
transition using the methods of Lyapunov analysis.Comment: 24 pages, 13 figure
On two-dimensional surface attractors and repellers on 3-manifolds
We show that if is an -diffeomorphism with a surface
two-dimensional attractor or repeller and is a
supporting surface for , then and
there is such that: 1) is a union
of disjoint tame surfaces such that every is
homeomorphic to the 2-torus . 2) the restriction of to
is conjugate to Anosov automorphism of
