In this paper, an improved fractional-order discrete tabu learning neuron (FODTLN) model map with a nonlinear periodic function as the activation function is proposed. The fixed points of the map are discussed. Then, the rich and complex dynamical behaviors of the map under different parameters and order conditions are investigated by using some common nonlinear dynamical analysis methods combined with the fractional-order approximate entropy method. Furthermore, it is found that fractional-order differential operators affect the generation of multiscrolls, and the model has infinitely many coexisting attractors obtained by changing the initial conditions. Interestingly, attractor growth and state transition are found. Finally, the map is implemented on the DSP hardware platforms to verify the realizability. The results show that the map exhibits complex and interesting dynamical behaviors. It provides a fundamental theory for the research of artificial neural networks.","PeriodicalId":50337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos","volume":" 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139140125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The complexity and unique nature of neuromuscular systems, however, make control problems in these systems very challenging due to several characteristics including speed and precision. Thus, their investigation requires the use of simple and analyzable methods. Consequently, taking into account the central pattern generator’s (CPG) function, we attempted to create a structured chaotic model of how human joints and muscles interact for the purpose of facilitating gait and rehabilitation in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury. The four muscle groups used in this model are gluteus, and hip flexor groups for flexion and extension of the hip joints as well as hamstring muscles and vasti muscles for flexion and extension of the knee joint. The results indicate that the output of the chaotic model of muscle and joint interactions in a healthy state would be chaotic, while in the incomplete spinal cord injury state, it would remain a fixed point. For model rehabilitation, afferent nerve stimulation is used in a CPG model; based on the modeling results, by applying coefficients of 1.98, 2.21, and 3.1 to the values of Ia, II, and Ib afferent nerves, the incomplete spinal cord injury model state is changed from a fix-point to periodic in a permanent fashion, suggesting locomotion with rehabilitation in our model. Based on the results obtained from the chaotic model of muscle and joint interactions as well as the comparisons made with reference papers, it can be stated that this model has acceptable output while enjoying simple computations and can predict different norms.","PeriodicalId":50337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos","volume":" 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139137739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model undergoes backward bifurcation with respect to the parameter representing the side effects due to treatment. This phenomenon emphasizes the critical role of treatment control parameters in shaping epidemic outcomes. In addition, to understand the optimal role of the treatment in mitigating the disease prevalence and minimizing the associated cost, we investigated a fractional-order optimal control problem. To further visualize the analytical results, we have conducted simulation works considering feasible parameter values for the model.

It is well-known that trajectories of a chaotic system are sensitive to its initial condition, known as the “butterfly-effect”, while its statistics normally remain stable to small disturbances: this type of chaos is called “normal-chaos”. However, a concept called “ultra-chaos” has been recently introduced, whose statistical features are unstable, i.e. extremely sensitive to small disturbances. Up to now, a few examples of ultra-chaos have been reported. In this paper, the influence of tiny disturbances on the motion of walking droplet is investigated. It is found that both normal-chaos and ultra-chaos exist in the motion of the walking droplet. Different from the normal-chaotic motion, even the statistical properties of the droplet’s ultra-chaotic motion are sensitive to tiny disturbances. Therefore, this illustrates once again that ultra-chaos indeed exists widely and represents a higher disorder compared with normal-chaos. The ultra-chaos as a new concept can widen our knowledge about chaos and provide us with a new point of view to study chaotic properties. It should be emphasized that, for an ultra-chaos, it is impossible to repeat any results of its physical experiments or numerical simulations even in the meaning of statistics! Unfortunately, reproducibility is a corner stone of modern science. Thus, the paradigm of modern scientific research might be invalid for an ultra-chaotic system.","PeriodicalId":50337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139140397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two dynamical Stackelberg game models are developed based on the assumption that the retailer is an adaptive player, and the manufacturer is a bounded rational player who may adopt a delay decision. The existence and locally asymptotic stability of the Nash equilibrium are examined. Moreover, the impacts of key parameters on the complexity characteristics of the models and the performance of chain members are studied by numerical simulation. The results reveal that the excessively fast price adjustment speeds of the manufacturer, the larger consumers’ discount perception for the remanufactured products, and the consumers’ preference for the direct channel have a strong destabilizing effect on the Nash equilibrium’s stability. Furthermore, the delay decision implemented by the manufacturer could be a stabilizing or destabilizing factor for the system. The manufacturer will tolerate a considerable profit reduction while the retailer gains more profits when the dual-channel CLSC system enters periodic cycles and chaotic motions.","PeriodicalId":50337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos","volume":" 38","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139141711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is found that the passive/active state of memristor, which means different characteristics in the [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] domain with positive and negative parameters of the elements, can affect the state of the oscillator. For example, if the memristor is active, the oscillator will change more frequently in the multistable region. Also, it is noted that, for inherent initial-related symmetry and circuit structures with duality, both phenomena have strong symmetric characteristics and opposite evolution trends modulated by values of corresponding components. Especially, the bubbles, which are symmetric about parameters with duality and own complex evolution laws, have rarely been explored in previous works. In addition, the memristive oscillator is modularized based on field programmable gate array (FPGA) technology, and the multiple coexisting attractors are captured, which verifies the accuracy of the numerical results.","PeriodicalId":50337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos","volume":" 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139140992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the result of varying the system parameter in the region of parameter space close to where the unstable synchronization is observed, we find significant changes in the stability of its periodic motion. We derive a discrete-time dynamical system that is equivalent to the original model and reveal that the unstable synchronization in the continuous-time dynamical system is equivalent to border-collision bifurcations in the corresponding discrete-time system. Furthermore, we propose an objective function that can be used to obtain the parameter set at which the border-collision bifurcation occurs. The proposed objective function is numerically differentiable and can be solved using Newton’s method. We numerically generate a bifurcation diagram in the parameter plane, including the border-collision bifurcation sets. In the diagram, the border-collision bifurcation sets show a novel bifurcation structure that resembles the “strike-slip fault” observed in geology. This structure implies that, before and after the border-collision bifurcation occurs, the stability of the periodic point discontinuously changes in some cases but maintains in other cases. In addition, we demonstrate that a border-collision bifurcation set successively branches at distinct points. This behavior results in a tree-like structure being observed in the border-collision bifurcation diagram; we refer to this structure as a border-collision bifurcation tree. We observe that a periodic point disappears at the border-collision bifurcation in the discrete-time dynamical system and is simultaneously replaced by another periodic point; this phenomenon corresponds to a change in the firing order in the continuous-time dynamical system.","PeriodicalId":50337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos","volume":" 29","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139141837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the center manifold theory and the normal form method, the universal unfolding of the Turing–Hopf bifurcation at the positive constant steady-state is demonstrated. According to the universal unfolding, a Turing–Hopf bifurcation diagram is shown under a set of specific parameters. Furthermore, in different parameter regions, we find the existence of the spatially inhomogeneous steady-state, the spatially homogeneous and inhomogeneous periodic solutions.
