Nonlinearity and chaos in ecological dynamics revisited.
Historically, both experimental and theoretical ecologists have sought to emulate the development of early theory in the physical sciences: the ideal that a few simple equations may accurately predict the complex movement of celestial bodies or interactions among molecules in mixing gasses. In the environmental sciences, such simple clockworks have rarely been found, and rather than predictable...
متن کاملChaos in a Fractional-Order Jerk Model using Tanh Nonlinearity
Chaos in a fractional-order jerk model using hyperbolic tangent nonlinearity is presented. A fractional integrator in the model is approximated by linear transfer function approximation in the frequency domain. Resulting chaotic attractors are demonstrated with the system orders as low as 2.1.
متن کاملPeriodicity versus Chaos in One-Dimensional Dynamics
We survey recent results in one-dimensional dynamics, and as an application, we derive rigorous basic dynamical facts for two standard models in population dynamics, the Ricker and the Hassell families. We also informally discuss the concept of chaos in the context of one-dimensional discrete time models. First we use the model case of the quadratic family for an informal exposition and then we...
متن کاملMartingales, nonlinearity, and chaos
In this article we provide a review of the literature with respect to the e$cient markets hypothesis and chaos. In doing so, we contrast the martingale behavior of asset prices to nonlinear chaotic dynamics, discuss some recent techniques used in distinguishing between probabilistic and deterministic behavior in asset prices, and report some evidence. Moreover, we look at the controversies that...
متن کاملDynamics of Traac Jams: Order and Chaos
By means of a novel variational approach we study ergodic properties of a model of a multi lane traac ow, considered as a (deterministic) wandering of interacting particles on an innnite lattice. For a class of initial conngurations of particles (roughly speaking satisfying the Law of Large Numbers) the complete description of their limit (in time) behavior is obtained, as well as estimates of ...
