Detecting Order and Chaos by the Linear Dependence Index (LDI) Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a new methodology for a fast and reliable discrimination between ordered and chaotic orbits in multidimensional Hamiltonian systems which we call the Linear Dependence Index (LDI). The new method is based on the recently introduced theory of the Generalized Alignment Indices (GALI). LDI takes advantage of the linear dependence (or independence) of deviation vectors of a given orbit, using the method of Singular Value Decomposition at every time step of the integration. We show that the LDI produces estimates which numerically coincide with those of the GALI method for the same number of m deviation vectors, while its main advantage is that it requires considerable less CPU time than GALI especially in Hamiltonian systems of many degrees of freedom.

Measurement and comparison of the temperature-dependence of refractive index of water and Plexiglas phantoms by interferometry method for their use in optical calorimetry
In radiation calorimetry by using laser beams and interferometry setups, variations induced by dose absorption in phantom can be precisely measured. Dose absorption and the induced temperature change result in refractive index variation of the material. In order to be able to measure the low amount of absorbed dose in the phantom, temperature dependence of refractive index of the material must ...
متن کاملDetecting order and chaos in Hamiltonian systems by the SALI method
We use the Smaller Alignment Index (SALI) to distinguish rapidly and with certainty between ordered and chaotic motion in Hamiltonian flows. This distinction is based on the different behavior of the SALI for the two cases: the index fluctuates around non–zero values for ordered orbits, while it tends rapidly to zero for chaotic orbits. We present a detailed study of SALI’s behavior for chaotic...

Analysis of nonlinear autonomous systems has been a popular field of study in recent decades. As an interesting nonlinear behavior, chaotic dynamics has been intensively investigated since Lorenz discovered the first physical evidence of chaos in his famous equations. Although many chaotic systems have been ever reported in the literature, a systematic and qualitative approach for chaos generat...

Sciences exist to demonstrate the fundamental order underlying nature. Chaos/complexity theory is a novel and amazing field of scientific inquiry. Notions of our everyday experiences are somehow in connection to the laws of nature through chaos/complexity theory’s concerns with the relationships between simplicity and complexity, between orderliness and randomness (Retrieved from http://www.inc...
