A detailed analysis of deterministic (one-to-one) and stochastic (one-to-many) dynamics establishes that dS/dt > 0 is only consistent with the latter, which contains violation of temporal symmetry and homogeneity. We observe that the former only supports dS/dt = 0 and cannot give rise to Boltzmann’s molecular chaos assumption. The ensemble average is more meaningful than the temporal average, e...

In a chaos-shift-keying (CSK) digital communication system, correlators followed by a comparator are typically used for coherent detection of the signal. Such a detection method, however, does not take the temporal variation of the bit energy into consideration. In this paper, an optimum detection for a binary CSK system is derived, taking into account the temporal variation of the bit energy f...

Mathematically, chaotic dynamics are not devoid of order but display episodes of near-cyclic temporal patterns. This is illustrated, in interesting ways, in the case of chaotic biological populations. Despite the individual nature of organisms and the noisy nature of biological time series, subtle temporal patterns have been detected. By using data drawn from chaotic insect populations, we show...

Two important classes of spatio-temporal patterns, namely, spatiotemporal chaos and self-replicating patterns, for a representative three variable autocatalytic reaction mechanism coupled with diffusion has been studied. The characterization of these patterns has been carried out in terms of Lyapunov exponents and dimension density. The results show a linear scaling as a function of sub-system ...

The objectives of our research are to improve our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the formation of complex spatio-temporal patterns in systems that are driven outside of thermodynamic equilibrium, to characterize the macroscopic properties of such states, and to apply the methodology to situations of interest in fluid physics and engineering. Current research focuses on pattern forma...

Chaos is a nonlinear behavior that shows chaotic and irregular responses to internal and external stimuli in dynamic systems. This behavior usually appears in systems that are highly sensitive to initial condition. In these systems, stabilization is a highly considerable tool for eliminating aberrant behaviors. In this paper, the problem of stabilization and tracking the chaos are investigated....

today we are facing with a turbulent world full of complexity and change. contemporary problems are too complicated for rational, logical solutions. they admit insights, not answers. chaos theory is a solution to reveal insights into the structure and the dynamics of complex systems. chaos theory is in formative stage, but we can use it in management practices. this article is about application...

Biological information processing is often carried out by complex networks of interconnected dynamical units. A basic question about such networks is that of reliability: If the same signal is presented many times with the network in different initial states, will the system entrain to the signal in a repeatable way? Reliability is of particular interest in neuroscience, where large, complex ne...
