This paper discusses phase space structures encountered in the neighborhood of periodic orbits with high order multiplicity in a 3D autonomous Hamiltonian system with a potential of galactic type. We consider 4D spaces of section and we use the method of color and rotation [Patsis & Zachilas, 1994] in order to visualize them. As examples, we use the case of two orbits, one 2-periodic and one 7-periodic. We investigate the structure of multiple tori around them in the 4D surface of section and in addition, we study the orbital behavior in the neighborhood of the corresponding simple unstable periodic orbits. By considering initially a few consequents in the neighborhood of the orbits in both cases we find a structure in the space of section, which is in direct correspondence with what is observed in a resonance zone of a 2D autonomous Hamiltonian system. However, in our 3D case we have instead of stability islands rotational tori, while the chaotic zone connecting the points of the unstable periodic orbit is replaced by filaments extending in 4D following a smooth color variation. For more intersections, the consequents of the orbit which started in the neighborhood of the unstable periodic orbit, diffuse in phase space and form a cloud that occupies a large volume surrounding the region containing the rotational tori. In this cloud the colors of the points are mixed. The same structures have been observed in the neighborhood of all m-periodic orbits we have examined in the system. This indicates a generic behavior.

We study the orbital behavior at the neighborhood of complex unstable periodic orbits in a 3D autonomous Hamiltonian system of galactic type. At a transition of a family of periodic orbits from stability to complex instability (also known as Hamiltonian Hopf Bifurcation) the four eigenvalues of the stable periodic orbits move out of the unit circle. Then the periodic orbits become complex unstable. In this paper, we first integrate initial conditions close to the ones of a complex unstable periodic orbit, which is close to the transition point. Then, we plot the consequents of the corresponding orbit in a 4D surface of section. To visualize this surface of section we use the method of color and rotation [Patsis & Zachilas, 1994]. We find that the consequents are contained in 2D "confined tori". Then, we investigate the structure of the phase space in the neighborhood of complex unstable periodic orbits, which are further away from the transition point. In these cases we observe clouds of points in the 4D surfaces of section. The transition between the two types of orbital behavior is abrupt.

Abstract. Unstable periodic orbit (UPO) recently has become a keyword in analyzing complex phenomena in geophysical fluid dynamics and space physics. In this paper, sets of UPOs in low dimensional maps are theoretically or systematically found, and time averaged properties along UPOs are studied, in relation to those of chaotic orbits.

Abstract Unstable periodic orbits of the saddle type are often extracted from chaotic sets. We use the recurrence method of extracting segments of the chaotic data to approximate the true unstable periodic orbit. Then nearby trajectories are then examined to obtain the dynamics local to the extracted orbit, in terms of an affine map. The affine map is then used to estimate the true orbit. Accuracy is evaluated in examples including well known maps and the Duffing oscillator.

We demonstrate numerically and experimentally that a slow modulation of cavity detuning in a loss-modulated CO 2 laser can stabilize unstable periodic orbits even when the system remains in a particular dynamical regime for adiabatic changes of the detuning. When the parameter changes faster than the transient response of deformation of the original periodic attractor, the system can evolve toward an unstable periodic orbit.

In this paper, stabilizing the unstable periodic orbits (UPO) in a chaotic fractional order system called Van der Pol is studied. Firstly, a technique for finding unstable periodic orbit in chaotic fractional order systems is stated. Then by applying this technique to the van der Pol system, unstable periodic orbit of system is found. After that, a method is presented for stabilization of the discovered UPO based on theories stability of the linear integer order and fractional order systems. Finally, a linear feedback controller was applied to the system and simulation is done for demonstration of controller performance.

Abstract The aim of this paper is to investigate the escape dynamics in a Hamiltonian system describing the motion of stars in a galaxy with two exit channels through the analysis of the successive intersections of the stable and unstable manifolds to the main unstable periodic orbits with an adequate surface of section. We describe in detail the origin of the spirals shapes of the windows through which stars escape.

In this article, we present the influence of a Hamiltonian saddle-node bifurcation on the high-dimensional phase space structures that mediate reaction dynamics. To achieve this goal, we identify the phase space invariant manifolds using Lagrangian descriptors, which is a trajectory-based diagnostic suitable for the construction of a complete “phase space tomography” by means of analyzing dynamics on low-dimensional slices. First, we build a Hamiltonian system with one degree-of-freedom (DoF) that models reaction, and study the effect of adding a parameter to the potential energy function that controls the depth of the well. Then, we extend this framework to a saddle-node bifurcation for a two DoF Hamiltonian, constructed by coupling a harmonic oscillator, i.e. a bath mode, to the other reactive DoF in the system. For this problem, we describe the phase space structures associated with the rank-1 saddle equilibrium point in the bottleneck region, which is a Normally Hyperbolic Invariant Manifold (NHIM) and its stable and unstable manifolds. Finally, we address the qualitative changes in the reaction dynamics of the Hamiltonian system due to changes in the well depth of the potential energy surface that gives rise to the saddle-node bifurcation.

The dynamics of a bouncing ball reflected off a harmonic spring is investigated, with weak dissipation of three different types. The phase space is found to be organized into a system of tubes that wind around the branches of the bifurcation tree of periodic orbits of the Hamiltonian system. Instead of attraction towards special periodic orbits we observe a kind of piecewise adiabatic invariance of the tubes, with jumps occurring when the branches penetrate each other.

In our previous research [Lee et al., 1995], we demonstrated that return map control and adaptive tracking method can be used together to locate, stabilize and track unstable periodic orbits (UPO) automatically. Our adaptive tracking method is based on the control bifurcation (CB) phenomenon which is another route to chaos generated by feedback control. Along the CB route, there are numerous driven periodic orbits (DPOs), and they can be good control targets if small system modification is allowed. In this paper, we introduce a new control concept of global bifurcation approximation (GBA) which is quite different from the traditional local linear approximation (LLA). Based on this approach, we also demonstrate that chaotic attractor can be induced from a periodic orbit. If feedback control is applied along the direction to chaos, small erratic fluctuations of a periodic orbit is magnified and the chaotic attractor is induced. One of the special features of CB is the existence of irreversible orbit (IO) which is generated at the strong extreme of feedback control and has irreversible property. We show that IO induces a hysteresis phenomenon in CB, and we discuss how to keep away from IO.
