Neural network models have recently demonstrated impressive prediction performance in complex systems where chaos and unpredictability appear. In spite of the research efforts carried out on predicting future trajectories or improving their accuracy compared to numerical methods, not sufficient work has been done by using deep learning techniques in which they characterize the unpredictability of chaotic systems or give a general view of the global unpredictability of a system. In this work we propose a novel approach based on deep learning techniques to measure the fractal dimension of the basins of attraction of the Duffing oscillator for a variety of parameters. As a consequence, we provide an algorithm capable of predicting fractal dimension measures as accurately as the conventional algorithm, but with a computation speed about ten times faster., Comment: Keywords: Deep learning; chaos; unpredictability; fractal dimension; Duffing oscillator

Recent theoretical investigations have revealed unconventional transport mechanisms within high Brilliouin zones of two-dimensional superlattices. Electrons can navigate along channels we call superwires, gently guided without brute force confinement. Such dynamical confinement is caused by weak superlattice deflections, markedly different from the static or energetic confinement observed in traditional wave guides or one-dimensional electron wires. The quantum properties of superwires give rise to elastic dynamical tunneling, linking disjoint regions of the corresponding classical phase space, and enabling the emergence of several parallel channels. This paper provides the underlying theory and mechanisms that facilitate dynamical tunneling assisted by chaos in periodic lattices. Moreover, we show that the mechanism of dynamical tunneling can be effectively conceptualized through the lens of a paraxial approximation. Our results further reveal that superwires predominantly exist within flat bands, emerging from eigenstates that represent linear combinations of conventional degenerate Bloch states. Finally, we quantify tunneling rates across various lattice configurations, and demonstrate the tunneling can be suppressed in a controlled fashion, illustrating potential implications in future nanodevices., Comment: 12 pages, 6 Figures
