The phenomenon of branched flow, visualized as a chaotic arborescent pattern of propagating particles, waves, or rays, has been identified in disparate physical systems ranging from electrons to tsunamis, with periodic systems only recently being added to this list. Here, we explore the laws governing the evolution of the branches in periodic potentials. On one hand, we observe that branch formation follows a similar pattern in all non-integrable potentials, no matter whether the potentials are periodic or completely irregular. Chaotic dynamics ultimately drives the birth of the branches. On the other hand, our results reveal that for periodic potentials the decay of the branches exhibits new characteristics due to the presence of infinitely stable branches known as superwires. Again, the interplay between branched flow and superwires is deeply connected to Hamiltonian chaos. In this work, we explore the relationships between the laws of branched flow and the structures of phase space, providing extensive numerical and theoretical arguments to support our findings.

Nonlinear Sciences - Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems - Abstract
Ultra-high frequency linear frequency modulation (UHF-LFM) signal, as a kind of typical non-stationary signal, has been widely used in microwave radar and other fields, with advantages such as long transmission distance, strong anti-interference ability, and wide bandwidth. Utilizing optimal dynamics response has unique advantages in weak feature identification under strong background noise. We propose a new stochastic resonance method in an asymmetric bistable system with the time-varying parameter to handle this special non-stationary signal. Interestingly, the nonlinear response exhibits multiple stochastic resonances (MSR) and inverse stochastic resonances (ISR) under UHF-LFM signal excitation, and some resonance regions may deviate or collapse due to the influence of system asymmetry. In addition, we analyze the responses of each resonance region and the mechanism and evolution law of each resonance region in detail. Finally, we significantly expand the resonance region within the parameter range by optimizing the time scale, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed time-varying scale method. The mechanism and evolution law of MSR and ISR will provide references for researchers in related fields., Comment: 23 pages, 13 figures

When two systems are coupled, one can play the role of the driver, and the other can be the driven or response system. In this scenario, the driver system can behave as an external forcing. Thus, we study its interaction when a periodic forcing drives the driver system. In the analysis a new phenomenon shows up: when the driver system is forced by a periodic forcing, it can suffer a resonance and this resonance can be transmitted through the coupling mechanism to the driven system. Moreover, in some cases the enhanced oscillations amplitude can also interplay with a previous resonance already acting in the driven system dynamics.

The main purpose of this paper is to study both the underdamped and the overdamped dynamics of the nonlinear Helmholtz oscillator with a fractional order damping. For that purpose, we use the Grunwald-Letnikov fractional derivative algorithm in order to get the numerical simulations. Here, we investigate the effect of taking the fractional derivative in the dissipative term in function of the parameter a. Our main findings show that the trajectories can remain inside the well or can escape from it depending on a which plays the role of a control parameter. Besides, the parameter a is also relevant for the creation or destruction of chaotic motions. On the other hand, the study of the escape times of the particles from the well, as a result of variations of the initial conditions and the undergoing force F, is reported by the use of visualization techniques such as basins of attraction and bifurcation diagrams, showing a good agreement with previous results. Finally, the study of the escape times versus the fractional parameter a shows an exponential decay which goes to zero when a is larger than one. All the results have been carried out for weak damping where chaotic motions can take place in the non-fractional case and also for a stronger damping (overdamped case), where the influence of the fractional term plays a crucial role to enhance chaotic motions. We expect that these results can be of interest in the field of fractional calculus and its applications.

Nonlinear Sciences - Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems ,Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
We analyze the nonlinear Helmholtz oscillator in the presence of fractional damping, a characteristic feature in several physical situations. In our specific scenario, as well as in the non-fractional case, for large enough excitation amplitudes, all initial conditions are escaping from the potential well. To address this, we incorporate the phase control technique into a parametric term, a feature commonly encountered in real-world situations. In the non-fractional case it has been shown that, a phase difference of {\phi_{OPT}} \simeq {\pi}, is the optimal value to avoid the escapes of the particles from the potential well. Here, our investigation focuses on understanding when particles escape, considering both the phase difference {\phi} and the fractional parameter {\alpha} as control parameters. Our findings unveil the robustness of phase control, as evidenced by the consistent oscillation of the optimal {\phi} value around its non-fractional counterpart when varying the fractional parameter. Additionally, our results underscore the pivotal role of the fractional parameter in governing the proportion of bounded particles, even when utilizing the optimal phase.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
In the seminal paper (Phys. Rep. 52, 263, 1979), Boris Chirikov showed that the standard map does not exhibit a boundary to chaos, but rather that there are small islands (islets) of stability for arbitrarily large values of the nonlinear perturbation. In this context, he established that the area of the islets in the phase space and the range of parameter values where they exist should decay following power laws with exponents -2 and -1, respectively. In this paper, we carry out a systematic numerical search for islets of stability and we show that the power laws predicted by Chirikov hold. Furthermore, we use high-resolution 3D islets to reveal that the islets volume decays following a similar power law with exponent -3., Comment: 7 pages

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
We investigate the synchronization between two neurons using the stochastic version of the map-based Chialvo model. To simulate non-identical neurons, a mismatch is introduced in one of the main parameters of the model. Subsequently, the synchronization of the neurons is studied as a function of this mismatch, the noise introduced in the stochastic model, and the coupling strength between the neurons. We propose the simplest neuron network for study, as its analysis is more straightforward and does not compromise generality. Within this network, two nonidentical neuron maps are electrically coupled. In order to understand if specific behaviors affect the global behavior of the system, we consider different cases related to the behavior of the neurons (chaotic or periodic). Furthermore, we study how variations in model parameters affect the firing frequency in all cases. Additionally, we consider that the two neurons have both excitatory and inhibitory couplings. Consequently, we identify critical values of noise and mismatch for achieving satisfactory synchronization between the neurons in both cases. Finally, we conjecture that the results are of a general nature and are applicable to different neuron models.

Over the past two decades, vibrational resonance has garnered significant interest and evolved into a prominent research field. Classical vibrational resonance examines the response of a nonlinear system excited by two signals: a weak, slowly varying characteristic signal, and a fast-varying auxiliary signal. The characteristic signal operates on a much longer time scale than the auxiliary signal. Through the cooperation of the nonlinear system and these two excitations, the faint input can be substantially amplified, showcasing the constructive role of the fast-varying signal. Since its inception, vibrational resonance has been extensively studied across various disciplines, including physics, mathematics, biology, neuroscience, laser science, chemistry, and engineering. Here, we delve into a detailed discussion of vibrational resonance and the most recent advances, beginning with an introduction to characteristic signals commonly used in its study. Furthermore, we compile numerous nonlinear models where vibrational resonance has been observed to enhance readers' understanding and provide a basis for comparison. Subsequently, we present the metrics used to quantify vibrational resonance, as well as offer a theoretical formulation. This encompasses the method of direct separation of motions, linear and nonlinear vibrational resonance, re-scaled vibrational resonance, ultrasensitive vibrational resonance, and the role of noise in vibrational resonance. Later, we showcase two practical applications of vibrational resonance: one in image processing and the other in fault diagnosis. This presentation offers a comprehensive and versatile overview of vibrational resonance, exploring various facets and highlighting promising avenues for future research in both theory and engineering applications.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
The interaction between the fractional order parameter and the damping parameter can play a relevant role for introducing different dynamical behaviors in a physical system. Here, we study the Duffing oscillator with a fractional damping term. Our findings show that for certain values of the fractional order parameter, the damping parameter, and the forcing amplitude high oscillations amplitude can be induced. This phenomenon is due to the appearance of a resonance in the Duffing oscillator only when the damping term is fractional., Comment: 19 pages, 12 figures

Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics ,Mathematical Physics - Abstract
The theory of stochastic resetting asserts that restarting a stochastic process can expedite its completion. In this paper, we study the escape process of a Brownian particle in an open Hamiltonian system that suffers noise-enhanced stability. This phenomenon implies that under specific noise amplitudes the escape process is delayed. Here, we propose a new protocol for stochastic resetting that can avoid the noise-enhanced stability effect. In our approach, instead of resetting the trajectories at certain time intervals, a trajectory is reset when a predefined energy threshold is reached. The trajectories that delay the escape process are the ones that lower their energy due to the stochastic fluctuations. Our resetting approach leverages this fact and avoids long transients by resetting trajectories before they reach low energy levels. Finally, we show that the chaotic dynamics (i.e., the sensitive dependence on initial conditions) catalyzes the effectiveness of the resetting strategy.

Nonlinear Sciences - Pattern Formation and Solitons ,Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
We have found two kinds of ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance in coupled nonlinear systems. It is particularly worth pointing out that this ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance is a transient behavior caused by transient chaos. Considering long-term response, the system will transform from transient chaos to periodic response. The pattern of vibrational resonance will also transform from ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance to conventional vibrational resonance. This article focuses on the transient ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance phenomenon. It is induced by a small disturbance of the high-frequency excitation and the initial simulation conditions, respectively. The damping coefficient and the coupling strength are the key factors to induce the ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance. By increasing these two parameters, the vibrational resonance pattern can be transformed from an ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance to a conventional vibrational resonance. The reason for different vibrational resonance patterns to occur lies in the state of the system response. The response usually presents transient chaotic behavior when the ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance appears and the plot of the response amplitude versus the controlled parameters shows a highly fractalized pattern. When the response is periodic or doubly-periodic, it usually corresponds to the conventional vibrational resonance. The ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance not only occurs at the excitation frequency, but it also occurs at some more nonlinear frequency components. The ultra-sensitive vibrational resonance as a transient behavior and the transformation of vibrational resonance patterns are new phenomena in coupled nonlinear systems.

Physics - Physics and Society - Abstract
From a context of evolutionary dynamics, social games can be studied as complex systems that may converge to a Nash equilibrium. Nonetheless, they can behave in an unpredictable manner when looking at the spatial patterns formed by the agents' strategies. This is known in the literature as spatial chaos. In this paper we analyze the problem for a deterministic prisoner's dilemma and a public goods game and calculate the Hamming distance that separates two solutions that start at very similar initial conditions for both cases. The rapid growth of this distance indicates the high sensitivity to initial conditions, which is a well-known indicator of chaotic dynamics., Comment: 23 pages, 16 figures (13 uploaded images)

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
We explore the effect of some simple perturbations on three chaotic models proposed to describe large scale solar behavior via the solar dynamo theory: the Lorenz and the Rikitake systems, and a Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator. Planetary magnetic fields affecting the solar dynamo activity have been simulated by using harmonic perturbations. These perturbations introduce cycle intermittency and amplitude irregularities revealed by the frequency spectra of the nonlinear signals. Furthermore, we have found that the perturbative intensity acts as an order parameter in the correlations between the system and the external forcing. Our findings suggest a promising avenue to study the sunspot activity by using nonlinear dynamics methods.

Computer Science - Machine Learning - Abstract
This research addresses the challenge of characterizing the complexity and unpredictability of basins within various dynamical systems. The main focus is on demonstrating the efficiency of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in this field. Conventional methods become computationally demanding when analyzing multiple basins of attraction across different parameters of dynamical systems. Our research presents an innovative approach that employs CNN architectures for this purpose, showcasing their superior performance in comparison to conventional methods. We conduct a comparative analysis of various CNN models, highlighting the effectiveness of our proposed characterization method while acknowledging the validity of prior approaches. The findings not only showcase the potential of CNNs but also emphasize their significance in advancing the exploration of diverse behaviors within dynamical systems.

Mathematics - Dynamical Systems ,Mathematical Physics ,Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
We study two coupled systems, one playing the role of the driver system and the other one of the driven system. The driver system is a time-delayed oscillator, and the driven or response system has a negligible delay. Since the driver system plays the role of the only external forcing of the driven system, we investigate its influence on the response system amplitude, frequency and the conditions for which it triggers a resonance in the response system output. It results that in some ranges of the coupling value, the stronger the value does not mean the stronger the synchronization, due to the arise of a resonance. Moreover, coupling means an interchange of information between the driver and the driven system. Thus, a built-in delay should be taken into account. Therefore, we study whether a delayed-nonlinear oscillator can pass along its delay to the entire coupled system and, as a consequence, to model the lag in the interchange of information between the two coupled systems., Comment: 24 pages, 10 figures

During the last decades active particles have attracted an incipient attention as they have been observed in a broad class of scenarios, ranging from bacterial suspension in living systems to artificial swimmers in nonequilibirum systems. The main feature of these particles is that they are able to gain kinetic energy from the environment, which is widely modeled by a stochastic process due to both (Gaussian) white and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck noises. In the present work, we study the nonlinear dynamics of the forced, time-delayed Duffing oscillator subject to these noises, paying special attention to their impact upon the maximum oscillations amplitude and characteristic frequency of the steady state for different values of the time delay and the driving force. Overall, our results indicate that the role of the time delay is substantially modified with respect to the situation without noise. For instance, we show that the oscillations amplitude grows with increasing noise strength when the time delay acts as a damping term in absence of noise, whereas the trajectories eventually become aperiodic when the oscillations are sustained by the time delay. In short, the interplay among the noises, forcing and time delay gives rise to a rich dynamics: a regular and periodic motion is destroyed or restored owing to the competition between the noise and the driving force depending on time delay values, whereas an erratic motion insensitive to the driving force emerges when the time delay makes the motion aperiodic. Interestingly, we also show that, for a sufficient noise strength and forcing amplitude, an approximately periodic interwell motion is promoted by means of stochastic resonance., Comment: 12+1 pages, 10 figures. Comments are welcome. Substantial changes with respect to the first version: an introduction of previous works is included, stochastic resonance effects are now treated, discussion has been partiatly modified, the vast majority of figures were replaced

Nonlinear Sciences - Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems - Abstract
Rotating clusters or vortices are formations of agents that rotate around a common center. These patterns may be found in very different contexts: from swirling fish to surveillance drones. Here, we propose a minimal model for self-propelled chiral particles with inertia, which shows different types of vortices. We consider an attractive interaction for short distances on top of the repulsive interaction that accounts for volume exclusion. We study cluster formation and we find that the cluster size and clustering coefficient increase with the packing of particles. Finally, we classify three new types of vortices: encapsulated, periodic and chaotic. These clusters may coexist and their proportion depends on the density of the ensemble. The results may be interesting to understand some patterns found in nature and to design agents that automatically arrange themselves in a desired formation while exchanging only relative information.

Nonlinear Sciences - Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems ,Mathematical Physics - Abstract
A variation in the environment of a system, such as the temperature, the concentration of a chemical solution or the appearance of a magnetic field, may lead to a drift in one of the parameters. If the parameter crosses a bifurcation point, the system can tip from one attractor to another (bifurcation-induced tipping). Typically, this stability exchange occurs at a parameter value beyond the bifurcation value. This is what we call here the stability exchange shift. We study systematically how the shift is affected by the initial parameter value and its change rate. To that end, we present numerical and analytical results for different types of bifurcations and different paradigmatic systems. Finally, we deduce the scaling laws governing this phenomenon. We show that increasing the change rate and starting the drift further from the bifurcation can delay the tipping process. Furthermore, if the change rate is sufficiently small, the shift becomes independent of the initial condition (no memory) and the shift tends to zero as the square root of the change rate. Thus, the bifurcation diagram for the system with fixed parameters is recovered.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
Bifurcation theory is the usual analytic approach to study the parameter space of a dynamical system. Despite the great power of prediction of these techniques, fundamental limitations appear during the study of a given problem. Nonlinear dynamical systems often hide their secrets and the ultimate resource is the numerical simulations of the equations. This paper presents a method to explore bifurcations by using the basin entropy. This measure of the unpredictability can detect transformations of phase space structures as a parameter evolves. We present several examples where the bifurcations in the parameter space have a quantitative effect on the basin entropy. Moreover, some transformations, such as the basin boundary metamorphoses, can be identified with the basin entropy but are not reflected in the bifurcation diagram. The correct interpretation of the basin entropy plotted as a parameter extends the numerical exploration of dynamical systems.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
In this paper, we show that the destruction of the main KAM islands in two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian systems occurs through a cascade of period-doubling bifurcations. We calculate the corresponding Feigenbaum constant and the accumulation point of the period-doubling sequence. By means of a systematic grid search on exit basin diagrams, we find the existence of numerous very small KAM islands ('islets') for values below and above the aforementioned accumulation point. We study the bifurcations involving the formation of islets and we classify them in three different types. Finally, we show that the same types of islets appear in generic two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian systems and in area-preserving maps.

Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics ,Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
Noisy scattering dynamics in the randomly driven H\'enon-Heiles system is investigated in the range of initial energies where the motion is unbounded. In this paper we study, with the help of the exit basins and the escape time distributions, how an external perturbation, be it dissipation or periodic forcing with a random phase, can enhance or mitigate the unpredictability of a system that exhibit chaotic scattering. In fact, if basin boundaries have the Wada property, predictability becomes very complicated, since the basin boundaries start to intermingle, what means that there are points of different basins close to each other. The main responsible of this unpredictability is the external forcing with random phase, while the dissipation can recompose the basin boundaries and turn the system more predictable. Therefore, we do the necessary simulations to find out the values of dissipation and external forcing for which the exit basins present the Wada property. Through these numerical simulations, we show that the presence of the Wada basins have a specific relation with the damping, the forcing amplitude and the energy value. Our approach consists on investigating the dynamics of the system in order to gain knowledge able to control the unpredictability due to the Wada basins.

Physics - Applied Physics - Abstract
Noise is ubiquitous and unwanted in detecting weak signals, which would give rise to incorrect filtering frequency-band selection in signal filtering-based methods including fast kurtogram, teager energy operators and wavelet packet transform filters and meanwhile would result in incorrect selection of useful components and even mode mixing, end effects and etc. in signal decomposition-based methods including empirical mode decomposition, singular value decomposition and local mean decomposition. On the contrary, noise in stochastic resonance (SR) is beneficial to enhance weak signals of interest embedded in signals with strong background noise. Taking into account that nonlinear systems are crucial ingredients to activate the SR, here we investigate the SR in the cases of overdamped and underdamped harmonic-Gaussian double-well potential systems subjected to noise and a periodic signal. We derive and measure the analytic expression of the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the steady-state probability density (SPD) function under approximate adiabatic conditions. When the harmonic-Gaussian double-well potential loses its stability, we can observe the antiresonance phenomenon, whereas adding the damped factor into the overdamped system can change the stability of the harmonic-Gaussian double-well potential, resulting that the antiresonance behavior disappears in the underdamped system. Then, we use the overdamped and underdamped harmonic-Gaussian double-well potential SR to enhance weak useful characteristics for diagnosing incipient rotating machinery failures., Comment: 27 pages and 14 figures

The basin entropy is a simple idea that aims to measure the the final state unpredictability of multistable systems. Since 2016, the basin entropy has been widely used in different contexts of physics, from cold atoms to galactic dynamics. Furthermore, it has provided a natural framework to study basins of attraction in nonlinear dynamics and new criteria for the detection of fractal boundaries. In this article, we describe the concept as well as fundamental applications. In addition, we provide our perspective on the future challenges of applying the basin entropy idea to understanding complex systems.

Nonlinear Sciences - Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems ,Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
We propose to control the orbits of the two-dimensional Rulkov model affected by bounded noise. For the correct parameter choice the phase space presents two chaotic regions separated by a transient chaotic region in between. One of the chaotic regions is the responsible to give birth to the neuronal bursting regime. Normally, an orbit in this chaotic region cannot pass through the transient chaotic one and reach the other chaotic region. As a consequence the burstings are short in time. Here, we propose a control technique to connect both chaotic regions and allow the neuron to exhibit very long burstings. This control method defines a region Q covering the transient chaotic region where it is possible to find an advantageous set $S \in Q$ through which the orbits can be driven with a minimal control. In addition we show how the set S changes depending on the noise intensity affecting the map, and how the set S can be used in different scenarios of control., Comment: Controlled neruonal dynamics

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics ,G.1 ,I.6 - Abstract
We consider the nonlinear Duffing oscillator in presence of fractional damping which is characteristic in different physical situations. The system is studied with a smaller and larger damping parameter value, that we call the underdamped and overdamped regimes. In both we have studied the relation between the fractional parameter, the amplitude of the oscillations and the times to reach the asymptotic behavior, called asymptotic times. In the overdamped regime, the study shows that, also here, there are oscillations for fractional order derivatives and their amplitudes and asymptotic times can suddenly change for small variations of the fractional parameter. In addition, in this latter regime, a resonant-like behavior can take place for suitable values of the parameters of the system. These results are corroborated by calculating the corresponding Q-factor. We expect that these results can be useful for a better understanding of fractional dynamics and its possible applications as in modeling different kind of materials that normally need complicated damping terms., Comment: 27 pages, 14 figures

Nonlinear Sciences - Adaptation and Self-Organizing Systems - Abstract
The public goods game is a model of a society investing some assets and regaining a profit, although can also model biological populations. In the classic public goods game only two strategies compete: either cooperate or defect; a third strategy is often implemented to asses punishment, which is a mechanism to promote cooperation. The conditions of the game can be of a dynamical nature, therefore we study time-dependent effects such an as oscillation in the enhancement factor, which accounts for productivity changes over time. Furthermore, we continue to study time dependencies on the game with a delay on the punishment time. We conclude that both the oscillations on the productivity and the punishment delay concur in the detriment of cooperation., Comment: Accepted in the journal Chaos Solitons and Fractals, May 2022

Mathematics - Dynamical Systems ,Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
In this work we deal with the H\'enon and the Lozi map for a choice of parameters where they show transient chaos. Orbits close to the chaotic saddle behave chaotically for a while to eventually escape to an external attractor. Traditionally, to prevent such an escape, the partial control technique has been applied. This method stands out for considering disturbances (noise) affecting the map and for finding a special region of the phase space, called the safe set, where the control required to sustain the orbits is small. However, in this work we will apply a new approach of the partial control method that has been recently developed. This new approach is based on finding a special function called the safety function, which allows to automatically find the minimum control necessary to avoid the escape of the orbits. Furthermore, we will show the strong connection between the safety function and the classical safe set. To illustrate that, we will compute for the first time, safety functions for the two-dimensional H\'enon and Lozi maps, where we also show the strong dependence of this function with the magnitude of disturbances affecting the map, and how this change drastically impacts the controlled orbits., Comment: Accepted in Journal of Difference Equations and Applications. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2105.03351

Chaotic scattering in three dimensions has not received as much attention as in two dimensions so far. In this paper, we deal with a three-dimensional open Hamiltonian system whose Wada basin boundaries become non Wada when the critical energy value is surpassed in the absence of dissipation. In particular, we study here the dissipation effects on this topological change, which has no analogy in two dimensions. Hence, we find that non-Wada basins, expected in the absence of dissipation, transform themselves into partially Wada basins when a weak dissipation reduces the system energy below the critical energy. We provide numerical evidence of the emergence of the Wada points on the basin boundaries under weak dissipation. According to the paper findings, Wada basins are typically driven, enhanced and, consequently, structurally stable under weak dissipation in three-dimensional open Hamiltonian systems., Comment: 18 pages, 9 figures

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
In dynamical systems, basins of attraction connect a given set of initial conditions in phase space to their asymptotic states. The basin entropy and related tools quantify the unpredictability in the final state of a system when there is an initial perturbation or uncertainty in the initial state. Based on the basin entropy, the $\ln 2$ criterion allows for efficient testing of fractal basin boundaries at a fixed resolution. Here, we extend this criterion into a new test with improved sensitivity that we call the \textit{$S_{bb}$ fractality test}. Using the same single scale information, the $S_{bb}$ fractality test allows for the detection of fractal boundaries in many more cases than the $\ln 2$ criterion. The new test is illustrated with the paradigmatic driven Duffing oscillator, and the results are compared with the classical approach given by the uncertainty exponent. We believe that this work can prove particularly useful to study both high-dimensional systems and experimental basins of attraction.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
A basin of attraction represents the set of initial conditions leading to a specific asymptotic state of a given dynamical system. Here, we provide a classification of the most common basins found in nonlinear dynamics with the help of the basin entropy. We have also found interesting connections between the basin entropy and other measures used to characterize the unpredictability associated to the basins of attraction, such as the uncertainty exponent, the lacunarity or other different parameters related to the Wada property.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
In this manuscript we show that a noise-activated escape phenomenon occurs in closed Hamiltonian systems. Due to the energy fluctuations generated by the noise, the isopotential curves open up and the particles can eventually escape in finite times. This drastic change in the dynamical behavior turns the bounded motion into a chaotic scattering problem. We analyze the escape dynamics by means of the average escape time, the probability basins and the average escape time distribution. We obtain that the main characteristics of the scattering are different from the case of noisy open Hamiltonian systems. In particular, the noise-enhanced trapping, which is ubiquitous in Hamiltonian systems, does not play the main role in the escapes. On the other hand, one of our main findings reveals a transition in the evolution of the average escape time insofar the noise is increased. This transition separates two different regimes characterized by different algebraic scaling laws. We provide strong numerical evidence to show that the complete destruction of the stickiness of the KAM islands is the key reason under the change in the scaling law. This research unlocks the possibility of modeling chaotic scattering problems by means of noisy closed Hamiltonian systems. For this reason, we expect potential application to several fields of physics such us celestial mechanics and astrophysics, among others., Comment: 22 pages, 10 figures

The basin of attraction is the set of initial points that will eventually converge to some attracting set. Its knowledge is important in understanding the dynamical behavior of a given dynamical system of interest. In this work, we address the problem of reconstructing the basins of attraction of a multistable system, using only labeled data. To this end, we view this problem as a classification task and use a deep neural network as a classifier for predicting the attractor that corresponds to any given initial condition. Additionally, we provide a method for obtaining an approximation of the basin boundary of the underlying system, using the trained classification model. Finally, we provide evidence relating the complexity of the structure of the basins of attraction with the quality of the obtained reconstructions, via the concept of basin entropy. We demonstrate the application of the proposed method on the Lorenz system in a bistable regime., Comment: 9 pages, 6 figures

Mathematics - Dynamical Systems ,Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics - Abstract
The theory of stochastic resetting asserts that restarting a search process at certain times may accelerate the finding of a target. In the case of a classical diffusing particle trapped in a potential well, stochastic resetting may decrease the escape times due to thermal fluctuations. Here, we numerically explore the Kramers problem for a cubic potential, which is the simplest potential with a escape. Both deterministic and Poisson resetting times are analyzed. We use a Monte Carlo approach, which is necessary for generic complex potentials, and we show that the optimal rate is related to the escape times distribution in the case without resetting. Furthermore, we find rates for which resetting is beneficial even if the resetting position is located on the contrary side of the escape.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
In open Hamiltonian systems, the escape from a bounded region of phase space according to an exponential decay law is frequently associated with the existence of hyperbolic dynamics in such a region. Furthermore, exponential decay laws based on the ergodic hypothesis are used to describe escapes in these systems. However, we uncover that the presence of the set that governs the hyperbolic dynamics, commonly known as the chaotic saddle, invalidates the assumption of ergodicity. For the paradigmatic H\'enon-Heiles system, we use both theoretical and numerical arguments to show that the escaping dynamics is non-ergodic independently of the existence of KAM tori, since the chaotic saddle, in whose vicinity trajectories are more likely to spend a finite amount of time evolving before escaping forever, is not utterly spread over the energy shell. Taking this into consideration, we provide a clarifying discussion about ergodicity in open Hamiltonian systems and explore the limitations of ergodic decay laws when describing escapes in this kind of systems. Finally, we generalize our claims by deriving a new decay law in the relativistic regime for an inertial and a non-inertial reference frames under the assumption of ergodicity, and suggest another approach to the description of escape laws in open Hamiltonian systems., Comment: Manuscript accepted by Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, 28 pages, 10 figures

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
The noise-enhanced trapping is a surprising phenomenon that has already been studied in chaotic scattering problems where the noise affects the physical variables but not the parameters of the system. Following this research, in this work we provide strong numerical evidence to show that an additional mechanism that enhances the trapping arises when the noise influences the energy of the system. For this purpose, we have included a source of Gaussian white noise in the H\'enon-Heiles system, which is a paradigmatic example of open Hamiltonian system. For a particular value of the noise intensity, some trajectories decrease their energy due to the stochastic fluctuations. This drop in energy allows the particles to spend very long transients in the scattering region, increasing their average escape times. This result, together with the previously studied mechanisms, points out the generality of the noise-enhanced trapping in chaotic scattering problems., Comment: 22 pages, 14 figures

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
The unpredictability in chaotic scattering problems is a fundamental topic in physics that has been studied either in purely conservative systems or in the presence of weak perturbations. In many systems noise plays an important role in the dynamical behavior and it models their internal irregularities or their coupling with the environment. In these situations the unpredictability is affected by both the chaotic dynamics and the stochastic fluctuations. In the presence of noise two trajectories with the same initial condition can evolve in different ways and converge to a different asymptotic behavior. For this reason, even the exact knowledge of the initial conditions does not necessarily lead to the predictability of the final state of the system. Hence, the noise can be considered as an important source of unpredictability that cannot be fully understood using the conventional methods of nonlinear dynamics, such as the exit basins and the uncertainty exponent. By adopting a probabilistic point of view, we develop the concepts of probability basin, uncertainty basin and noise-sensitivity exponent, that allow us to carry out both a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the unpredictability on noisy chaotic scattering problems., Comment: 18 pages, 8 figures

Partial control is a technique used in systems with transient chaos. The aim of this control method is to avoid the escape of the orbits from a region Q of the phase space where the transient chaotic dynamics takes place. This technique is based on finding a special subset of Q called the safe set. The chaotic orbit can be sustained in the safe set with a minimum amount of control. In this work we develop a control strategy to gradually lead any chaotic orbit in Q to the safe set by using the safety function. With the technique proposed here, the safe set can be converted into a global attractor of Q., Comment: 16 pages

Mathematics - Dynamical Systems ,Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
A new control algorithm based on the partial control method has been developed. The general situation we are considering is an orbit starting in a certain phase space region Q having a chaotic transient behavior affected by noise, so that the orbit will definitely escape from Q in an unpredictable number of iterations. Thus, the goal of the algorithm is to control in a predictable manner when to escape. While partial control has been used as a way to avoid escapes, here we want to adapt it to force the escape in a controlled manner. We have introduced new tools such as escape functions and escape sets that once computed makes the control of the orbit straightforward. We have applied the new idea to three different cases in order to illustrate the various application possibilities of this new algorithm., Comment: 9 pages

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
In Physics, we have laws that determine the time evolution of a given physical system, depending on its parameters and its initial conditions. When we have multi-stable systems, many attractors coexist so that their basins of attraction might possess fractal or even Wada boundaries in such a way that the prediction becomes more complicated depending on the initial conditions. Chaotic systems typically present fractal basins in phase space. A small uncertainty in the initial conditions gives rise to a certain unpredictability of the final state behavior. The new notion of basin entropy provides a new quantitative way to measure the unpredictability of the final states in basins of attraction. Simple methods from chaos theory can contribute to a better understanding of fundamental questions in physics as well as other scientific disciplines., Comment: To be published as an Editorial in Chaos Theory and Applications 3(2) 2021

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
External and internal factors may cause a system's parameter to vary with time before it stabilizes. This drift induces a regime shift when the parameter crosses a bifurcation. Here, we study the case of an infinite dimensional system: a time-delayed oscillator whose time delay varies at a small but non-negligible rate. Our research shows that due to this parameter drift, trajectories from a chaotic attractor tip to other states with a certain probability. This causes the appearance of the phenomenon of transient chaos. By using an ensemble approach, we find a gamma distribution of transient lifetimes, unlike in other non-delayed systems where normal distributions have been found to govern the process. Furthermore, we analyze how the parameter change rate influences the tipping probability, and we derive a scaling law relating the parameter value for which the tipping takes place and the lifetime of the transient chaos with the parameter change rate.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
Non-autonomous dynamical systems help us to understand the implications of real systems which are in contact with their environment as it actually occurs in nature. Here, we focus on systems where a parameter changes with time at small but non-negligible rates before settling at a stable value, by using the Lorenz system for illustration. This kind of systems commonly show a long-term transient dynamics previous to a sudden transition to a steady state. This can be explained by the crossing of a bifurcation in the associated frozen-in system. We surprisingly uncover a scaling law relating the duration of the transient to the rate of change of the parameter for a case where a chaotic attractor is involved. Additionally, we analyze the viability of recovering the transient dynamics by reversing the parameter to its original value, as an alternative to the control theory for systems with parameter drifts. We obtain the relationship between the paramater change rate and the number of trajectories that tip back to the initial attractor corresponding to the transient state.

Combined effects of the damping and forcing in the underdamped time-delayed Duffing oscillator are considered in this paper. We analyze the generation of a certain damping-induced unpredictability, due to the gradual suppression of interwell oscillations. We find the minimal amount of the forcing amplitude and the right forcing frequency to revert the effect of the dissipation, so that the interwell oscillations can be restored, for different time delay values. This is achieved by using the delay-induced resonance, in which the time delay replaces one of the two periodic forcings present in the vibrational resonance. A discussion in terms of the time delay of the critical values of the forcing for which the delay-induced resonance can tame the dissipation effect is finally carried out., Comment: 22 pages, 11 figures.

Furthermore, it is emphasized the important role played by that nonlinear dynamical systems for the process of understanding. The path of the future of science will be marked by a constructive dialogue between big data and big theory, without which we cannot understand.

The influence of random fluctuations on the recruitment of effector cells towards a tumor is studied by means of a stochastic mathematical model. Aggressively growing tumors are confronted against varying intensities of the cell-mediated immune response for which chaotic and periodic oscillations coexist together with stable tumor dynamics. A thorough parametric analysis of the noise-induced transition from this oscillatory regime to complete tumor dominance is carried out. A hysteresis phenomenon is uncovered, which stabilizes the tumor at its carrying capacity and drives the healthy and the immune cell populations to their extinction. Furthermore, it is shown that near a crisis bifurcation such transitions occur under weak noise intensities. Finally, the corresponding noise-induced chaos-order transformation is analyzed and discussed in detail.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
We show that the presence of KAM islands in nonhyperbolic chaotic scattering has deep implications on the unpredictability of open Hamiltonian systems. When the energy of the system increases the particles escape faster. For this reason the boundary of the exit basins becomes thinner and less fractal. Hence, we could expect a monotonous decrease in the unpredictability as well as in the fractal dimension. However, within the nonhyperbolic regime, fluctuations in the basin entropy have been uncovered. The reason is that when increasing the energy, both the size and geometry of the KAM islands undergo abrupt changes. These fluctuations do not appear within the hyperbolic regime. Hence, the fluctuations in the basin entropy allow us to ascertain the hyperbolic or nonhyperbolic nature of a system. In this manuscript we have used continuous and discrete open Hamiltonian systems in order to show the relevant role of the KAM islands on the unpredictability, and the utility of the basin entropy to analyze this kind of systems.

Nonlinear Sciences - Chaotic Dynamics - Abstract
The phenomenon of delay-induced resonance implies that in a nonlinear system a time-delay term may be used as an effective enhancer of the oscillations caused by an external forcing maintaining the same frequency. This is possible for the parameters for which the time-delay induces sustained oscillations. Here, we study this type of resonance in the overdamped and underdamped time-delayed Duffing oscillators, and we explore some new features. One of them is the conjugate phenomenon: the oscillations caused by the time-delay may be enhanced by means of the forcing without modifying their frequency. The resonance takes place when the frequency of the oscillations induced by the time-delay matches the ones caused by the forcing and vice versa. This is an interesting result as the nature of both perturbations is different. Even for the parameters for which the time-delay does not induce sustained oscillations, we show that a resonance may appear following a different mechanism.

Quantitative Biology - Populations and Evolution - Abstract
A multicompartment mathematical model is presented with the goal of studying the role of dose-dense protocols in the context of combination cancer chemotherapy. Dose-dense protocols aim at reducing the period between courses of chemotherapy from three to two weeks or less, in order to avoid the regrowth of the tumor during the meantime and achieve maximum cell kill at the end of the treatment. Inspired by clinical trials, we carry out a randomized computational study to systematically compare a variety of protocols using two drugs of different specificity. Our results suggest that cycle specific drugs can be administered at low doses between courses of treatment to arrest the relapse of the tumor. This might be a better strategy than reducing the period between cycles.
