We report numerical results on the existence of periodic structures embedded in chaotic and hyperchaotic regions on the Lyapunov exponent diagrams of a 4-dimensional Chua system. The model was obtained from the 3-dimensional Chua system by the introduction of a feedback controller. Both the largest and the second largest Lyapunov exponents were considered in our colorful Lyapunov exponent diagrams, and allowed us to characterize periodic structures and regions of chaos and hyperchaos. The shrimp-shaped periodic structures appear to be malformed on some of Lyapunov exponent diagrams, and they present two different bifurcation scenarios to chaos when passing the boundaries of itself, namely via period-doubling and crisis. Hyperchaos-chaos transition can also be observed on the Lyapunov exponent diagrams for the second largest exponent.
In this paper we investigate three two-dimensional parameter spaces of a three-parameter set of autonomous differential equations used to model the Chua oscillator, where the piecewise-linear function usually taken to describe the nonlinearity of the Chua diode has been replaced by a cubic polynomial. It is made by using three independent two-dimensional cross sections of the three-dimensional parameter space generated by the model, which contains three parameters. We show that, independent of the parameter set considered in plots, all the diagrams present periodic structures embedded in a large chaotic region, and we also show that these structures organize themselves in period-adding cascades. We argue that these selected two-dimensional cross sections can be representative of the three-dimensional parameter space as a whole, in the range of parameters here investigated.
We report results of a numerical investigation on a two-dimensional cross-section of the parameter-space of a set of three autonomous, eight-parameter, first-order ordinary differential equations, which models tumor growth. The model considers interaction between tumor cells, healthy tissue cells, and activated immune system cells. By using Lyapunov exponents to characterize the dynamics of the model in a particular parameter plane, we show that it presents typical self-organized periodic structures embedded in a chaotic region, that were before detected in other models. We show that these structures organize themselves in two independent ways: (i) as spirals that coil up toward a focal point while undergoing period-adding bifurcations and, (ii) as a sequence with a well-defined law of formation, constituted by two mixed period-adding bifurcation cascades.
