文摘Projective synchronization problems of a drive system and a particular response network were investigated,where the drive system is an arbitrary system with n+1 dimensions;it may be a linear or nonlinear system,and even a chaotic or hyperchaotic system,the response network is complex system coupled by N nodes,and every node is showed by the approximately linear part of the drive system.Only controlling any one node of the response network by designed controller can achieve the projective synchronization.Some numerical examples were employed to verify the effectiveness and correctness of the designed controller.
文摘The dynamics of chaotic memristor-based systems offer promising potential for secure communication.However,existing solutions frequently suffer from drawbacks such as slow synchronization,low key diversity,and poor noise resistance.To overcome these issues,a novel fractional-order chaotic system incorporating a memristor emulator derived from the Shinriki oscillator is proposed.The main contribution lies in the enhanced dynamic complexity and flexibility of the proposed architecture,making it suitable for cryptographic applications.Furthermore,the feasibility of synchronization to ensure secure data transmission is demonstrated through the validation of two strategies:an active control method ensuring asymptotic convergence,and a finite-time control method enabling faster stabilization.The robustness of the scheme is confirmed by simulation results on a color image:χ^(2)=253/237/267(R/G/B);entropy≈7.993;correlations between adjacent pixels in all directions are close to zero(e.g.,-0.0318 vertically);and high number of pixel change rate and unified average changing intensity(e.g.,33.40%and 99.61%,respectively).Peak signal-to-noise ratio analysis shows that resilience to noise and external disturbances is maintained.It is shown that multiple fractional orders further enrich the chaotic behavior,increasing the systems suitability for secure communication in embedded environments.These findings highlight the relevance of fractional-order chaotic memristive systems for lightweight secure transmission applications.

文摘Recently,large-scale trapped ion systems have been realized in experiments for quantum simulation and quantum computation.They are the simplest systems for dynamical stability and parametric resonance.In this model,the Mathieu equation plays the most fundamental role for us to understand the stability and instability of a single ion.In this work,we investigate the dynamics of trapped ions with the Coulomb interaction based on the Hamiltonian equation.We show that the many-body interaction will not influence the phase diagram for instability.Then,the dynamics of this model in the large damping limit will also be analytically calculated using few trapped ions.Furthermore,we find that in the presence of modulation,synchronization dynamics can be observed,showing an exchange of velocities between distant ions on the left side and on the right side of the trap.These dynamics resemble that of the exchange of velocities in Newton's cradle for the collision of balls at the same time.These dynamics are independent of their initial conditions and the number of ions.As a unique feature of the interacting Mathieu equation,we hope this behavior,which leads to a quasi-periodic solution,can be measured in current experimental systems.Finally,we have also discussed the effect of anharmonic trapping potential,showing the desynchronization during the collision process.It is hoped that the dynamics in this many-body Mathieu equation with damping may find applications in quantum simulations.This model may also find interesting applications in dynamics systems as a pure mathematical problem,which may be beyond the results in the Floquet theorem.
