Polarity balance, controlled by absolute value and signum functions, is crucial for managing chaotic systems and achieving attractor self-reproduction in nonlinear dynamics.
Area of Science:
- Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos Theory
- Complex Systems Analysis
- Engineering Applications in Circuits and Chemical Processes
Background:
- Nonlinear dynamical systems exhibit complex chaotic manifolds with unique geometric and physical properties.
- System attractors possess characteristics like granularity, orientation, and spatiotemporal distribution.
- Polarity balance is a critical factor influencing system solutions, including symmetrization, attractor merging, and self-reproduction.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the role of polarity balance in controlling attractor distribution within nonlinear dynamical systems.
- To explore how absolute value and signum functions regulate polarity balance for attractor management.
- To understand the mechanism of attractor self-reproducing for constructing multistability.
Main Methods:
- Utilizing absolute value and signum functions to manage and control polarity balance.
- Investigating the switching dynamics of polarity balances to regulate attractor distribution.
- Analyzing the conditions and mechanisms for attractor self-reproducing and offset boosting.
Main Results:
- Demonstrated that polarity balance, regulated by specific functions, strictly controls attractor distribution.
- Identified attractor self-reproducing as a key regime for achieving desired multistability.
- Showcased the necessity of polarity controllers for restoring imbalanced polarity in attractor offset boosting.
Conclusions:
