Bifurcation analysis of a discrete-time four-dimensional cubic autocatalator chemical reaction model with coupling through uncatalysed reactant

Abstract

In this manuscript, we discuss a four-dimensional cubic autocatalator chemical reaction model in continuous form. We investigate the existence of one and only positive fixed point and then we have obtained some parametric conditions for local stability of continuous system by using Routh-Hurwitz stability criteria. Moreover, we discretize the four-dimensional continuous cubic autocatalator chemical reaction model by using Euler’s forward method and then by using a nonstandard difference scheme we obtained a consistent discrete-time counterpart of four-dimensional cubic autocatalator chemical reaction model. Parametric conditions for local asymptotic stability of one and only positive fixed point of obtained system are also discussed. It is shown that the obtained system experiences the Neimark-Sacker bifurcation at one and only positive fixed point by using a general standard for Neimark-Sacker bifurcation. The discrete-time counterpart of genuine four-dimensional system displays chaotic dynamics at different standards of bifurcation parameter. Furthermore, the control of Neimark-Sacker bifurcation and chaos is also deliberated by using a generalized hybrid control scheme, which is based on parameter perturbation and feedback control. Finally, some numerical examples are given to strengthen our theoretical results.
