Initial-switched boosting bifurcations in 2D hyperchaotic map.

Abstract

Recently, the coexistence of initial-boosting attractors in continuous-time systems has been attracting more attention. How do you implement the coexistence of initial-boosting attractors in a discrete-time map? To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel two-dimensional (2D) hyperchaotic map with a simple algebraic structure. The 2D hyperchaotic map has two special cases of line and no fixed points. The parameter-dependent and initial-boosting bifurcations for these two cases of line and no fixed points are investigated by employing several numerical methods. The simulated results indicate that complex dynamical behaviors including hyperchaos, chaos, and period are closely related to the control parameter and initial conditions. Particularly, the boosting bifurcations of the 2D hyperchaotic map are switched by one of its initial conditions. The distinct property allows the dynamic amplitudes of hyperchaotic/chaotic sequences to be controlled by switching the initial condition, which is especially suitable for chaos-based engineering applications. Besides, a microcontroller-based hardware platform is developed to confirm the generation of initial-switched boosting hyperchaos/chaos.
