Quantum chaos and dynamical systems

We investigate complex dynamic phenomena in arrays composed of interacting chaotic circuits. Such arrays can be thought of as a model of nonlinear phenomena in spatially extended (high-dimensional or infinite-dimensional) systems and active media with potential applications in signal processing. In this paper, we consider a particular structure of the network in which there exists double diffusive interactions between the cells. Such a double interaction can be considered as a paradigm and means for understanding very complex interactions existing in real systems where separate cells can communicate in various ways. We consider two basic cases where separate cells without coupling exhibit two different types of chaotic behavior. Depending on the connection structure, initial conditions imposed in the cells, the array exhibits various kinds of spatially ordered chaotic waves. Patterns of behavior depending on the excitation of the array and the connection structure are studied in this paper. Chua's circuits are taken as standard chaotic cells. >
