We apply an analytical signal analysis to strange nonchaotic dynamics. Through this technique it is possible to obtain the spectrum of instantaneous intrinsic mode frequencies that are present in a given signal. We find that the second-mode frequency and its variance are good order parameters for dynamical transitions from quasiperiodic tori to strange nonchaotic attractors (SNAs) and from SNAs to chaotic attractors. Phase fluctuation analysis shows that SNAs and chaotic attractors behave identically within short time windows as a consequence of local instabilities in the dynamics. In longer time windows, however, the globally stable character of SNAs becomes apparent. This methodology can be of great utility in the analysis of experimental time series, and representative applications are made to signals obtained from Rössler and Duffing oscillators.

We discover strange nonchaotic attractor (SNA) through experiments in an unforced system comprising turbulent reactive flow. While models suggest SNAs are common in dynamical systems, experimental observations are primarily limited to systems with external forcing. We observe SNA prior to the emergence of periodic oscillations from chaotic fluctuations.

Considering a piecewise linear oscillator with quasiperiodic excitation, we uncover the route of double grazing bifurcation of quasiperiodic torus to strange nonchaotic attractors (i.e., SNAs).

Can strange sets arise out of quantum dynamics? We explore this question using the quantum analog of a classical impact oscillator, which consists of a forced spring-mass-damper system, with a wall it may collide against. The classical impact oscillator is known to undergo a sudden transition to chaos when the mass grazes the wall. We numerically compute the evolution of the wave function in the equivalent quantum system and investigate the dynamical signatures.

We explore the dynamics of a damped and driven Mathews-Lakshmanan oscillator type model with position-dependent mass term and report two distinct bifurcation routes to the advent of sudden, intermittent large-amplitude chaotic oscillations in the system. We characterize these infrequent and recurrent large oscillations as extreme events (EE) when they are significantly greater than the pre-defined threshold height. In the first bifurcation route, the system exhibits a bifurcation from quasiperiodic (QP) attractor to chaotic attractor via strange non-chaotic (SNA) attractor as a function of damping parameter.

Article Synopsis
- The colonization model highlights that various species can coexist through competition for habitable sites, based on how propagules encounter those sites.
- Traditional assumptions indicate that species distribution can reach an equilibrium state, but varying encounter processes reveal different dynamics.
- The study found that species frequencies show continuous variation and are influenced by initial conditions, resulting in unique patterns termed "strange nonchaotic attractors" (SNAs), suggesting complex competitiveness among species even in a stable environment.
