TLDR
In this paper, a general theory of cascades for generic parametrized maps is presented, and it is shown that there is a close connection between the transition through innitely many cascades and the creation of a horseshoe.
Abstract
The appearance of numerous period-doubling cascades is among the most prominent features of parametrized maps, that is, smooth one-parameter families of maps F : R M ! M, where M is a smooth locally compact manifold without boundary, typically R N . Each cascade has innitely many period-doubling bifurcations, and it is typical to observe { such as in all the examples we investigate here { that whenever there are any cascades, there are innitely many cascades. We develop a general theory of cascades for generic F . We illustrate this theory with several examples. We show that there is a close connection between the transition through innitely many cascades and the creation of a horseshoe.

Replication of chaos

TL;DR: A rigorous method for replication of chaos from a prior one to systems with large dimensions is proposed and new definitions such as chaotic sets of functions, the generator and replicator of chaos, and precise description of ingredients for Devaney and Li-Yorke chaos in continuous dynamics are provided.

Global dynamics in a stage-structured discrete-time population model with harvesting

TL;DR: The range of parameters for which the population abundance gets larger in spite of an increase in the harvest rate is determined, and for which subsequent increases in harvesting effort can magnify fluctuations in population abundance.

The hydra effect, bubbles, and chaos in a simple discrete population model with constant effort harvesting

TL;DR: It is shown that the system displays chaotic behaviour under the combination of high per capita recruitment and small survivorship rates and the phenomenon of bubbling and the hydra effect, which means that the stock size gets larger as harvesting rate increases.

Connecting period-doubling cascades to chaos

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that often virtually all (i.e., all but finitely many) "regular" periodic orbits at μ2 are each connected to exactly one cascade by a path of regular periodic orbits; and virtually all cascades are either paired or solitary.

Connecting period-doubling cascades to chaos

TL;DR: The investigation of infinitely many cascades is essentially reduced to studying the regular periodic orbits of F(μ2, ⋅), which shows that often virtually all "regular" periodic orbits at μ2 are each connected to exactly one cascade by a path ofregular periodic orbits.

Iterated maps on the interval as dynamical systems

TL;DR: In this article, the Calculus of itineraries is used to describe the properties of one-parameter families of maps and the relative frequency of periodic and aperiodic behavior.

Biological Populations with Nonoverlapping Generations: Stable Points, Stable Cycles, and Chaos

TL;DR: This paper presents a dynamical regime in which (depending on the initial population value) cycles of any period, or even totally aperiodic but boundedpopulation fluctuations, can occur.

Topology from the differentiable viewpoint

John Milnor
TL;DR: The fundamental theorem of algebra and its application to smooth manifolds and smooth maps was proved by Sard and Brown as discussed by the authors, and the Brouwer degree modulo 2 of a mapping was shown to be equivalent to the Hopf theorem.

The universal metric properties of nonlinear transformations

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of functional equations to describe the exact local structure of highly bifurcated attractors is formally developed, and a hierarchy of universal functions, each descriptive of the same local structure but at levels of a cluster of 2>>\s points, is presented.

On iterated maps of the interval

TL;DR: In this paper, an effective calculus for describing the qualitative behavior of the successive iterates of a piecewise monotone mapping is presented, where each iteration has a local minimum or maximum.
