ABSTRACT

We study chaotic phase synchronization of unidirectionally coupled deterministic chaotic ratchets. The coupled ratchets were simulated in their chaotic states and perfect phase locking was observed as the coupling was gradually increased. We identified the region of phase synchronization for the ratchets and show that the transition to chaotic phase synchronization is via an interior crisis transition to strange attractor in the phase space.

  We show that under suitable assumptions, Poincar� recurrences of a dynamical system determine its topology in phase space. Therefore, dynamical systems with the same recurrences are dynamically equivalent. This conclusion can be drawn from a theorem proved in this paper which states that the...
