A Novel Hyperchaotic System Derived from Asymmetric Bidirectional Coupling of Two Lorenz Oscillators: Synchronization Analysis and Cryptographic Applications

Abstract

This paper investigates a six-dimensional coupled Lorenz system obtained through bidirectional asymmetric diffusive coupling of two identical Lorenz oscillators. The proposed model is analyzed from both dynamical and synchronization perspectives. Dissipativity conditions, equilibrium points, local stability properties, and Lyapunov spectra are systematically examined. The results reveal wide regions of chaotic and hyperchaotic behavior, with up to three positive Lyapunov exponents depending on the coupling parameters. These findings provide a practical framework for selecting coupling configurations that guarantee hyperchaotic dynamics while preserving the simplicity of the classical Lorenz structure. \\ A Lyapunov-based synchronization analysis is then developed. By exploiting effective attractor bounds obtained from the actual system trajectories rather than conservative worst-case estimates, a less restrictive sufficient synchronization condition is derived. Under the classical Lorenz parameters, synchronization is guaranteed for $α_1+α_2>15.1$. \\ The synchronization performance is further evaluated through a parametric analysis of the synchronization time. Numerical results show that increasing the coupling strength significantly accelerates convergence toward the synchronization manifold. For a broad range of admissible coupling values, synchronization times below $0.5$ second are achieved, whereas previously reported Lorenz-based synchronization schemes typically require approximately $5$ seconds.

When is a System Discoverable from Data? Discovery Requires Chaos

The deep learning revolution has enabled major AI advances in physical sciences, particularly in discovering dynamical systems from observational data. Yet the reliability of learned surrogates and symbolically discovered models is often undermined by non-uniqueness: models may fit observed trajectories perfectly, but lack genuine predictive power. We show that chaos, despite its association with unpredictability, is often what makes governing equations discoverable. We prove that the classical Lorenz system is analytically discoverable and verify experimentally that for many systems out-of-domain generalization emerges precisely at chaos onset. Conservative systems, by contrast, are inherently non-discoverable from data alone. The prevalence of chaotic systems in benchmarks may have inadvertently obscured this limitation. These findings help explain why AI excels at weather forecasting, yet struggles in many engineering applications: the systems most amenable to discovery (chaotic ones) are often least amenable to control.

Foliations and minimality for twist maps

In this paper we consider area-preserving twist maps $f:\mathbf{T}^2\to\mathbf{T}^2$ with vertical rotation sets reduced to a single irrational number $α$. Our first result states that under these hypotheses, there exists a unique $f$-invariant foliation $\mathcal{F}_G=\{\operatorname{Graph}(ϕ_t)\}_{t\in\mathbf{T}^1}$, where each function $ϕ_t:\mathbf{T}^1\to\mathbf{T}^1$ is $K$-Lipschitz for some constant $K=K(f)$. Moreover, we also prove that if $\mathcal{F}_G$ is a Lipschitz foliation, then $f$ is minimal.

Uniqueness of Limit Cycles for Abel Equations and Planar Systems

We study positive limit cycles of the Abel equation $$\dot{x}=A(t)x^{3}+B(t)x^{2},$$ where $A$ and $B$ are $2π$-periodic functions. By developing a half-period convexity method, we establish a new criterion ensuring that the equation has at most one positive limit cycle. Moreover, if such a limit cycle exists, it is hyperbolic. As applications, we consider two classes of planar polynomial systems that can be reduced to Abel equations. For a subfamily of cubic rigid systems, we prove that there is at most one limit cycle, thereby giving a partial answer to the first problem in Gasull's list of 33 open problems. For quadratic systems, we derive a new uniqueness criterion for limit cycles surrounding the origin and provide explicit parameter regions under which the criterion is satisfied.
