Two weakly linked oscillators interaction may be described by normal form

Here tex2html_wrap_inline2926 are amplitudes of near to harmonic oscillators and tex2html_wrap_inline2928 is phase difference. The parameters tex2html_wrap_inline2930 characterize oscillators and tex2html_wrap_inline2932 define linkage between them. This problem has non-trivial meaning only if tex2html_wrap_inline2934 . All possible bifurcations of dynamic system (1) have been defined. The decrease of linkage parameter d implies instability of synchronous regime tex2html_wrap_inline2938 and complicate regimes may bifurcate.

There exist wide area of parameters where the system (1) demonstrates chaotic behavior. There occurs a bifurcations cascade of strange attractors while linkage parameter d increase. It is similar to doubling period cascade. At each stage of such cascade we have:

  1. Stable self-symmetrical cycle loses symmetry and bifurcates into a pair of mutually-symmetrical cycles;
  2. For each of these cycles we have usual doubling period bifurcation cascade, generating a pair of chaotic mutually-symmetrical attractors;
  3. These attractors are transformed into one self-symmetrical chaotic attractor;
  4. It collapse into stable self-symmetrical cycle. This cycle have a period near doubled relatively to the initial cycle.

Further the process is repeated. This cascade implies the birth of chaotic attractor of higher Liapunov's dimension. Further increase of linkage parameter leads to separatrixes splitting bifurcation and chaotic attractor disappears.
