Control of Chaos
Given a chaotic system, it is often desired that chaos be avoided or modified for the system to be optimized with respect to some performance criterion. The speakers will address the question on how can a desired behavior be achieved by making only small controlling perturbations on a chaotic system. Controlled chaotic systems offer the advantage in flexibility in that anyone of a number of different behaviors, chaotic or not, can be stabilized by the small control, and the choice can be switched from one to another depending on the current desired system performance. Relevant theoretical and experimental applications to the sciences and engineering will be presented.
