Coexisting three-scroll and four-scroll chaotic attractors in a fractional-order system by a three-scroll integer-order memristive chaotic system and chaos control (Q2290949)

Summary: Based on the integer-order memristive system that can generate two-scroll, three-scroll, and four-scroll chaotic attractors, in this paper, we found other phenomena that two kinds of three-scroll chaotic attractors coexist in this system with different initial conditions. Furthermore, we proposed a coexisting fractional-order system based on the three-scroll chaotic attractors system, in which the three-scroll or four-scroll chaotic attractors emerged with different fractional-orders \(q\). Meanwhile, with fractional-order \(q = 0.965\) and different initial conditions, coexistence of two kinds of three-scroll and four-scroll chaotic attractors is found simultaneously. Finally, we discussed controlling chaos for the fractional-order memristive chaotic system.
