Abstract

In this paper we present a uniform way to derive families of maps from the corresponding differential equations describing systems which experience periodic kicks. The families depend on a single parameter - the order of a differential equation α > 0. We investigate general properties of such families and how they vary with the increase in α which represents increase in the space dimension and the memory of a system (increase in the weight of the earlier states). To demonstrate general properties of the α -families we use examples from physics (Standard α -Family of Maps) and population biology (Logistic α -Family of Maps). We show that with the increase in α systems demonstrate more complex and chaotic behavior.
