In this article, sinusoidal functions are introduced to a discrete map for hyperchaos generation and attractor self-reproduction. The constructed map shares a unique structure with controllable symmetry and conditional symmetry, which exhibits compound lattice dynamics, including 1-D and 2-D attractor growth. The direction of attractor growth can be controlled under polarity balance. STM32-based circuit realization verifies the results with numerical simulation and theoretical analysis. A pseudorandom number generator is built finally based on the newly proposed hyperchaotic map proving the high performance in application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Due to the natural nonlinearity and unique memory characteristics, memristors are promising candidates for the construction of multiscroll attractors having better application potential in the field of information encryption than the traditional double-scroll attractors. This article proposes a novel memristive multidouble-scroll Chua’s system (MMDSCS) via coupling a nonideal flux-controlled memristor with multipiecewise-linear memductance function in Chua’s system directly. Specially, any number of multidouble-scroll chaotic attractors can be generated through adjusting the internal parameters of the memristor conveniently and without changing the original system’s nonlinearity. Moreover, the amount of double scrolls is also closely related to the strength of the memristive coupling. Another striking highlight is that infinite initial offset-boosted coexisting Chua’s double-scroll attractors with the same shape are produced with the variation of the memristor initial conditions, indicating the emergence of an intriguing phenomenon of homogeneous extreme multistability. This unique property and its formation mechanism are investigated in detail using phase portraits, bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents, time series, and attraction basins. Furthermore, hardware experiments based on the field-programmable gate array are carried out to confirm the numerical simulations. Finally, an image encryption scheme is designed based on the memristor initial offset boosting dynamics from a perspective of engineering application. In comparison with the existing memristive Chua’s systems, the proposed MMDSCS has many merits, such as multidouble-scroll attractors, memristor initial-controlled chaotic sequences with controllability, good robustness, and high security performance, which is more practical in applications involving information confidential communication.
