Abstract
- In this tutorial we continue our program of clarifying chaos by examining the relationship between chaotic and stochastic processes. To do this, we construct chaotic analogs of stochastic processes, stochastic differential equations, and discuss estimation and prediction models. The conclusion of this section is that from the composition of simple nonlinear periodic dynamical systems arise chaotic dynamical systems, and from the time-series of chaotic solutions of finite-difference and differential equations are formed chaotic processes, the analogs of stochastic processes. Chaotic processes are formed from chaotic dynamical systems in at least two ways. One is by the superposition of a large class of chaotic time-series. The second is through the compression of the time-scale of a chaotic time-series. As stochastic processes that arise from uniform random variables are not constructable, and chaotic processes are constructable, we conclude that chaotic processes are primary and that stochastic processes are idealizations of chaotic processes. Also, we begin to explore the relationship between the prime numbers and the possible role they may play in the formation of chaos. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
