In this framework the difference in control parameter from its value at the transition to chaos is the only relevant variable, the trivial fixed point is the Gaussian distribution and a nontrivial fixed point is a multifractal distribution with features similar to those of the Feigenbaum attractor. The crossover between the two fixed points is discussed and the flow toward the trivial fixed point is seen to consist of a sequence of chaotic band mergers.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-12-15T16:12:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "renormalization group fixed points", "marginally chaotic variables", "stationary distributions", "trivial fixed point", "novel renormalization group" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/1742-6596/201/1/012002", "journal": "Journal of Physics Conference Series", "year": 2010, "month": "Dec", "volume": 201, "number": 1, "pages": "012002" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010JPhCS.201a2002F" } } }
