Attractor bifurcation and on-off intermittency.
We analyze the bifurcation of an attractor in a system of multiplicatively coupled maps. It is shown that the phenomenon can be characterized by on-off intermittency and it is rigorously described by the on-off intermittency in the presence of noise through the concept of a virtually invariant manifold. Presenting numerical results which conform our claims, we elucidate the role of on-off intermittency in bifurcation phenomena.
