Local and global control of high-period unstable orbits in reversible maps.
We study the nonlinear dynamics of a complex system, described by a two-dimensional reversible map. The phase space of this map exhibits elements typical of Hamiltonian systems (stability islands) as well as of dissipative systems (attractor). Due to the interaction between the stability islands and the attractor, the transition to chaos in this system occurs through the collapse of the stability island and stochastization of the limiting-cycles orbits. We show how to apply the method of discrete parametric control to stabilize unstable high-period orbits. To achieve highly efficient control we introduce the concepts of local and global control. These concepts are useful in situations where there are "dangerous" points on the target orbit, i.e., the points where the probability of breakdown of control is high. As a result, the dangerous points turn out to be much more sensitive to external noise than other points on the orbit, and only the dangerous points determine how effective the control is.
