Geometry of complex instability in four-dimensional symplectic maps — •Jonas Stöber and Arnd Bäcker — TU Dresden, Institut für Theoretische Physik

In four-dimensional symplectic maps complex instability of periodic orbits is possible, which cannot occur for the two-dimensional case. We investigate the transition from stable to complex unstable dynamics of a fixed point under parameter variation. The change in the geometry of regular structures is visualized using three-dimensional phase-space slices and in frequency space using the example of two coupled standard maps. The chaotic dynamics is studied using escape time plots and two-dimensional invariant manifolds associated with the complex unstable fixed point. Based on a normal-form description, we investigate the underlying transport mechanism by visualizing the escape paths and the long-time confinement in the surrounding of the complex unstable fixed point.
