  • 2017 The Franklin Institute Given any finite family of real d-by-d nonsingular matrices {S1,,Sl} by extending the well-known LiYorke chaos of a deterministic nonlinear dynamical system to a discrete-time linear inclusion or hybrid or switched system: xn{Skxn1;1kl},x0Rdandn1we study the chaotic dynamics of the state trajectory (xn(x0, ))n 1 with initial state x0Rd governed by a switching law :N{1,,l}. Two sufficient conditions are given so that for a large set of switching laws , there exhibits the scrambled dynamics as follows: for all x0,y0Rd,x0y0 lim infn+xn(x0,)xn(y0,)=0andlim supn+xn(x0,)xn(y0,)=.This implies that there coexist positive, zero and negative Lyapunov exponents and that the trajectories (xn(x0, ))n 1 are extremely sensitive to the initial states x0Rd. We also show that a periodically stable linear inclusion system, which may be product unbounded, does not exhibit any such chaotic behavior. An explicit simple example shows the discontinuity of Lyapunov exponents with respect to the switching laws.
