This paper investigates a simple memristor emulator consisting of a diode bridge and a capacitor. It exhibits pinched hysteresis loops, and what is more striking is the higher frequency, as it operates up to greater than 5 MHz. Based on the proposed memristor, a higher-frequency Colpitts circuit was established. According to the mathematical model of the system, the system only possesses one unstable equilibrium point. Period doubling bifurcation, reverse periodic doubling bifurcation, different types of periodic and chaotic orbits, transient chaos, coexisting bifurcations and offset boosting are depicted. More interestingly, it has coexisting multiple attractors with different topologies, such as a chaotic attractor accompanied with periodic orbits, period-1 orbits with bicuspid structure and periodic-2 orbits with tridentate structure. Moreover, a hardware circuit using discrete components was fabricated and experimental measurements were consistent with the MATLAB numerical results, further confirming the real feasibility of the proposed circuit.

This paper investigates the asymptotic synchronization of memristive Cohen-Grossberg neural networks (MCGNNs) with time-varying delays under event-triggered control (ETC). First, based on the designed feedback controller, some ETC conditions are provided. It is demonstrated that ETC can significantly reduce the update times of the controller and decrease the computing cost. Next, some sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the asymptotic synchronization of MCGNNs with time-varying delays under the ETC method. Finally, a numerical example is provided to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the obtained results.

The paper proposes a time-delayed hyperchaotic system composed of multiscroll attractors with multiple positive Lyapunov exponents (LEs), which are described by a three-order nonlinear retarded type delay differential equation (DDE). The dynamical characteristics of the time-delayed system are far more complicated than those of the original system without time delay. The three-order time-delayed system not only generates hyperchaotic attractors with multiscroll but also has multiple positive LEs. We observe that the number of positive LEs increases with increasing time delay. Through numerical simulations, the time-delayed system exhibits a larger number of scrolls than the original system without time delay. Moreover, different numbers of scrolls with variable delay and coexistence of multiple attractors with a variable number of scrolls are also observed in the time-delayed system. Finally, we setup electronic circuit of the proposed system, and make Pspice simulations to it. The Pspice simulation results agree well with the numerical results.
