Chaos in the Fractional Order Logistic Delay System

In this paper, we study the chaotic behaviors in a fractional order logistic delay system. We find that chaos exists in the fractional order logistic delay system with an order being less than 1. In addition, we numerically simulate the continuances of the chaotic behaviors in the logistic delay system with orders from 0.1 to 0.9. The lowest order we find to have chaos in this system is 0.1. Then we further investigate two methods in controlling the fractional order chaotic logistic delay system based on feedback. Finally, we investigate a lag synchronization scheme in this system. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness and feasibility of our approach.
