An Analytical Study of Bifurcations Generated by Some Iterated Function Systems

In a recent paper Bahar [Chaos, Solitons + Fractals, 1996, 7(1), 41] described bifurcation from a fixed point generated by iterated function systems. An analytical study of it, by using Banach theorem, was proposed by us in Chaos, Solitons + Fractals, 1998, 9(3), 449. In this paper we present an extension of our previous study and we prove that by a special transformation, the considered two-dimensional map can be reduced to two distinctive one-dimensional maps, such that each one determines the behavior of the entire system.© 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
