Horseshoes in chromosome’s attractors

In this paper, we study dynamics of a class of chromosome’s attractors. We show that these chromosome sequences are chaotic by giving a rigorous verification for existence of horseshoes in these systems. We prove that the Poincaré maps derived from these chromosome’s attractors are semi-conjugate to the 2-shift map, and its entropy is no less than log 2. The chaotic behavior is robust in the following sense: chaos exists when one parameter varies from −5.5148 to −5.4988.
