Circle MapA 1-D Map which maps a Circle onto itself

where is computed mod 1. Note that the circle map has two parameters: and . can beinterpreted as an externally applied frequency, and as a strength of nonlinearity. The 1-D Jacobian is

so the circle map is not Area-Preserving. It is related to the Standard Map
for and computed mod 1. Writing as

gives the circle map with = and . The unperturbed circle map has the form

If is Rational, then it is known as the map Winding Number, defined by

and implies a periodic trajectory, since will return to the same point (at most) every Orbits. If is Irrational, then the motion is quasiperiodic. If is Nonzero,then the motion may be periodic in some finite region surrounding each Rational . Thisexecution of periodic motion in response to an Irrational forcing is known as ModeLocking.
If a plot is made of vs. with the regions of periodic Mode-Locked parameter spaceplotted around Rational values (Winding Numbers), then the regions are seen to widen upward from 0 at tosome finite width at . The region surrounding each Rational Number is known as an Arnold Tongue. At , the Arnold Tongues are an isolated set of Measure zero. At , they form aCantor Set of Dimension . For , the tongues overlap, and the circle map becomesnoninvertible. The circle map has a Feigenbaum Constant
