Abstract
This paper reviews complex dynamics which arise through the interaction of simple nonlinear elements without chaotic response, including self-induced switching among local attractors (chaotic itinerancy) and related phenomena. Several realistic physical systems consisting of coupled nonlinear elements are considered on the basis of computer experiments: coupled nonlinear oscillator (e.g., discrete complex time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation) systems, coupled laser arrays, and a coupled multistable optical chain model.
