Abstract This paper investigates a logistic map derived from a difference equation in the framework of discrete fractional calculus. Through the Poincaré plots and Julia sets, the map’s chaotic and fractal characteristics are studied comparing with those of a quadratic map to be proposed. The memory effect of fractional difference maps is reflected in these dynamics, and some reasonable explanations are given by combining with quantitative analysis. A coupled controller is designed to realize synchronization between fractional difference logistic map and fractional difference quadratic map.

The logistic map is often cited as an archetypal example of complex and chaotic behavior that can arise from very simple nonlinear dynamical systems. Mathematically, its standard form is xn+1 = r xn (1 − xn ).

The map, popularized by the biologist May (cf. [1]), is a discrete-time form of the logistic equation

where x ∈ [0, 1], which is a standardized version of the demographic model created by Verhulst (cf. [2,3]). Since the end of the 20th century, the logistic map (1) and its various generalizations have aroused more and more concerns in the field of nonlinear science, especially chaos and fractals. With the flourishing of fractional system modeling from the beginning of this century, various forms of the fractionalization of the classic logistic map (cf. [4]) and equation (cf. [5]) gradually appeared and attracted the scholars’ attention. In 2012, Edelman introduced the notions of the Riemann-Liouville and Caputo αfamilies of maps and studied their dynamic behavior taking the fractional logistic map as an example (cf. [6]). It is found that the existence of the cascade of

In the last decade, discrete fractional calculus has increasingly become another research hotspot in mathematics besides conventional fractional calculus whose development is relatively mature. Various logistic-like equations with fractional difference operators have also begun to come into view and aroused widespread interest. In 2014, Wu et al. (cf. [8]) proposed a fractional difference equation (FDE, for short) as C
