MEMRISTOR HAMILTONIAN CIRCUITS

We prove analytically that 2-element memristive circuits consisting of a passive linear inductor in parallel with a passive memristor, or an active memristive device, can be described explicitly by a Hamiltonian equation, whose solutions can be periodic or damped, and can be represented analytically by the constants of the motion along the circuit Hamiltonian. Generalizations to 3-element and 2N-element memristive Hamiltonian circuits are also presented where complex bifurcation phenomena including chaos, abound.
