✦ Synopsis
The origin of log-periodic oscillations around the power-law trend of the escape probability from a precritical attractor and of the noise-free stochastic multiresonance, found in numerical simulations in chaotic systems close to crises is discussed. It is shown that multiple maxima of the spectral power amplification vs. the control parameter result from a fractal structure of a precritical attractor colliding with a possibly fractal basin of attraction at the crisis point. Qualitative explanation of the multiresonance, based on a concept of fractal self-similarity, or discrete-scale invariance, is given and compared with numerical results and analytic theory using a simple geometric models of the colliding fractal sets.
