Mem-systems, based on the Memory Circuit Elements (memristor, memcapacitor, and meminductor), have received significant attention after the realization of a solid-state memristor in the Hewlett-Packard laboratories in 2008. Various mem-systems have been reported in different fields, ranging from physics, biological models to engineering. In particular, mem-systems find potential applications in switching devices, bioinspired electronics, neural networks, memory elements, and so forth.

In the last few years, we have witnessed the rapid developments in investigating mem-systems such as theoretical models, complexity, chaos, fundamental fingerprints, numerical simulations, nonlinear properties, fabrication aspects, and experimentations. However, there are still different questions, which invite more discoveries in such systems.

The special issue aims at presenting and discussing advanced topics of mem-systems with complex dynamic behavior. We invite researchers to contribute research works that relate to the themes of this special issue.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

• Complexity of mem-systems
• Nonlinear dynamics, chaos, and complex networks
• Chaos control and synchronization of mem-systems
• Memristor theory, modeling, and simulation tools
• Analog and digital memristor-based circuits, systems, and architectures
• Neuromorphic systems and in-memory computing
• Realization and practical applications of mem-systems
