In this chapter the extension of chaos in difference equations is discussed. The theoretical results are based on chaos in the sense of Devaney and period-doubling cascades. The existence of homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits is rigorously proved, and a theoretical control technique for the extended chaos is proposed. The results are supported with the aid of simulations. Arbitrarily high-dimensional chaotic discrete-time dynamical systems can be designed by means of the presented technique. A discrete gonorrhea model is utilized to generate chaotic behavior in population dynamics.
