In this Letter, we study the popular parametric variation chaos control and state-feedback methodologies in chaos control, and point out for the first time that they are actually equivalent in the sense that there exist diffeomorphisms that can convert one to the other for most smooth chaotic systems. Detailed conversions are worked out for typical discrete chaotic maps (logistic, Hénon) and continuous flows (Rösller, Lorenz) for illustration. This unifies the two seemingly different approaches from the physics and the engineering communities on chaos control. This new perspective reveals some new potential applications such as chaos synchronization and normal form analysis from a unified mathematical point of view.
