I am dealing with some 3-D flows which I suspect are chaotic.
Can someone investigate the following three systems and tell me if they are really chaotic (and bounded, not chaotic in transient and unbounded) for sure?
Thank you
Case A:
x' = z
y’ = y-xz
z’ = -z +xy +0.1yz
Case B:
x' = y
y’ = z
z’ = -4y +x^2-1
Case C:
x' = y
y’ = z
z’ = -x -2y -y^2 +2xy -yz
-------------------------------------------------
Some points:
1. All the cases are conservative and dealing with them is more difficult than usual dissipative cases.
2. Parameters are in the most elegant form. I don’t mean finding chaos with varying the parameters. The only variables here are the initial conditions.
3. With OUR CALCULATIONS, they all have positive largest Lyapunov exponent.
