Strange attractors and chaotic motions of dynamical systems

Ott, Edward·1981·Reviews of Modern Physics

Abstract

A review is presented of recent work related to strange attractors and chaotic motions of dynamical systems. First, simple systems capable of displaying chaotic behavior are discussed. In order of increasing dimensionality of the system, they are one-dimensional noninvertible maps, two-dimensional invertible maps, and autonomous systems of three coupled ordinary differential equations. The concept of fractional dimension of the strange attractor is stressed. Several physical examples well be reviewed, along with the possible relevance to turbulence in systems, such as fluids or plasmas, that are described by partial differential equations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
