Zaslavskii map

The Zaslavskii map is a discrete-time dynamical system introduced by George M. Zaslavsky. It is an example of a dynamical system that exhibits chaotic behavior. The Zaslavskii map takes a point ( x n , y n ) in the plane and maps it to a new point:

x n + 1 = [ x n + ν ( 1 + μ y n ) + ϵ ν μ cos ( 2 π x n ) ] ( mod 1 ) y n + 1 = e r ( y n + ϵ cos ( 2 π x n ) )

and

μ = 1 e r r

where mod is the modulo operator with real arguments. The map depends on four constants ν, μ, ε and r. Russel (1980) gives a Hausdorff dimension of 1.39 but Grassberger (1983) questions this value based on their difficulties measuring the correlation dimension.
