BEHAVIOR PATTERNS IN MULTIPARAMETRIC DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS: LORENZ MODEL
Abstract
In experimental and theoretical studies of Dynamical Systems, there are usually several parameters that govern the models. Thus, a detailed study of the global parametric phase space is not easy and normally unachievable. In this paper, we show that a careful selection of one straight line (or other 1D manifold) permits us to obtain a global idea of the evolution of the system in some circumstances. We illustrate this fact with the paradigmatic example of the Lorenz model, based on a global study, changing all three parameters. Besides, searching in other regions, for all the detected behavior patterns in one straight line, we have been able to see that missing topological structures of the chaotic attractors may be found on the chaotic-saddles.
