Chaos Theory


Chaos theory comes in three flavors: flows, cascades, and iterations.
In each case, the basic concepts of chaos theory are:
  • Attractors, Basins, and Boundaries
  • Bifurcations and Response Diagrams
We focus here on the classic Lorenz attractor, illustrating the basic ideas in the context of a three-dimensional flow.
