henon: Henon map

In nonlinearAnalysis: R package for nonlinear time series analysis

Description

Generates a 2-dimensional time series using the Henon map.

Usage

  henon(start = runif(min = -0.5, max = 0.5, n = 2),
    a = 1.4, b = 0.3, n.sample = 5000, n.transient = 500,
    do.plot = TRUE)

Arguments

start	A 2-dimensional vector indicating the starting values for the x and y Henon coordinates. If the starting point is not specified, it is generated randomly.
a	The a parameter. Default: 1.4.
b	The b parameter. Default: 0.3.
n.sample	Length of the generated time series. Default: 5000 samples.
n.transient	Number of transient samples that will be discarded. Default: 500 samples.
do.plot	Logical value. If TRUE (default value), a plot of the generated Henon system is shown.

Details

The Henon map is defined as follows:

x[n] = 1 - a*x[n - 1]^2 + y[n - 1]

y[n] = b*x[n - 1].

The default selection for both a and b parameters (a=1.4 and b=0.3) is known to produce a deterministic chaotic time series.

Value

A list with two vectors named x and y containing the x-components and the y-components of the Henon map, respectively.

Note

Some initial values may lead to an unstable system that will tend to infinity.
