Wei, Zhouchao Dynamical behaviors of a chaotic system with no equilibria. (English) Zbl 1255.37013 Phys. Lett., A 376, No. 2, 102-108 (2011). Summary: Based on the Sprott D system, a simple three-dimensional autonomous system with no equilibria is reported. The remarkable particularity of the system is that there exists a constant controller, which can adjust the type of chaotic attractors. It is demonstrated to be chaotic in the sense of having a positive largest Lyapunov exponent and fractional dimension. To further understand the complex dynamics of the system, some basic properties such as Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagram, Poincaré mapping and period-doubling route to chaos are analyzed with careful numerical simulations.
