Generating Shilnikov chaos in 3D piecewise linear systems

作者:

Highlights:

• Our method to construct chaotic piecewise linear systems with two variants: One with homoclinic and the other with heteroclinic chaos. Our construction algorithm combines hyperbolic and nonhyperbolic linear domains, e.g. focus-saddle and center-node.

• Unlike previous results our proposed method constructs homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits by combining focus-saddle and center-node linear domains by establishing crossing exit and return points on the switching surface based on the geometry of their stable and unstable eigenspaces.

• Is important to notice that by construction there is a large set of parameter values that satisfies the restriction our method for Shilnikov chaos.
