Domain of attraction of hysteresis-series based chaotic attractors

This paper discusses the domain of attraction and its sensitivity for a class of chaotic attractors generated by using second-order linear systems with hysteresis-series. It is found that the domain of attraction of the chaotic attractors is determined by an unstable limit cycle. The chaotic dynamical behaviors are demonstrated by using the Poincaré map. The sensitivity of the domain of attraction with respect to the system parameters is studied and some simulation results are presented. 1.
