Transition to chaos in nonlinear dynamical systems through a subharmonic cascade of bifurcations of two-dimensional tori (Q1779889)

Taking as an example the complex system of the Lorenz equations, the authors show that in complicated nonlinear systems described by differential equations, a passage to chaos after generation of a two-dimensional torus \(\mathbb T^2\) can take place not only via generation of a three-dimensional torus \(\mathbb T^3\) and its subsequent destruction, but also through a subharmonic cascade of bifurcations of two-dimensional tori.
