ABC (Adventures in Bifurcations and Chaos): A program for studying chaos (Q1899755)

A software (called ABC) and its documentation is presented to compute and to visualize trajectories of Chua's circuit (a 3D-autonomous system). The study of chaos is limited to the numerical computation of trajectories by a Runge-Kutta method (without stepsize control) for certain parameters for which chaotic behavior is reported. Additional, equilibria and their eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be computed also. The software includes an extensive database of sets of initial conditions and parameters which produce interesting dynamical behavior. No comparison with other existing software packages is given.
