Chaotic Algorithms

Links

• Paul Bourke's web page -- this is the page with the cornucopia of chaotic equations, fractals, attractors, etc. Down at the bottom is an imbedded menu with a "Go to:" button next to it. Check out the links under the "Geometry" heading.
• older class link -- patches using the "population equation" and showing the Lorenz and Henon attractors
• older class link -- more attractor patches, a nice build-up of the "population equation" and the Lorenz attractors. Also the javascript code for Luke's attractor patch
• Strange Attractors -- pdf of the book by Julien Sprott that Luke used for his attractor patch; lots of fun math here
• older class link -- check out the 'lorenzo' patches; a more involved Lorenz attractor example (this was the one that used jitter and an acoustic input to traverse the attractor path)

Applications and Examples

• simplequad.sit
• simplequad.tar
  the patches using the simple quadratic equation we did in class
