SprottDelay¶

Systems / DDEs / Delayed systems

A minimal scalar delay equation engineered for chaos from one nonlinear term.

delay · DDE1 dimensionchaotic

Interactive: drag to rotate

Definition¶

\[ \begin{aligned} \dot{y_{0}} &= \sin{\left(y_{0}{\left(t - \tau \right)} \right)} \end{aligned} \]

Parameters¶

Symbol	Default	Role
`tau`	`5.1`	feedback delay

Properties¶

Lyapunov spectrum

TODO — DDE Lyapunov not computed at build time

Kaplan–Yorke dimension

TODO — requires a numeric Lyapunov spectrum

Divergence ∇·f

$\nabla\!\cdot f = 0$
constant

Equilibria

TODO — fixed_points failed: NotImplementedError

Define it in TSDynamics¶

import tsdynamics as ts

sys = ts.systems.SprottDelay()
traj = sys.integrate(final_time=500.0, dt=0.5)

# DDE Lyapunov uses the infinite-dimensional-history estimator:
exps = sys.lyapunov_spectrum(n_exp=1, dt=0.5, ic=traj.y[-1])
