Definition

\[ \begin{aligned} \dot{y_{0}} &= 3 \gamma \mu y_{0} - \gamma y_{0}^{3} + \gamma y_{1} \\ \dot{y_{1}} &= \beta - 2 \mu y_{0} - y_{1} - y_{2} \\ \dot{y_{2}} &= \kappa y_{0} - \kappa y_{2} \end{aligned} \]

Define it in TSDynamics

import tsdynamics as ts

sys = ts.systems.KawczynskiStrizhak()
traj = sys.integrate(final_time=100.0, dt=0.01)

exps = sys.lyapunov_spectrum()
ts.kaplan_yorke_dimension(exps)
