Dynamical analysis of a new autonomous 3-D chaotic system only with stable equilibria

This paper presents a new 3-D autonomous chaotic system, which is topologically non-equivalent to the original Lorenz and all Lorenz-like systems. Of particular interest is that the chaotic system can generate double-scroll chaotic attractors in a very wide parameter domain with only two stable equilibria. The existence of singularly degenerate heteroclinic cycles for a suitable choice of the parameters is investigated. Periodic solutions and chaotic attractors can be found when these cycles disappear. Finally, the complicated dynamics are studied by virtue of theoretical analysis, numerical simulation and Lyapunov exponents spectrum. The obtained results clearly show that the chaotic system deserves further detailed investigation.
