Construction of analytic solution to chaotic dynamical systems using the Homotopy analysis method

Based on a new kind of analytic method, namely the Homotopy analysis method, an analytic approach to solve non-linear, chaotic system of ordinary differential equations is presented. The method is applied to Lorenz system; this system depends on the three parameters: σ, b and the so-called bifurcation parameter R are real constants. Two cases are considered. The first case is when R = 20.5 which corresponds to the transition region and the second case corresponds to R = 23.5 which corresponds to the chaotic region.The validity of the method is verified by comparing the approximation series solution with the results obtained using the standard numerical techniques such as Runge-Kutta method.
