How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T23142606 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Target entity: Henon map Context triple: [chaos theory, coreExample, Henon map]
-
A.
Arnold cat map
The Arnold cat map is a famous example of a chaotic, area-preserving transformation on the torus that illustrates how simple deterministic rules can produce complex, seemingly random behavior.
-
B.
Lorenz attractor
The Lorenz attractor is a famous chaotic set arising from a simplified model of atmospheric convection, known for its butterfly-shaped trajectory and role as an early example of deterministic chaos in dynamical systems.
-
C.
Lyapunov fractal
The Lyapunov fractal is a complex, self-similar pattern arising from iterating logistic maps with periodically varying parameters, used to visualize stability and chaos in dynamical systems.
-
D.
Smale horseshoe
The Smale horseshoe is a fundamental example in dynamical systems theory that illustrates chaotic behavior through a specific stretching-and-folding map of a square into a horseshoe-shaped region.
-
E.
Poincaré map
The Poincaré map is a mathematical tool in dynamical systems theory that reduces continuous-time dynamics to a discrete map by tracking intersections of trajectories with a lower-dimensional surface.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
