Chapter 12.2, Problem 9E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

For the Henon map T, taking standard values of the parameter a =1.4, b = 0.3:

  1. To plot Q and its image T(Q). Here, Q is the quadrilateral with vertices (1.33,0.42),(1.32,0.133),(1.245,0.14),(1.06,0.5)

  2. To prove that T(Q) is contained in Q.

Concept Introduction:

  • The equations for the Henon map are as follows:-

    xn+1= yn+1axn2yn+1=bxn

    Here a and b are adjustable parameters.

  • The properties of Henon map are:

    1. It is invertible.

    2. It is dissipative.

    3. For certain parameter values, it has a trapping region.

    4. Some trajectories of it may escape to infinity.

  • The first transformation is:-

    T': x' = x, y' =1+yax2

    The second transformation is:-

    T'': x'' = bx', y'' = y'

    The third transformation is:-

    T''': x''' = y'', y''' = x''

    The composite transformation T = T''' T'' T' gives the Henon mapping using notation (xn,yn) for (x,y) and (xn+1,yn+1) for (x''',y''').
