Abstract

Periodic trigonometric functions are introduced in 2-D offset-boostable chaotic flows to generate an infinite 2-D lattice of strange attractors. These 2-D offset-boostable chaotic systems are constructed based on standard jerk flows and extended to more general systems by exhaustive computer searching. Two regimes of multistability with a lattice of strange attractors are explored where the infinitely many attractors come from a 2-D offset-boostable chaotic system in cascade or in an interactive mode.
