Chaotic dynamics exists in many natural systems, such as weather and climate, and there are many applications in different disciplines. However, there are few research results about chaotic conservative systems especially the smooth hyperchaotic conservative system in both theory and application. This paper proposes a five-dimensional (5D) smooth autonomous hyperchaotic system with nonhyperbolic fixed points. Although the proposed system includes four linear terms and four quadratic terms, the new system shows complicated dynamics which has been proven by the theoretical analysis. Several notable properties related to conservative systems and the existence of perpetual points are investigated for the proposed system. Moreover, its conservative hyperchaotic behavior is illustrated by numerical techniques including phase portraits and Lyapunov exponents.
This paper proposes a class of nonlinear systems and presents one example system to illustrate its interesting dynamics, including quasiperiodic motion and chaos. It is found that the example system is a subsystem of a non-Hamiltonian system, which has a continuous curve of equilibria with time-reversal symmetry. In this study, the dynamical evolution of the example system with three different kinds of external excitations are fully investigated by using general chaotic analysis methods such as Poincaré sections, phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents and bifurcation diagrams. Both theoretical analysis and numerical simulations show that the example system is nonconservative but has conservative chaotic flows, which are numerically verified by the sum of its Lyapunov exponents. It is also found that the example system has time-reversal symmetry.
