摘要

This paper presents a novel unified hyperchaotic system that contains the hyperchaotic Lorenz system and the hyperchaotic Chen system as two dual systems at the two extremes of its parameter spectrum. The new system is hyperchaotic over almost the whole range of the system parameter and continuously transfers from the hyperchaotic Lorenz system to the hyperchaotic Chen system. The new findings are not only demonstrated by computer simulations but also verified with bifurcation analysis, Lyapunov exponents and Lyapunov dimension.
