摘要

This paper studies a new class of three-dimensional maps in a Jerk-like structure with a special concern of their hidden chaotic dynamics. Our investigation focuses on the hidden chaotic attractors in three typical scenarios of fixed points, namely no fixed point, single fixed point, and two fixed points. A systematic computer search is performed to explore possible hidden chaotic attractors, and a number of examples of the proposed maps are used for demonstration. Numerical results show that the routes to hidden chaotic attractors are complex, and the basins of attraction for the hidden chaotic attractors could be tiny, so that using the standard computational procedure for localization is impossible.
