Hénon’s dynamical system

This post will reproduce a three plots from a paper of Hénon on dynamical systems from 1969 [1]. Let α be a constant, and pick some starting point in the plane, (x0, y0), then update x and y according to xn+1 = xn cos α − (yn − xn²) sin α yn+1 = xn sin […] The post Hénon’s dynamical system first appeared on John D.
