Kaplan–Yorke conjecture

In applied mathematics, the Kaplan–Yorke conjecture concerns the dimension of an attractor, using Lyapunov exponents.[1][2] By arranging the Lyapunov exponents in order from largest to smallest , let j be the largest index for which

and

Then the conjecture is that the dimension of the attractor is

This idea is used for the definition of the Lyapunov dimension.[3]

Examples

Especially for chaotic systems, the Kaplan–Yorke conjecture is a useful tool in order to estimate the fractal dimension and the Hausdorff dimension of the corresponding attractor.[4][3]

  • The Hénon map with parameters a = 1.4 and b = 0.3 has the ordered Lyapunov exponents and . In this case, we find j = 1 and the dimension formula reduces to
  • The Lorenz system shows chaotic behavior at the parameter values , and . The resulting Lyapunov exponents are {2.16, 0.00, −32.4}. Noting that j = 2, we find
