TheDuffing map (also called as 'Holmes map') is adiscrete-timedynamical system. It is an example of a dynamical system that exhibitschaotic behavior. The Duffingmap takes a point (xn, yn) in theplane and maps it to a new point given by
The map depends on the twoconstantsa andb. These are usually set toa = 2.75 andb = 0.2 to produce chaotic behaviour. It is a discrete version of theDuffing equation.
