Topological analysis of chaotic time series data from the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction

SummaryWe have applied topological methods to analyze chaotic time series data from the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction. First, the periodic orbits shadowed by the data set were identified. Next, a three-dimensional embedding without self-intersections was constructed from the data set. The topological structure of that flow was visualized by constructing a branched manifold such that every periodic orbit in the flow could be held by the branched manifold. The branched manifold, or induced template, was computed using the three lowest-period orbits. The organization of the higher-period orbits predicted by this induced template was compared with the organization of the orbits reconstructed from the data set with excellent results. The consequences of the presence of certain knots found in the data are discussed.
