ERRATUM: Non-chaotic behaviour in three-dimensional quadratic systems

It is shown that three-dimensional dissipative quadratic systems of ordinary differential equations with a total of four terms on the right-hand side of the equations do not exhibit chaos. This complements recent work of Sprott who has given many examples of chaotic quadratic systems with as few as five terms on the right-hand side of the equations. PACS Number: 0545
