Hidden chaotic attractors in fractional-order systems

In this paper, we present a scheme for uncovering hidden chaotic attrac- tors in nonlinear autonomous systems of fractional order. The stability of equilibria of fractional-order systems is analyzed. The underlying initial value problem is nu- merically integrated with the predictor-corrector Adams-Bashforth-Moulton algo- rithm for fractional-order differential equations. Three examples of fractional-order systems are considered: a generalized Lorenz system, the Rabinovich-Fabrikant system and a non-smooth Chua system.
