periodic orbits) S. Denisov
Logistic map: Period-1 orbits
Map: x n+1 = M(x n ) = rx n (1 − x n ) γ = M 0 (x) = r (1 − 2x) x = 0 : γ 1 = |M 0 (0)| = r
x = 1 − 1/r : γ 2 =
|M 0 (1 − 1/r)| = |2 − r|
For 0 ≤ 0 ≤ 1: x = 0 is a stable orbit with the basin of attraction [0, 1]
For 1 ≤ 0 ≤ 3: x = 1 − 1/r is a
stable orbit with the basin of
attraction [0, 1]

“Period-3 means chaos”, i.e. when the period-3 orbit is
unstable then ALL the periodic orbits are unstable.
