A. Stefanski et al., TORUS ON-OFF INTERMITTENCY IN COUPLED LORENZ SYSTEMS, Physical review. E, Statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics, 57(1), 1998, pp. 1175-1177
In this paper we describe an example of on-off intermittency linked wi
th the destruction of the torus attractor of a pair of coupled chaotic
Lorenz systems. We show that this intermittency has similar propertie
s to on-off intermittency linked with the destruction of the synchroni
zed chaotic attractor located on the system invariant manifold and pro
pose a possible mechanism for it.
