Phase Space Geometry and Chaotic Attractors in Dissipative Nambu
Mechanics
   [PDF]

Zacharias Roupas
Following the Nambu mechanics framework we demonstrate that the non-dissipative part of the Lorenz system can be generated by the intersection of two quadratic surfaces that form a doublet under the group SL(2,R). All manifolds are classified into four dinstict classes; parabolic, elliptical, cylindrical and hyperbolic. The Lorenz attractor is localized by a specific infinite set of one parameter family of these surfaces. The different classes correspond to different physical systems. The Lorenz system is identified as a charged rigid body in a uniform magnetic field with external torque and this system is generalized to give new strange attractors.
