Tangential Homoclinic Points for Lozi Maps
摘要
For the family of Lozi maps, we study homoclinic points for the saddle fixed point X in the first quadrant. Specifically, in the parameter space, we examine the boundary of the region in which homoclinic points for X exist. For all parameters on that boundary, all intersections of the stable and unstable manifold of X, apart from X, are tangential, or these manifolds intersect along a segment. We ultimately prove that for such parameters, all possible homoclinic points for X are iterates of two special points Z and V, or iterates of points on a segment joining V with an iterate of Z. Additionally, we describe the parameter curves that form the boundary and provide explicit equations for several of them.
