Revealing More Hidden Attractors from a New Sub-Quadratic Lorenz-Like System of Degree 6 5

In the sense that the descending powers of some certain variables may widen the range of parameters of self-excited and hidden attractors, this technical note proposes a new three-dimensional Lorenz-like system of degree [Formula: see text]. In contrast to the previously studied one of degree [Formula: see text], the newly reported one creates more hidden Lorenz-like attractors coexisting with the unstable origin and a pair of stable node-foci in a broader range of parameters, which confirms the generalization of the second part of the celebrated Hilbert’s 16th problem once more. In addition, some other dynamics, i.e. Hopf bifurcation, the generic and degenerate pitchfork bifurcation, invariant algebraic surface, first integral, singularly degenerate heteroclinic cycle with nearby chaotic attractor, ultimate bounded set and existence of a pair of heteroclinic orbits, are discussed.
