  2. Alignment (Dungeons & Dragons) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alignment_(Dungeons_&_Dragons)

    D&D co-creator Gary Gygax credited the inspiration for the alignment system to the fantasy stories of Michael Moorcock and Poul Anderson. [4] [5]The original version of D&D (1974) allowed players to choose among three alignments when creating a character: lawful, implying honor and respect for society's rules; chaotic, implying rebelliousness and individualism; and neutral, seeking a balance ...

  3. Bifurcation diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bifurcation_diagram

    Symmetry breaking in pitchfork bifurcation as the parameter ε is varied. ε = 0 is the case of symmetric pitchfork bifurcation.. In a dynamical system such as ¨ + (;) + =, which is structurally stable when , if a bifurcation diagram is plotted, treating as the bifurcation parameter, but for different values of , the case = is the symmetric pitchfork bifurcation.

  4. Poincaré plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_plot

    A Poincaré plot, named after Henri Poincaré, is a graphical representation used to visualize the relationship between consecutive data points in time series to detect patterns and irregularities in the time series, revealing information about the stability of dynamical systems, providing insights into periodic orbits, chaotic motions, and bifurcations.

  5. Outer Plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outer_Plane

    The Outer Planes were presented for the first time in Volume 1, Number 8 of The Dragon, released July 1977 as part of the Great Wheel of Planes. [1] In the article "Planes: The Concepts of Spatial, Temporal and Physical Relationships in D&D", Gary Gygax mentions that there are 16 Outer Planes and describes the Seven Heavens, the Twin Paradises, and Elysium as "Typical higher planes", Nirvana ...

  6. List of chaotic maps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chaotic_maps

    In mathematics, a chaotic map is a map (an evolution function) that exhibits some sort of chaotic behavior.Maps may be parameterized by a discrete-time or a continuous-time parameter.

  7. Logistic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map

    Looking at the entire chaotic domain, whether it is chaotic or windowed, the maximum and minimum values on the vertical axis of the orbital diagram (the upper and lower limits of the attractor) are limited to a certain range. As shown in equation (2-1), the maximum value of the logistic map is given by r/4, which is the upper limit of the ...

  8. Hénon map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hénon_map

    For example, by keeping b fixed at 0.3 the bifurcation diagram shows that for a = 1.25 the Hénon map has a stable periodic orbit as an attractor. Variation of 'b' showing the Bifurcation diagram. The boomerang shape is further drawn in bold at the top. Initial coordinates for each cross-section is (0, -0.2). Achieved using Python and Matplotlib.
