Abstract

Since the discovery of the first chaotic Lorenz system, chaos theory has experienced great evolution and development. The complexity and richness of the subject are beyond our wildest imagination. This article demonstrates the beauty of chaos from various points of view, including the ancient philosophical wisdom, the innovation of modern scientific thoughts, the unification of deterministic and stochastic natures, the mystical mechanism of generating chaos, and a variety of complex yet beautiful phase portraits of newly found chaotic attractors.
