Abstract Nonlinear dynamical systems might exhibit sensitivity to small perturbations in their control parameters, resulting in uncertainties on the predicability of tunning parameters that lead these systems to either a chaotic or a periodic behavior. Here we propose to analyze such uncertainties to obtain the boundary dimension between chaos and periodicity in the parameters space. We will verify if this boundary dimension is universal for different classes of dynamical systems. Additionally, we will investigate how the size of periodic structures varies in the parameters space. | |
