What It Is

Laser cavity chaos: x(n+1) = 1 + u(x cos t - y sin t), y(n+1) = u(x sin t + y cos t) where t = 0.4 - 6/(1+x²+y²). Multistable at u=0.9, different attractor topology from Hénon

Interpretation

Standard analysis sees: rich, high-entropy values; anti-persistent; blue spectrum (high-frequency power); aperiodic / broadband; time-irreversible (sharp rises, slow decay); high-dimensional / space-filling. The atlas additionally detects discrete-map sensitive dependence. It sits beside Gzip (level 9) in the atlas (standard-bank rank 42) — a neighbor conventional features miss.

What the atlas adds
discrete-map sensitive dependence+3.1z
deterministic chaos (positive λ_max, sensitive dependence)
names a discrete-map-scoped estimate, NOT chaos in general — continuous-flow chaos (Lorenz, Rössler) reads weak/neutral here despite being genuinely chaotic; spiky arithmetic sources can false-positive on the finite-time estimate
