Estimating the bounds for the Lorenz family of chaotic systems

In this paper, we derive a sharper upper bound for the Lorenz system, for all the positive values of its parameters a, b and c. Comparing with the best result existing in the current literature, we fill the gap of the estimate for 01, 1 b<2, we obtain a more precise estimate. Along the same line, we also provide estimates of bounds for a unified chaotic system for . When α=0, the estimate agrees precisely with the known result. Finally, the two-dimensional bounds with respect to x−z for the Chen system, Lü system and the unified system are established.
