Problem (LORENZ)
Consider the Lorenz system of differential equations: $$\begin{align*} \frac{dx}{dt} &= \sigma (y - x) \\ \frac{dy}{dt} &= x (\rho - z) - y \\ \frac{dz}{dt} &= x y - \beta z \end{align*}$$ where \(\sigma = 10\), \(\rho = 28\), and \(\beta = 8 / 3\) are positive parameters.
- Find the equilibrium points of the Lorenz system.
- Linearize the system around each equilibrium point.
- Analyze the stability of each equilibrium point using the linearized system.
- Discuss the implications of your findings for the behavior of the Lorenz system.
- Numerically simulate the Lorenz system for various initial conditions and visualize the trajectories in 3D space.
