N-DIMENSIONAL CANONICAL CHUA'S CIRCUIT

Abstract
In this paper we present an n-dimensional canonical piecewise-linear electrical circuit. It contains 2n two-terminal elements: n linear dynamic elements (capacitors and inductors), n - 1 linear resistors and one nonlinear (piecewise-linear) resistor. This circuit can realize any prescribed eigenvalue pattern, except for a set of measure zero, associated with (i) any n-dimensional two-region continuous piecewise-linear vector fields and (ii) any n-dimensional three-region symmetric (with respect to the origin) piecewise-linear continuous vector fields. We also proved a theorem that specifies the conditions for a vector field, realized with our canonical circuit, to have two or three equilibrium points.
