The question of coexisting attractors for the Hénon map is studied numerically by performing an exhaustive search in the parameter space. As a result, several parameter values for which more than two attractors coexist are found. Using tools from interval analysis, we show rigorously that the attractors exist. In the case of periodic orbits, we verify that they are stable, and thus proper sinks. Regions of existence in parameter space of the found sinks are located using a continuation method; the basins of attraction are found numerically.

We discuss efficient continuation algorithms for solving nonlinear eigenvalue problems. First, we exploit the idea of symmetry reductions and discretize the problem on a symmetry cell by the finite element method. Then we incorporate the multigrid V-cycle scheme in the context of continuation method to trace solution branches of the discrete problems, where the preconditioned Lanczos method is used as the relaxation scheme. Next, we apply the symmetry reduction technique to the two-grid finite element discretization scheme [Chien & Jeng, 2005] to solve some nonlinear eigenvalue problems in physical science. The two-grid centered difference discretization scheme described therein was also implemented for comparison. Sample numerical results are reported.
