Fractal Basins of Convergence of a Seventh-Order Generalized Hénon–Heiles Potential

This article aims to investigate the points of equilibrium and the associated convergence basins in a seventh-order generalized Hénon–Heiles potential. Using the well-known Newton–Raphson iterator, we numerically locate the positions of the points of equilibrium, while we also obtain their linear st...
