Sprott [Phys. Rev. E 50, 647 (1994)] developed a computerized search method and applied it to generate [ital millions] of sets of coupled chaotic ordinary differential equations. Each of the sets contained three coupled quadratic equations. Of these, the simplest, Sprott's case A, is the set of equations that Posch, Hoover, and Vesely [Phys. Rev. A 33, 4253 (1986)] used to describe a single one-dimensional Nose-Hoover oscillator. In this sense, the Nose-Hoover oscillator system is the simplest mechanical system exhibiting chaos.
