The Zaslavskii map is a discrete-time dynamical system introduced by George M. Zaslavsky. It is an example of a dynamical system that exhibits chaotic behavior. The Zaslavskii map takes a point () in the plane and maps it to a new point:
![{\displaystyle x_{n+1}=[x_{n}+\nu (1+\mu y_{n})+\epsilon \nu \mu \cos(2\pi x_{n})]\,({\textrm {mod}}\,1)}](https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/adfd5ccf515d6ae89e6340eb9ec4775d8ef23e40)
and
where mod is the modulo operator with real arguments. The map depends on four constants ν, μ, ε and r. Russel (1980) gives a Hausdorff dimension of 1.39 but Grassberger (1983) questions this value based on their difficulties measuring the correlation dimension.
