==== Generating Data ====

I followed the first couple steps of John G's howto essentially verbatim and deviated only with respect to calculation of the poincare section.

I used the following script file, with eigenvalues already present, to generate my data:

  #!/bin/bash
  #This will hopefully generate all of the data I need to construct a poincare section of 
  # the upper branch unstable manifold.

I then created a parameter dependent flow field, that mixed two fields, or equivalently, john's e_theta.

<latex>
e_{\theta} = sin(\theta)\vec{u}_0 + cos(\theta)\vec{u}_1
</latex>

I set theta to be pi/4, to get the strongest possible contribution from both fields.  I then used poincare.cpp to calculate the intersections of each of the trajectories calculated in the script and saved them to disk.  I then plotted them, and what resulted is what is in my blog.
