Comment on "Simple approach to the creation of a strange nonchaotic attractor in any chaotic system"
- We address the problem of existence of strange nonchaotic attractors (SNAs) in quasiperiodically forced dynamical systems. Recently, Shuai and Wong [Phys. Rev. E 59, 5338 (1999)] suggested a universal method for constructing a SNA in an arbitrary system possessing chaos. We demonstrate here that, in general, this method fails. For arbitrary systems, it gives a SNA only in a vicinity of transition to chaos. We discuss also a special example, where the method by Shuai and Wong indeed produces a SNA.
