In this paper, we study the complex dynamic characteristics of a simple nonlinear logistic map. The map contains two parameters that have complex influences on the map’s dynamics. Assuming different values for those parameters gives rise to strange attractors with fractal dimensions. Furthermore, some of these chaotic attractors have heteroclinic cycles due to saddle-fixed points. The basins of attraction for some periodic cycles in the phase plane are divided into three regions of rank-1 preimages. We analyze those regions and show that the map is noninvertible and includes Z0,Z2 and Z4 regions.
