Abstract
We study a generalized Hénon map in two-dimensional space. We find a region of the phase space where the nonwandering set exists, specify parameter values for which this nonwandering set is hyperbolic, and prove that our map when restricted to a specific invariant subset is topologically conjugate to the Bernoulli three-shift. Coupling two such maps, as a result, we obtain a map in four-dimensional space and show that Bernoulli shifts also exist in this map.
