This representation has the advantage that is itself a finite-duration sequence corresponding to samples equally spaced in the frequency domain. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algoritm allows us an effective computation, and it can be applied to a relatively short time series. DFT representation requirements were analized and applied for determining the order-chaos transition in a nonlinear system described by the equation $x[n+1]=rx[n](1-x[n])$. Its effectiveness was demonstrated by comparing the results with those obtained by calculating the largest Lyapounov exponent for the time series set, obtained from the logistic equation.14pages, 6figuresChaotic DynamicsPossibilities of the Discrete Fourier Transform for Determining the Order-Chaos Transition in a Dynamical Systemtext
