Asymmetric Tent Map
The asymmetric tent map is essentially a distorted, but still piecewise linear, version of the case of the tent map. It is defined by
for parameter . The case of the tent map is the present case of . A sequence {} will have the same autocorrelation function as will data from the first-order autoregressive process with {} independently and identically distributed. Thus data from an asymmetric tent map cannot be distinguished, using the autocorrelation function, from data generated by a first-order autoregressive process.

“I never saw a man who looked
With such a wistful eye
Upon that little tent of blue
Which prisoners call the sky.”
