Title: Singular baker maps and Lorenz pretzels



Abstract:  We introduce a family of modified baker maps defined in the 
square, for which the non wandering set is the entire domain. These maps 
are non uniformly hyperbolic in the interior of the square, and have a 
dense set of hyperbolic periodic orbits. We use the maps to construct a 
flow in dimension three with a "fat" non wandering set (non-empty 
interior) with an attached hyperbolic singularity. The flow is inspired 
in the construction of the Lorenz geometric attractor.
