Abstract
The resonant excitation of weakly non-linear surface waves in a magnetic fluid subject to a periodically oscillating magnetic field is examined using the Melnikov method. A Hamiltonian formulation results in transverse homoclinic orbits leading to a chaotic transition. A necessary condition for the existence of chaos in magnetic fluids is obtained.
