I want to know if it is included in chaos. Does it have boundedness, deterministic, initial value sensitivity that is characteristic of chaos?

Perhaps it is related but I wouldn't use the expression "regarded as." Mostly when we talk chaos we are (usually) talking about deterministic dynamical systems. And Brownian motion is a stochastic process.
Stochastic meaning not deterministic.

In fact I'd say it is the opposite of being sensitive to initial conditions. A random walk in 1 or 2 dimensions visits every point in the lattice infinitely often, so in some sense it doesn't matter at all where you start.

@dbx. Not so sure that is a how to interpret sensitivity. It doesn't matter where you start in Lorenz Attractor you'll visit both parts of the system infinitely often. The nature of these trajectories are meaningfully different though... Anyway I recognize that user profile image! Hi! Have you ran a google image search on that profile pic. Any gentleman would find it well worth the time!.

@Mason Is there chaos example in the natural phenomenon?
