Abstract:
Written when the young science of chaos was gaining a
foothold in the scientific community, this book introduces the field's
concepts, applications, theory, and technique. Suitable for advanced
undergraduates and graduate students, researchers, and teachers of
mathematics, physics, and engineering, the text's major prerequisite is
familiarity with differential equations and linear vector spaces. Author
S. Neil Rasband discusses the major models for the transitions to chaos
exhibited by dynamic systems, introducing the "classical" topics and
examples fundamental to the discipline. The most important routes to
chaos are presented within a unified framework and supported by
integrated problem sets. Topics include one- and two-dimensional maps,
universality theory, fractal dimension, differential and conservative
dynamics, and other subjects. The text is supplemented by a helpful
glossary, references, and an index.
