Concepts and Results in Chaotic Dynamics: A Short Course
by Pierre Collet and Jean-Pierre Eckmann
Published 26 October 2006
The study of dynamical systems is a well established field. This book provides a panorama of several aspects of interest to mathematicians and physicists. It collects the material of several courses at the graduate level given by the authors, avoiding detailed proofs in exchange for numerous illustrations and examples. Apart from common subjects in this field, a lot of attention is given to questions of physical measurement and stochastic properties of chaotic dynamical systems.
