Críticas

The book gives a self-contained introduction to the modern nonlinear dynamics physicist's point of view. The basic concepts and methods of this theory, such as Lyapunov exponents, dimensions, Kolmogorov's entropy, strange attractors, KAM-theory, Arnold diffusion, renormalization group theory, etc. are introduced and explained on an elementary level. Moreover, the general models of transition from order to chaos (period doubling, intermittency, Ruele-Takens model), chaos in quantum systems and the problems of controlling chaos are also discussed. The above material is explained and illustrated by a great number of concrete examples of chaotic dynamical systems arising in applications for which a detailed theoretical and numerical study is given.
