ABSTRACT

For almost every phenomenon in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, economics, and other sciences, one can make a mathematical model that can be regarded as a dynamical system. One-Dimensional Dynamical Systems: An Example-Led Approach seeks to deep-dive into α standard maps as an example-driven way of explaining the modern theory of the subject in a way that will be engaging for students.

Features

  • Example-driven approach
  • Suitable as supplementary reading for a graduate or advanced undergraduate course in dynamical systems
