Dynamics Of Coupled Map Lattices And Of Related Spatially Extended Systems

Download or read book Dynamics of Coupled Map Lattices and of Related Spatially Extended Systems written by Jean-René Chazottes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-07-06 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the dynamics of coupled map lattices (CML) and of related spatially extended systems. It will be useful to post-graduate students and researchers seeking an overview of the state-of-the-art and of open problems in this area of nonlinear dynamics. The special feature of this book is that it describes the (mathematical) theory of CML and some related systems and their phenomenology, with some examples of CML modeling of concrete systems (from physics and biology). More precisely, the book deals with statistical properties of (weakly) coupled chaotic maps, geometric aspects of (chaotic) CML, monotonic spatially extended systems, and dynamical models of specific biological systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the mutual intersection of two fields of research: evolutionary computation, which can handle tasks such as control of various chaotic systems, and deterministic chaos, which is investigated as a behavioral part of evolutionary algorithms.

Download or read book Chaos written by Angelo Vulpiani and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaos: from simple models to complex systems aims to guide science and engineering students through chaos and nonlinear dynamics from classical examples to the most recent fields of research. The first part, intended for undergraduate and graduate students, is a gentle and self-contained introduction to the concepts and main tools for the characterization of deterministic chaotic systems, with emphasis to statistical approaches. The second part can be used as a reference by researchers as it focuses on more advanced topics including the characterization of chaos with tools of information theory and applications encompassing fluid and celestial mechanics, chemistry and biology. The book is novel in devoting attention to a few topics often overlooked in introductory textbooks and which are usually found only in advanced surveys such as: information and algorithmic complexity theory applied to chaos and generalization of Lyapunov exponents to account for spatiotemporal and non-infinitesimal perturbations. The selection of topics, numerous illustrations, exercises and proposals for computer experiments make the book ideal for both introductory and advanced courses. Sample Chapter(s).

Download or read book Isospectral Transformations written by Leonid Bunimovich and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new approach to the analysis of networks, which emphasizes how one can compress a network while preserving all information relative to the network's spectrum. Besides these compression techniques, the authors introduce a number of other isospectral transformations and demonstrate how, together, these methods can be applied to gain new results in a number of areas. This includes the stability of time-delayed and non time-delayed dynamical networks, eigenvalue estimation, pseudospectra analysis and the estimation of survival probabilities in open dynamical systems. The theory of isospectral transformations, developed in this text, can be readily applied in any area that involves the analysis of multidimensional systems and is especially applicable to the analysis of network dynamics. This book will be of interest to Mathematicians, Physicists, Biologists, Engineers and to anyone who has an interest in the dynamics of networks.
