Description for An Introduction to Discrete Dynamical Systems and Chaos
Hardcover. This book introduces the reader to the fundamental principles, definitions, and results of dynamical systems and chaos. Rather than relegating chaos to the last chapter in the book, as is usually the case, this work treats chaos as an integral part of dynamical systems theory. Series: Wiley Series in Discrete Mathematics and Optimization. Num Pages: 344 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: PBKJ; PBWS; PDE; TBJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 241 x 163 x 26. Weight in Grams: 670.
A timely, accessible introduction to the mathematics of chaos.
The past three decades have seen dramatic developments in the theory of dynamical systems, particularly regarding the exploration of chaotic behavior. Complex patterns of even simple processes arising in biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, economics, and a host of other disciplines have been investigated, explained, and utilized.
Introduction to Discrete Dynamical Systems and Chaos makes these exciting and important ideas accessible to students and scientists by assuming, as a background, only the standard undergraduate training in calculus and linear algebra. Chaos is introduced at the outset ... Read more

Reviews for An Introduction to Discrete Dynamical Systems and Chaos
"From the preface: 'The purpose of this book is to present the fundamental ideas on discrete dynamical systems and chaos at the level of those undergraduates...who have completed the standard calculus sequence, with the inclusion of functions of several variables and linear algebra.'"
