Description
A solid basis for anyone studying the dynamical systems theory, providing the necessary understanding of the approaches, methods, results and terminology used in the modern applied-mathematics literature. Covering the basic topics in the field, the text can be used in a course on nonlinear dynamical systems or system theory. Special attention is given to efficient numerical implementations of the developed techniques, illustrated by several examples from recent research papers. A moderate mathematical background is assumed, and, whenever possible, only elementary mathematical tools are used, making this book suitable for advanced undergraduate or graduate students in applied mathematics, as well as for researchers in other disciplines who use dynamical systems as model tools in their studies.
