Stability, Instability and Chaos: An Introduction to the Theory of Nonlinear Differential Equations

by Paul Glendinning

Book Overview

By providing an introduction to nonlinear differential equations, Dr. Glendinning aims to equip the student with the mathematical know-how needed to appreciate stability theory and bifurcations. His approach is readable and covers material both old and new to undergraduate courses. Included are treatments of the Poincar -Bendixson theorem, the Hopf bifurcation and chaotic systems.
