The second edition of this popular text continues to treat dynamical systems from a mathematical perspective centering on multidimensional systems of real variables. At a level accessible to beginning graduate students, it addresses the dynamics of both the iteration of functions and solutions of ordinary differential equations. This edition includes material on horsehoes, an additional chapter on Hamiltonian systems, a revised discussion of the saddle node bifurcation, and proof of...
More DescriptionThe second edition of this popular text continues to treat dynamical systems from a mathematical perspective centering on multidimensional systems of real variables. At a level accessible to beginning graduate students, it addresses the dynamics of both the iteration of functions and solutions of ordinary differential equations. This edition includes material on horsehoes, an additional chapter on Hamiltonian systems, a revised discussion of the saddle node bifurcation, and proof of the ergodicity of a hyperbolic toral automorphism. Numerous exercises help readers understand the theorems presented and master the techniques of the proofs and topics under consideration.
