About
About the course
Course content
The course will be offered every third year, provided there are sufficiently many students. Lectured next time Fall 2012. If not sufficiently many students register, it may be given as a guided self-study course.
The course will give a further introduction to the modern theory of dynamical systems and give a basis for further study in the field.It will also be a useful course for other areas as well. Both continuous and discrete systems will be treated.The interplay between differentiable and symbolic dynamics will be discussed.Central topics will be bifurcationtheory, chaos and attractors.
Learning methods and activities
Lectures, alternatively guided self-study.
Recommended previous knowledge
The course is based on knowledge corresponding to TMA4165/SIF5025 Differential equations and dynamical systems.
