Summary
This book presents elements of the theory of chaos in dynamical systems in a framework of theoretical understanding coupled with numerical and graphical experimentation. The theory is developed using only elementary calculus and algebra, and includes dynamics of one-and two-dimensional maps, periodic orbits, stability and its quantification, chaotic behaviour, and bifurcation theory of one-dimensional systems. There is an introduction to the theory of fractals, with an emphasis on the importa…
