Infos

This book provides an introduction to the theory of dynamical systems with the aid of the Maple algebraic manipulation package. lt is written for both senior un- dergraduates and first-year graduale students. The firsthalf of the book deals with continuous systems using ordinary differential equations (Chapters 1-12) and the second half is devoted to the study of discrete dynamical systems (Chapters 13-20). (The author has gone for breadth of coverage rather than fine detail and theorems with proof are kept at a minimum.) The material is not clouded by functional analytic and group theoretical definitions, and so is intelligible to readers with a general mathematical background. Some of the topics covered are scarcely cov- ered elsewhere. Most of the material in Chapters 9-12, 16, 17, 19, and 20 is at postgraduale Ievel and has been influenced by the author's own research interests. It has been found that these chapters are especially useful as reference material for senior undergraduate project work. The book has a very hands-on approach and takes the reader from the basic theory right through to recently published research material.
