High-Dimensional Chaotic and Attractor Systems Summary

High-Dimensional Chaotic and Attractor Systems: A Comprehensive Introduction by Vladimir G. Ivancevic

This graduate-level textbook is devoted to understanding, prediction and control of high-dimensional chaotic and attractor systems of real life. The objective is to provide the serious reader with a serious scientific tool that will enable the actual performance of competitive research in high-dimensional chaotic and attractor dynamics. From introductory material on low-dimensional attractors and chaos, the text explores concepts including Poincare's 3-body problem, high-tech Josephson junctions, and more.

High-Dimensional Chaotic and Attractor Systems Reviews

From the reviews:

This is an ambitious book that ... is devoted to the understanding, prediction and control of high-dimensional chaotic and attractor systems in real life. ... Finally, and most usefully, the book has a substantial list of references (over 30 pages of them), meaning that the book can be used as a guide to literature in a diverse range of topics related to high- (and indeed low-) dimensional chaotic and nonlinear systems. (Peter Ashwin, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2008 h)
