NONLINEAR PHYSICS OF COMPLEX SYSTEMS: CURRENT STATUS AND TRENDS

摘要

This volume grew out of a conference in Bad Honnef in 1995 and attempts to cover both fundamental aspects and applications of the field of the nonlinear physics of complex systems. As such it is very wide ranging. There are 31 contributions on subjects as diverse as pattern formation, turbulence, chemical waves, Brownian rectifiers and many more. Many of the contributions are mathematical in their approach and address questions such as property bounds for complex systems, time series analyses, control of chaos, fractals and stochastics.
