Symmetry Perspective: From Equilibrium to Chaos in Phase Space and Physical Space(Progress in Mathematics)

Series: Progress in Mathematics

The framework of 'symmetry' provides an important route between the abstract theory and experimental observations. The book applies symmetry methods to dynamical systems, focusing on bifurcation and chaos theory. Its exposition is organized around a wide variety of relevant applications. From the reviews: "[The] rich collection of examples makes the book...extremely useful for motivation and for
