The subject of chaos and, in particular, the complex chaotic patterns that can arise in distributed active systems are topics that are currently attracting much attention from various branches of science. This book and its partner volume I offer an excellent introduction to the basic theory of cooperative behavior in distributed active systems and are written at a level that is accessible to undergraduates. The second edition is essentially revised and enlarged.

This book is the second of two volumes that together give a comprehensive introduction to the theory of cooperative behavior in active systems. This volume is devoted to the properties of the complex chaotic patterns that can arise in distributed active systems. The reader will encounter strange attractors, fractals, discrete maps, spatio-temporal chaos etc., and will learn how these phenomena relate to the emergence of complex and chaotic patterns. Examples treated in detail include population explosion and extinction in fluctuating distributed media, and fluctuation effects in binary annihilation.
This second edition has been revised and enlarged, in particular with respect to turbulence in distributed active systems, and a new section on control of chaotic behavior has been added. Much new material has been included in chapters where noise-induced pattern formation is considered.

In this second of two volumes, we discuss the emergence and properties of complex chaotic patterns in distributed active systems. Such patterns can be produced autonomously by a system, or can result from selective amplification of fluctuations caused by external weak noise. 292 pp. Englisch. Seller Inventory # 9783642801983
