Dynamics of Coupled Map Lattices And of Related Spatially Extended Systems

This book is about the dynamics of coupled map lattices (CML) and of related spatially extended systems. It will be useful to post-graduate students and researchers seeking an overview of the state-of-the-art and of open problems in this area of nonlinear dynamics. The special feature of this book is that it describes the (mathematical) theory of CML and some related systems and their phenomenology, with some examples of CML modeling of concrete systems (from physics and biology). More precisely, the book deals with statistical properties of (weakly) coupled chaotic maps, geometric aspects of (chaotic) CML, monotonic spatially extended systems, and dynamical models of specific biological systems.Chazottes, Jean-René is the author of 'Dynamics of Coupled Map Lattices And of Related Spatially Extended Systems ', published 2005 under ISBN 9783540242895 and ISBN 3540242899.
