Abstract

In these lectures we present a brief introduction into a dynamical quality which is often called deterministic chaos. It is observed in many physical and other systems in which three or more order parameters or macroscopic variables xα(t) competitively determine the time behavior. The equations of motion

$${\dot x_\alpha } = {f_\alpha }(x,\alpha ),\alpha = 1,2,...,d$$
((1))

are coupled ordinary differential equations (o.d.e.s), depending on an externally controlled parameter a. If there is only one variable x1(t) the stationary solution is time independent (or goes to infinity). If there are two variables x1(t), x2(t) limit cycle behavior is possible besides the time independent steady state (or xα to infinity). The periodic (although in general not sinusoidal) oscillation is selfgenerated and not externally imposed.
