Models for Dynamics

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Dynamics Reported ((DYNAMICS,volume 2))

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to give a tutorial exposition of what we consider to be the basic mathematical concepts in the theory of dynamical systems.

Ce que l’on conçoit bien s’énonce clairement, Et les mots pour le dire arrivent aisément. (Boileau, l’Art Poétique, 1674)
