Bifurcations and Catastrophes: Geometry of Solutions to Nonlinear Problems By Michel Demazure, D. Chillingworth
2000 | 304 Pages | ISBN: 3540521186 | PDF | 25 MB
Based on a lecture course, this text gives a rigorous introduction to nonlinear analysis, dynamical systems and bifurcation theory including catastrophe theory. Wherever appropriate it emphasizes a geometrical or coordinate-free approach allowing a clear focus on the essential mathematical structures. It brings out features common to different branches of the subject while giving ample references for more advanced or technical developments.
