In recent years there has been an explosion of research interest centred on the appearance of so-called 'chaotic behaviour'. This book provides a largely self-contained introduction to the mathematical structures underlying models of systems whose state changes with time, and which therefore may exhibit this sort of behaviour. The early part of this book is based on lectures given at the University of London and covers the background to dynamical systems, the fundamental properties of such systems, the local bifurcation theory of flows and diffeomorphisms, Anosov automorphism, the horseshoe diffeomorphism and the logistic map and area-preserving planar maps. The authors then consider current research into this field such as the perturbation of area-preserving maps of the plane and the cylinder. The text is accompanied by a great number of worked examples and exercises, many with hints, and over 200 figures. It will be a valuable first textbook to senior undergraduate and postgraduate students in mathematics, physics, engineering and other areas in which the notions of qualitative dynamics are employed.
