Summary

Many systems in the living and silent world exhibit nonlinear dynamics expressed in various ways: loss of system state stability and its evolution to another while breaking symmetry, extreme response to small disturbances, universal behaviors and more. These systems are most often described by ordinary (non-linear) or partial (non-linear) differential equations. The course aims to provide basic, analytical and computational tools for analyzing nonlinear systems, demonstrating them with models of physical, environmental, chemical and biological systems.
