Mathematics and Computer Science 203A - ST:Chaos Theory Hundley

Institution:

Whitman College

Subject:

Description:

This course is an introduction to chaotic dynamical systems through theory and computer experimentation. We begin by examining discrete dynamical systems, bifurcations, and transitions to chaos. We will build up analytic tools, including fractal geometry and a little complex analysis to end the course with dynamics in the complex plane, Julia sets and the Mandelbrot set. Prerequisites: Mathematics 126.
