{"product_id":"combinatorial-dynamics-and-entropy-in-luis-alseda-9789810240530","title":"Combinatorial Dynamics and Entropy in Dimension One (2nd Edition)","description":"This book introduces the reader to the two main directions of one-dimensional dynamics. The first has its roots in the Sharkovskii theorem, which describes the possible sets of periods of all cycles (periodic orbits) of a continuous map of an interval into itself. The whole theory, which was developed based on this theorem, deals mainly with combinatorial objects, permutations, graphs, etc.; it is called combinatorial dynamics. The second direction has its main objective in measuring the complexity of a system, or the degree of \"chaos\" present in it; for that the topological entropy is used. The book analyzes the combinatorial dynamics and topological entropy for the continuous maps of either an interval or the circle into itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luis Alseda,Jaume Llibre,Michal Misiurewicz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9810240538\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789810240530\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.84h x 6.31w x 1.13d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2001 pg. 47","brand":"Luis Alseda","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48448095289599,"sku":"9789810240530","price":117.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_241b1744-936a-499c-8f37-2b02c0a680dc.jpg?v=1777236860","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/combinatorial-dynamics-and-entropy-in-luis-alseda-9789810240530","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
