《现代动力系统理论导论(影印版)》内容简介：this book provides the first self-contained comprehensive exposition of the theory of dynamical systems as a core mathematical discipline closely intertwined with most of the main areas of mathematics. the authors introduce and rigorously develop the theory while providing researchers interested in applications with fundamental tools and paradigms.

the book begins with a discussion of several elementary but fundamental examples. these are used to formulate a program for the general study of asymptotic properties and to introduce the principal theoretical concepts and methods. the main theme of the second part of the book is the interplay between local analysis near individual orbits and the global complexity of the orbit structure. the third and fourth parts develop in depth the theories of !ow-dimensional dynamical systems and hyperbolic dynamical systems.

the book is aimed at students and researchers in mathematics at all levels from ad-vanced undergraduate up. scientists and engineers working in applied dynamics, non-linear science, and chaos will also find many fresh insights in this concrete and clear presentation. it contains more than four hundred systematic exercises.
