Chaos and Coarse Graining in Statistical Mechanics /

Mostrar otras versiones (13)

While statistical mechanics describe the equilibrium state of systems with many degrees of freedom, and dynamical systems explain the irregular evolution of systems with few degrees of freedom, new tools are needed to study the evolution of systems with many degrees of freedom. This book presents th...
