Chaotic phenomena
The essential phenomena of chaotic systems are reviewed with several references to biological applications. Difference and differential equations are discussed separately, followed by a shorter chapter on measures, dimensions, and entropy. Several well-known model systems (like the logistic map, the Baker's transformation, or the horseshoe map for difference equations, the Hénon equation, the Lorentz equations, or the periodically forced van der Pol oscillator for differential systems) are presented in order to illustrate the general features of chaos.
