Mathematical Methods in Modern Complexity Science (eBook)

This book presents recent developments in nonlinear and complex systems. It provides recent theoretic developments and new techniques based on a nonlinear dynamical systems approach that can be used to model and understand complex behavior in nonlinear dynamical systems. It covers information theory, relativistic chaotic dynamics, data analysis, relativistic chaotic dynamics, solvability issues in integro-differential equations, and inverse problems for parabolic differential equations, synchronization and chaotic transient. Presents new concepts for understanding and modeling complex systems

 

 

Dr J. A. Tenreiro Machado was born at 1957. He graduated with 'Licenciatura' (1980), PhD. (1989) and 'Habilitation' (1995), in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Porto. During 1980-1998 he worked at the Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the University of Porto. Since 1998 he works at the Institute of Engineering, Polytechnic Institute of Porto, Dept. of Electrical Engineering. His research focuses on complex systems, nonlinear dynamics, fractional calculus, modeling, entropy, control, and evolutionary computing, as well as genomics. Prof. J. A. Tenreiro Machado is a member of the Editorial boards of several international journals, guest editor of Special Issues, and has about 1000 publications in journals, conferences, and books.
