Chaos, fractals, and noise: Stochastic aspects of dynamics. (Q1310799)

In the second edition of their book, the authors have added one section on discrete time systems with multiplicative perturbations and six sections dealing with the property of sweeping and the corresponding Foguel alternative in various contexts (Markov operators, stochastic semigroups in continuous time, solutions of the Fokker-Planck equation). A completely new chapter includes sections on Markov and Foias operators, several notions of asymptotic stability for dynamical systems as well as a final section devoted to iterated function systems and fractals. In addition, the book now contains almost 100 exercises. [For the review of the first edition (1985) see Zbl 0606.58002].
