Order and chaos. On linear and nonlinear difference equations (English)
0 references
The booklet gives an elementary introduction to discrete dynamical systems in one real variable. The first part deals with linear first and second order systems; the second part with nonlinear systems.NEWLINENEWLINEThis part contains a discussion of the logistic map \(f_\mu(x) = \mu x (1-x)\) (in details only for \(1 < \mu < 3\)). Moreover, it is proved in general that the existence of an orbit of period three implies that orbit of all other periods exist. The Sakovskij ordering is stated and there is a short discussion of the topological definition of chaos.
