Download or read book Dynamical Systems: From Crystal To Chaos, Conference In Honor Of Gerard Rauzy On His 60th Birthday written by J-m Gambaudo and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000-07-20 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the interactions between discrete and geometric dynamical systems, and between dynamical systems and theoretical physics and computer science. Accordingly, the contributions revolve around two main topics: (1) interaction between geometric and symbolic systems, with emphasis on tiling problems for quasicrystals, substitutions and their multidimensional generalizations, geodesic and horocycle flow, adic systems; (2) dynamical systems: geometry and chaos, with special interest in smooth ergodic theory, statistical and multifractal properties of chaotic systems, stability and turbulence in extended complex systems.
