The latest developments on both the theory and applications of bifurcations with symmetry. The text includes recent experimental work as well as new approaches

This largely self-contained research monograph addresses the following type of questions. Suppose one encounters a continuous time dynamical system with some bu

This book has been written in a frankly partisian spirit-we believe that singularity theory offers an extremely useful approach to bifurcation prob lems and we

This book is an expanded version of a Master Class on the symmetric bifurcation theory of differential equations given by the author at the University of Twente

The framework of ‘symmetry’ provides an important route between the abstract theory and experimental observations. The book applies symmetry methods to dyna
