Download or read book Methods Of Hilbert Spaces In The Theory Of Nonlinear Dynamical Systems written by Krzysztof Kowalski and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1994-07-26 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first monograph on a new powerful method discovered by the author for the study of nonlinear dynamical systems relying on reduction of nonlinear differential equations to the linear abstract Schrödinger-like equation in Hilbert space. Besides the possibility of unification of many apparently completely different techniques, the “quantal” Hilbert space formalism introduced enables new original methods to be discovered for solving nonlinear problems arising in investigation of ordinary and partial differential equations as well as difference equations. Applications covered in the book include symmetries and first integrals, linearization transformations, Bäcklund transformations, stroboscopic maps, functional equations involving the case of Feigenbaum-Cvitanovic renormalization equations and chaos.
