Schaeffer, John W. Cain1st ed. 2016.New York, NY :Springer New York :Imprint: Springer,2016.1 online resource (XXX, 542 p. 139 illus., 61 illus. in color.) Texts in Applied Mathematics,0939-2475 ;651-4939-6387-2 Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction -- Linear Systems with Constant Coefficients -- Nonlinear Systems: Local Theory -- Nonlinear Systems: Global Theory -- Nondimensionalization and Scaling -- Trajectories Near Equilibria -- Oscillations in ODEs -- Bifurcation from Equilibria -- Examples of Global Bifurcation -- Epilogue -- Appendices.This book develops the theory of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), starting from an introductory level (with no prior experience in ODEs assumed) through to a graduate-level treatment of the qualitative theory, including bifurcation theory (but not chaos). While proofs are rigorous, the exposition is reader-friendly, aiming for the informality of face-to-face interactions. A unique feature of this book is the integration of rigorous theory with numerous applications of scientific interest. Besides providing motivation, this synthesis clarifies the theory and enhances scientific literacy. Other features include: (i) a wealth of exercises at various levels, along with commentary that explains why they matter; (ii) figures with consistent color conventions to identify nullclines, periodic orbits, stable and unstable manifolds; and (iii) a dedicated website with software templates, problem solutions, and other resources supporting the text. Given its many applications, the book may be used comfortably in science and engineering courses as well as in mathematics courses. Its level is accessible to upper-level undergraduates but still appropriate for graduate students. The thoughtful presentation, which anticipates many confusions of beginning students, makes the book suitable for a teaching environment that emphasizes self-directed, active learning (including the so-called inverted classroom).Texts in Applied Mathematics,0939-2475 ;65Differential equationsMathematical physicsDynamicsErgodic theoryOrdinary Differential Equationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12147Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19005Dynamical Systems and Ergodic Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M1204XDifferential equations.Mathematical physics.Dynamics.Ergodic theory.Ordinary Differential Equations.Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics.Dynamical Systems and Ergodic Theory.515.352Schaeffer David Gauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut21355Cain John Wauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254091003321Ordinary Differential Equations: Basics and Beyond2162705UNINA
