With both analytic and numerical methods, the book studies several of these systems—including for example the hydrogen atom or the solar system, with the associated Arnold web—through modern tools such as the frequency-modified fourier transform, wavelets, and the frequency-modulation indicator. Meanwhile, it draws heavily on the more standard KAM and Nekhoroshev theorems. Geography of Order and Chaos in Mechanics contains many figures that illuminate its concepts in novel ways, but perhaps its most useful feature is its inclusion of software to reproduce the various numerical experiments. The graphical user interfaces of five supplied MATLAB programs allows readers without any knowledge of computer programming to visualize and experiment with the distribution of order, chaos and resonances in various Hamiltonian systems. This monograph will be a valuable resource for professional researchers and certain advanced undergraduate students in mathematics and physics, but mostly will be an exceptional reference for Ph.D. students with an interest in perturbation theory.Progress in Mathematical Physics,1544-9998 ;64Statistical mechanicsMechanicsMathematical modelsMathematical analysisStatistical mechanics.MechanicsMathematical models.Mathematical analysis.515.39530.15Cordani Bruno725973MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437869203321Geography of Order and Chaos in Mechanics2532103UNINA
