It offers a solid mathematical foundation and essential basic knowledge for further developments, such as deterministic chaos theory, which has numerous other references but may sometimes lack an exhaustive presentation of preliminary notions. Readers will find a discussion of topics that are sometimes neglected in the research literature, such as a comparison between different predictions achievable by the discrete time model and the continuous time model of the same application. Another novel aspect of this book is an accurate analysis of the way a fixed point may lose stability, introducing and comparing several notions of instability: simple instability, repulsivity, and complete instability. To assist the reader and demonstrate the flexibility and potentiality of the discrete approach to dynamics, numerous examples, numerical simulations, and figures have been included. The book serves as a valuable reference material for courses at the doctoral or upper undergraduate level in mathematics and theoretical engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 407g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030950910\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrea Bacciotti","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102923649274,"sku":"9783030950910","price":66.63,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_1d80aa53-7b53-4eda-9281-1b58a31358d6.jpg?v=1669552679","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/discrete-dynamics-basic-theory-and-examples-9783030950910","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
