Notes of Seminars are available here

  • Gregoire Nicolis. Introduction to Nonlinear Science (Cambridge UP, 1995)
  • Ed Ott. Chaos in Dynamical Systems (Cambridge UP, 1993)

Homework

Each week there will be a set of problems (see toolbar on the left). For each problem there will be a discussion page, and eventually we will discuss the solutions in the seminar. On request I also offer suggestions for further study.

Jupyter Notebooks

For selected problems we will set up Jupyter notebooks, where you can explore the solutions based on interactive Julia templates.
