Download or read book The User's Approach to Topological Methods in 3D Dynamical Systems written by Mario A. Natiello and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2007 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the development and application of some topological methods in the analysis of data coming from 3D dynamical systems (or related objects). The aim is to emphasize the scope and limitations of the methods, what they provide and what they do not provide. Braid theory, the topology of surface homeomorphisms, data analysis and the reconstruction of phase-space dynamics are thoroughly addressed.
