I assume that the study group has mastered ChaosBook [[http://chaosbook.org/paper.shtml#maps|Discrete time dynamics]], [[http://chaosbook.org/paper.shtml#stability|Local stability]] and [[http://chaosbook.org/paper.shtml#invariants|Cycle stability]] under Alex guidance, and I would be happy if you also understood [[http://chaosbook.org/paper.shtml#knead|Charting the state space]] and brought [[http://chaosbook.org/paper.shtml#smale|Qualitative dynamics for cyclists]] to within your comfort zone. --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-02-23 12:10//
