Synchronization of chaos refers to a process wherein two (or many) chaotic systems (either
equivalent or nonequivalent) adjust a given property of their motion to a common behavior …

The search for chaotic patterns has occupied numerous investigators in neuroscience, as in
many other fields of science. Their results and main conclusions are reviewed in the light of …

We study the dynamics of the excitable Fitz Hugh–Nagumo system under external noisy
driving. Noise activates the system producing a sequence of pulses. The coherence of these …

This work systematically investigates a large number of oscillatory network configurations
that are able to describe many real systems such as electric power grids, lasers or even the …

Introduction; 1. Turbulence and dynamical systems; 2. Phenomenology of turbulence; 3.
Reduced models for hydrodynamic turbulence; 4. Turbulence and coupled map lattices; 5 …

A survey of the emerging field termed “control of chaos” is given. Several major branches of
research are discussed in detail: feedforward or “nonfeedback control”(based on periodic …

Using the concepts of chaotic dynamical systems, we present an interpretation of dynamic
neural activity found in cortical and subcortical areas. The discovery of chaotic itinerancy in …

Chaos in science has always been a fascinating realm since it challenges the usual
scientific approach of reductionism. While carefully distinguishing between complexity …

Different aspects of the predictability problem in dynamical systems are reviewed. The deep
relation among Lyapunov exponents, Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy, Shannon entropy and …

In this book a number of ideas and results related to the? eld of cybern-ical physics–the
scienti? c area aimed at the study of physical systems by cybernetical means–are presented …
