Authored by one of the pioneers of chaos theory, revealed for the first time
Provides many original insights into chaos theory
Contains many unpublished examples and discussions
Written in the 1980s by one of the fathers of chaos theory, Otto E. Rossler, the manuscript
presented in this volume eventually never got published. Almost 40 years later, it remains
astonishingly at the forefront of knowledge about chaos theory and many of the examples
discussed have never been published elsewhere. The manuscript has now been edited by
Christophe Letellier - involved in chaos theory for almost three decades himself, as well as
being active in the history of sciences - with a minimum of changes to the original text. Finally
released for the benefit of specialists and non-specialists alike, this book is equally interesting
from the historical and the scientific points of view: an unconventionally modern approach to
chaos theory, it can be read as a classic introduction and short monograph as well as a
collection of original insights into advanced topics from this field.

Honors the 90th birthday of the outstanding mathematician Constantin
Corduneanu
Gathers original research in fields like control, stochastics, mathematical
biology, mathematical modeling in mining and economics, and image
processing
Honors and reflects Corduneanu’s legacy in the fields of oscillation, stability
and control theory
This proceedings volume covers research in key areas of applied mathematical analysis, and
gathers works presented at the international conference “Concord-90,” in honor of the 90th
birthday of Professor Constantin Corduneanu (1928-2018). The event ? which Professor
Corduneanu was able to attend ? was held at Ural Federal University in Ekaterinburg, Russia,
on July 26-28, 2018. Professor Corduneanu’s research in mathematical analysis spanned
nearly seven decades and explored a range of important issues in the field, including studies
of global existence, stability problems, and oscillation theory, with special emphasis on various
classes of nonlinear equations. He published over two hundred articles and several books,
including “Almost Periodic Oscillations and Waves” (Springer, 2009). In this volume the reader
will find selected, peer-reviewed articles from seven fields of research ? Differential Equations,
Optimal Control and Stabilization; Stochastic Methods; Topology and Functions Approximation;
Mathematical Biology and Bioinformatics; Mathematical Modeling in Mining; Mathematical
Modeling in Economics; and Computer Science and Image Processing ? which honor and
reflect Professor Corduneanu’s legacy in the fields of oscillation, stability and control theory.

Comprehensive overview of the state of the art
Both theoretical and applied aspects are covered
Authors are leading researchers from the community
The proceedings of the 9thconference on "Finite Volumes for Complex Applications" (Bergen,
June 2020) are structured in two volumes. The first volume collects the focused invited papers,
as well as the reviewed contributions from internationally leading researchers in the field of
analysis of finite volume and related methods. Topics covered include convergence and stability
analysis, as well as investigations of these methods from the point of view of compatibilty with
physical principles. Altogether, a rather comprehensive overview is given on the state of the art
in the field. The properties of the methods considered in the conference give them
distinguished advantages for a number of applications. These include fluid dynamics,
magnetohydrodynamics, structural analysis, nuclear physics, semiconductor theory, carbon
capture utilization and storage, geothermal energy and further topics. The second volume
covers reviewed contributions reporting successful applications of finite volume and related
methods in these fields. The finite volume method in its various forms is a space discretization
technique for partial differential equations based on the fundamental physical principle of
conservation. Many finite volume methods preserve further qualitative or asymptotic properties,
including maximum principles, dissipativity, monotone decay of free energy, and asymptotic
stability, making the finite volume methods compatible discretization methods, which preserve
qualitative properties of continuous problems at the discrete level.
