The book describes some of the main mechanisms of collective behaviour in dynamical systems, including simple coupled systems, chaotic systems, and systems of infinite-dimension. After introducing the reader to the basic concepts of nonlinear dynamics, the book explores the main synchronized states of coupled systems and describes the influence of noise and the occurrence of synchronous motion in multistable and spatially-extended systems. Finally, the authors discuss the underlying principles of collective dynamics on complex networks, providing an understanding of how networked systems are able to function as a whole in order to process information, perform coordinated tasks, and respond collectively to external perturbations. The demonstrations, numerous illustrations and application examples will help advanced graduate students and researchers gain an organic and complete understanding of the subject. 650 0 Nonlinear theories. 650 0 Synchronization. 650 0 Pattern formation (Physical sciences) 650 0 Chaotic synchronization. 650 0 Dynamics. 856 40 |uhttps://doi.org/10.1017/9781107297111 936 CambEBA2018/19
