Introduction

This course offers an introductory exploration of nonlinear dynamics and chaos, laying the groundwork for a subsequent course on nonlinear dynamics in neuroscience to be offered next year. A foundational understanding of dynamical systems theory will be developed, and insights into the qualitative analysis of complex systems encountered in various fields of science and engineering will be gained.
