Smooth and nonsmooth high dimensional chaos and the melnikov-type methods / Jan Awrejcewicz, Mariusz M. Holicke.

This book focuses on the development of Melnikov-type methods applied to high dimensional dynamical systems governed by ordinary differential equations. Although the classical Melnikov's technique has found various applications in predicting homoclinic intersections, it is devoted only to the a...
