Abstract

We study infinite-dimensional systems of ordinary differential equations having applications in some popular and important physical problems. The appearance of infinite-dimensional space–time chaos is considered, namely, the bifurcations and critical phenomena that occur in the phase space of the systems and explain some physical problems are described.
