Abstract

When studying dynamical systems, defined by differential equations or maps, a basic approach is to locate and to characterise the classical ingredients of such systems. These ingredients are critical points (equilibrium solutions), periodic solutions, invariant manifolds (in particular tori containing quasi-periodic solutions), homoclinics, heteroclinics and in general stable and unstable manifolds emanating from special solutions. As the theory is complex and still in development we will give a more open-ended discussion than in other chapters of our toolbox.
