Statistical Theory of Instabilities in Stationary Nonequilibrium Systems with Applications to Lasers and Nonlinear Optics

  • Chapter
Springer Tracts in Modern Physics

Abstract

The transition of a macroscopic system from a disordered, chaotic state to an ordered more regular state is a very general phenomenon as is testified by the abundance of highly ordered macroscopic systems in nature. These transitions are of special interest, if the change in order is structural, i.e. connected with a change in the symmetry of the system’s state.
