Complex Systems

Structural Methods in the Study of Complex Systems helps the reader respond to the challenge of mastering complexity in systems and control. The book details the fundamental control problems arising from complex dynamical systems and shows how they can be tackled effectively by means of methods developed from graph theory, differential algebra and geometric approaches.

Geometrical Dynamics of Complex Systems is a graduate-level mono graphic textbook. It represents a comprehensive introduction into rigorous geometrical dynamics of complex systems of various natures. By 'complex systems',in this book are meant high-dimensional nonlinear systems, which can be (but not necessarily are) adaptive.

In recent years, entropy has been used as a measure of the degree of chaos in dynamical systems. Thus, it is important to study entropy in nonlinear systems. Moreover, there has been increasing interest in the last few years regarding the novel classification of nonlinear dynamical systems including two kinds of attractors: self-excited attractors and hidden attractors.

This book contains all refereed papers accepted during the tenth edition of the conference that took place at the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris on December 12-13, 2019.
