Around the Boundary of Complex Dynamics
by Roland K. W. Roeder
Publisher: arXiv 2015
Number of pages: 56
Description:
We introduce the exciting field of complex dynamics at an undergraduate level while reviewing, reinforcing, and extending the ideas learned in an typical first course on complex analysis. Julia sets and the famous Mandelbrot set will be introduced and interesting properties of their boundaries will be described.

Variational Modelling: Energies, gradient flows, and large deviationsby Mark A. Peletier - arXiv
The notes describe the methodology called Variational Modelling, and focus on the application to the modelling of gradient-flow systems. I describe the methodology itself in great detail, and explain why this is a rational modelling route.

Chaos Theoryby Kais A. Mohamedamen Al Naimee (ed.) - InTech
With a good background in nonlinear dynamics, chaos theory, and applications, the authors give a treatment of the basic principles of nonlinear dynamics in different fields. In addition, they show overlap with the traditional field of control theory.
