Handbook of Dynamical Systems: Volume 3

In this volume, the authors present a collection of surveys on various aspects of the theory of bifurcations of differentiable dynamical systems and related topics.\n\nBy selecting these subjects, they focus on those developments from which research will be active in the coming years. The surveys are intended to educate the reader on the recent literature on the following subjects: transversality and generic properties like the various forms of the so-called Kupka-Smale theorem, the Closing Lemma and generic local bifurcations of functions (so-called catastrophe theory) and generic local bifurcations in 1-parameter families of dynamical systems, and notions of structural stability and moduli.Handbook of Dynamical Systems: Volume 3 is written by Broer, H.; Takens, F.; Hasselblatt, B. and published by Elsevier Science.
