Extremes and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems
About this ebook
• A careful examination of how a dynamical system can serve as a generator of stochastic processes
• Discussions on the applications of statistical inference in the theoretical and heuristic use of extremes
• Several examples of analysis of extremes in a physical and geophysical context
• A final summary of the main results presented along with a guide to future research projects
• An appendix with software in Matlab® programming language to help readers to develop further understanding of the presented concepts
Extremes and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems is ideal for academics and practitioners in pure and applied mathematics, probability theory, statistics, chaos, theoretical and applied dynamical systems, statistical mechanics, geophysical fluid dynamics, geosciences and complexity science.
