Description and Table of Contents

Description

Stochastic dynamics, born almost 100 years ago with the early explanations of Brownian motion by physicists, is nowadays a quickly expanding field of research within nonequilibrium statistical physics. The present volume provides a survey on the influence of fluctuations in nonlinear dynamics. It addresses specialists, although the intention of this book is to provide teachers and students with a reliable resource for seminar work. In particular, the reader should find many examples illustrating the theory as well as a host of recent findings.

Table of Contents

  • Concepts of stochastics and kinetics
  • activation and Brownian motors
  • synchronization and stochastic resonances
  • distributed systems. (Part contents)
