Dynamical system
Videos
In mathematics, physics, engineering and systems theory, a dynamical system is the description of how a system evolves in time. The study of dynamical systems is the focus of dynamical systems theory.

Control theory is a field of control engineering and applied mathematics that deals with the control of dynamical systems. The aim is to develop a model or algorithm governing the application of syste

…differential equations and ergodic theory, physics such as phase space, quantum state and thermodynamic state, engineering such as system theory, control theory and even information theory. From a mathematics perspective in the most general case the state space X is treated as a generic set of abstract algebra…
