商品簡介
The 57 papers in this collection were selected from presentations at the September 2009 Fourth International Conference on Physics and Control, held in Catania, Italy. Most are from special sessions and minisymposia, but some plenary talks and invited contributions are included as well. Among the themes are modeling and controlling coupled stochastic oscillators, the localization of oscillations in dynamical systems and control of oscillatory delayed-coupled networks, the mathematical modeling of dynamic systems for volcano physics, geometric control for quantum and classical models, and modeling and optimizing beam and plasma dynamics.
