The bifurcation of a fixed point to a limit cycle (Tabor 1989).
The motion along a phase curve as a function of time (Tabor 1989, p. 14).
A level set in two dimensions. Phase curves are sometimes also known as level curves (Tabor 1989, p. 14).
The Schwarzian derivative is defined by D_(Schwarzian)=(f^(''')(x))/(f^'(x))-3/2[(f^('')(x))/(f^'(x))]^2. The Feigenbaum constant is universal for one-dimensional maps if its ...
A method for predicting the onset of widespread chaos. It is based on the hypothesis that the dissolution of an invariant torus can be associated with the sudden change from ...
A phase portrait is a plot of multiple phase curves corresponding to different initial conditions in the same phase plane (Tabor 1989, p. 14). Phase portraits for simple ...
A partial differential equation which appears in differential geometry and relativistic field theory. Its name is a wordplay on its similar form to the Klein-Gordon equation. ...
A phase curve is a plot of the solution to a set of equations of motion in a phase plane (or more generally, a phase space) as a function of time (Tabor 1989, p. 14). Phase ...
A theorem outlined by Kolmogorov (1954) which was subsequently proved in the 1960s by Arnol'd (1963) and Moser (1962; Tabor 1989, p. 105). It gives conditions under which ...
The nonconservation of adiabatic invariants which arises in systems with three or more degrees of freedom.
