Questo testo si indirizza prima di tutto agli studenti delle Lauree Specialistiche in Biologia delle Università, ma sarà di interesse anche per studenti di Scienze Naturali e Medicina. Gli argomenti trattati includono i piu' classici modelli matematici di fenomeni biologici (dinamica delle popolazioni, diffusione delle malattie infettive, semplici modelli di fisiologia), ma una parte rilevante del testo e' dedicata all'approccio matematico alla teoria dell'evoluzione natuturale. Gli unici prerequisiti richiesti al lettore sono quelli forniti dai corsi di base di Matematica della Laurea triennale in Biologia, Scienze Naturali o Medicina; gli altri strumenti matematici sono discussi nel testo o nei "complementi matematici" che ne formano parte integrante. Sebbene i modelli qui discussi siano essenzialmente in termini di (semplici) equazioni differenziali e dunque deterministici, tesi a descrivere l'evoluzione di quantita' medie, si e' a piu' riprese cercato di mostrare il ruolo delle fluttuazioni nei fenomeni biologici e come esso possa essere tenuto in conto in modo matematicamente semplice.

This volume in the Encyclopedia of Complexity and Systems Science, Second Edition, is devoted to the fundamentals of Perturbation Theory (PT) as well as key applications areas such as Classical and Quantum Mechanics, Celestial Mechanics, and Molecular Dynamics. Less traditional fields of application, such as Biological Evolution, are also discussed. Leading scientists in each area of the field provide a comprehensive picture of the landscape and the state of the art, with the specific goal of combining mathematical rigor, explicit computational methods, and relevance to concrete applications. New to this edition are chapters on Water Waves, Rogue Waves, Multiple Scales methods, legged locomotion, Condensed Matter among others, while all other contributions have been revised and updated. Coverage includes the theory of (Poincare’-Birkhoff) Normal Forms, aspects of PT in specific mathematical settings (Hamiltonian, KAM theory, Nekhoroshev theory, and symmetric systems), technical problems arising in PT with solutions, convergence of series expansions, diagrammatic methods, parametric resonance, systems with nilpotent real part, PT for non-smooth systems, and on PT for PDEs [write out this acronym partial differential equations]. Another group of papers is focused specifically on applications to Celestial Mechanics, Quantum Mechanics and the related semiclassical PT, Quantum Bifurcations, Molecular Dynamics, the so-called choreographies in the N-body problem, as well as Evolutionary Theory. Overall, this unique volume serves to demonstrate the wide utility of PT, while creating a foundation for innovations from a new generation of graduate students and professionals in Physics, Mathematics, Mechanics, Engineering and the Biological Sciences.

This book provides the mathematical foundations of the theory of hyperhamiltonian dynamics, together with a discussion of physical applications. In addition, some open problems are discussed. Hyperhamiltonian mechanics represents a generalization of Hamiltonian mechanics, in which the role of the symplectic structure is taken by a hyperkähler one (thus there are three Kähler/symplectic forms satisfying quaternionic relations). This has proved to be of use in the description of physical systems with spin, including those which do not admit a Hamiltonian formulation. The book is the first monograph on the subject, which has previously been treated only in research papers.

This proceedings volume is a collection of papers presented at the International Conference on SPT2004 focusing on symmetry, perturbation theory, and integrability. The book provides an updated overview of the recent developments in the various different fields of nonlinear dynamics, covering both theory and applications. Special emphasis is given to algebraic and geometric integrability, solutions to the N-body problem of the "choreography" type, geometry and symmetry of dynamical systems, integrable evolution equations, various different perturbation theories, and bifurcation analysis.
