Schöll E., Klapp S.H.L., Hövel P. (Eds.) Control of Self-Organizing Nonlinear Systems

Springer International Publishing, Switzerland, 2016. — 478 p. — ISBN: 9783319280271This book summarizes state-of-the-art research on the control of self-organizing nonlinear systems by a selection of contributions from leading international experts in this new emerging field. The first focus concerns recent methodological developments from both the physical and the mathematical side, including control of networks and of noisy and time-delayed systems. As a second focus, the book features novel innovative concepts of application including control of quantum systems, soft condensed matter, biological systems, and complex networks. Special topics reflecting the active research in the field are the analysis and control of chimera states in classical networks and in quantum systems, the mathematical treatment of multiscale systems, the control of colloidal and quantum transport, and the control of epidemics and of neural network dynamics.
The International Conference on Control of Self-Organizing Nonlinear Systems held from August 25–28, August 2014 in Rostock-Warnemünde, Germany, was organized by the Collaborative Research Center (Sonderforschungsbereich) SFB 910 Control of Self-Organizing Nonlinear System—Theoretical Methods and Concepts of Application, Berlin, to provide a forum for such topics.Theoretical Methods
