Six years ago, in June 1977, the first international conference on
chaos in classical dynamical systems took place here in Como. For
the first time, physicists, mathematicians, biologists, chemists,
economists, and others got together to discuss the relevance of the
recent progress in nonlinear classical dynamics for their own
research field. Immediately after, pUblication of "Nonlinear
Science Abstracts" started, which, in turn, led to the Physica D
Journal and to a rapid increase of the research activity in the
whole area with the creation of numerous "Nonlinear Centers" around
the world. During these years great progress has been made in
understanding the qualitative behavior of classical dynamical
systems and now we can appreciate the beautiful complexity and
variety of their motion. Meanwhile, an increasing number of
scientists began to wonder whether and how such beautiful
structures would persist in quantum motion. Indeed, mainly
integrable systems have been previously con sidered by Quantum
Mechanics and therefore the problem is open how to describe the
qualitative behavior of systems whose classical limit is
non-integrable. The present meeting was organized in view of the
fact that scientists working in different fields - mathematicians,
theoretical physicists, solid state physicists, nuclear physicists,
chemists and others - had common problems. Moreover, we felt that
it was necessary to clarify some fundamental questions concerning
the logical basis for the discussion including the very definition
of chaos in Quantum Mechanics."
