This book offers a modern updated review on the most important
activities in today dynamical systems and statistical mechanics by
some of the best experts in the domain. It gives a contemporary and
pedagogical view on theories of classical and quantum chaos and
complexity in hamiltonian and ergodic systems and their
applications to anomalous transport in fluids, plasmas, oceans and
atom-optic devices and to control of chaotic transport. The book is
issued from lecture notes of the International Summer School on
"Chaotic Dynamics and Transport in Classical and Quantum Systems"
held in CargA]se (Corsica) 18th to the 30th August 2003. It
reflects the spirit of the School to provide lectures at the
post-doctoral level on basic concepts and tools. The first part
concerns ergodicity and mixing, complexity and entropy functions,
SRB measures, fractal dimensions and bifurcations in hamiltonian
systems. Then, models of dynamical evolutions of transport
processes in classical and quantum systems have been largely
explained. The second part concerns transport in fluids, plasmas
and reacting media. On the other hand, new experiments of cold
optically trapped atoms and electrodynamics cavity have been
thoroughly presented. Finally, several papers bear on synchronism
and control of chaos.
The target audience of the proceedings are physicists,
mathematicians and all scientists involved in Chaos and Dynamical
Systems Theory and their fundamental applications in Physics and in
the Science of Complex and Nonlinear phenomena.
