Complexity science is the study of systems with many interdependent
components. Such systems - and the self-organization and emergent
phenomena they manifest - lie at the heart of many challenges of
global importance. This book is a coherent introduction to the
mathematical methods used to understand complexity, with plenty of
examples and real-world applications. It starts with the crucial
concepts of self-organization and emergence, then tackles
complexity in dynamical systems using differential equations and
chaos theory. Several classes of models of interacting particle
systems are studied with techniques from stochastic analysis,
followed by a treatment of the statistical mechanics of complex
systems. Further topics include numerical analysis of PDEs, and
applications of stochastic methods in economics and finance. The
book concludes with introductions to space-time phases and selfish
routing. The exposition is suitable for researchers, practitioners
and students in complexity science and related fields at advanced
undergraduate level and above.
