About this title

Synopsis

Insights into single perturbation phenomena have century-old roots in PoincarT's work in celestial mechanics. In these lecture notes prepared for the AMS short course offered in January 1998 in Baltimore, MD, the authors of a half dozen papers introduce the issues, mathematics, and implicit philosophy of single perturbations arising from diverse applications. Coverage includes: figuring out single perturbations after a first course in ODEs, the method of multiple scales, dynamical systems theory, and analysis of cellular oscillations. Annotation c.
