Since the predecessor to this volume (LNM 1186, Eds. L.Arnold, V. Wihstutz)appeared in 1986, significant progresshas been made in the theory and applications of Lyapunovexponents - one of the key concepts of dynamical systems -and in particular, pronounced shifts towards nonlinear andinfinite-dimensional systems and engineering applicationsare observable. This volume opens with an introductorysurvey article (Arnold/Crauel) followed by 26 original(fully refereed) research papers, some of which have in partsurvey character.From the Contents: L.
