Symmetry in Chaos 2nd Edition Hardback: A Search for Pattern in Mathematics, Art and Nature - Hardcover
Inhaltsangabe
A striking full-colour book which explores how combining symmetry and chaos can lead to the construction of remarkable images. This book is an engaging look at the interplay of art and mathematics, and between symmetry and chaos. The underlying mathematics involved in the generation of the images is described.

Críticas
'An impressive and beautiful exploration of an impressive and beautiful area of mathematics – the interplay between order and chaos. The images are breathtaking, the mathematics fundamental. Symmetry in Chaos is an important book, a work of art, and a joy to read.' Ian Stewart, author of Why Beauty is Truth
'A classic in the interdisciplinary field of art and mathematics, this very well written book takes the ingenious idea of combining symmetry with chaos to construct stunning images that anyone can enjoy, in particular mathematicians, who can also appreciate the underlying mathematics. Beautiful art cannot be the result of just clever computer graphics. The artist must also have a keen sense of color and that intangible artistic sensibility, which is present in Symmetry in Chaos. Anyone interested in the relationship of art and mathematics should read this book.' Nat Friedman, Director, International Society of the Arts, Mathematics and Architecture
Biografía del autor
Michael Field has been a Professor at the University of Houston since 1992. He received his PhD in mathematics from the University of Warwick in 1970. His research interests include ergodic theory, coupled cell systems, the geometric theory of dynamical systems with symmetry and the mechanisms whereby symmetry can lead to complex dynamics in low dimensional systems.
Martin Golubitsky is Distinguished Professor of Mathematics and Physical Sciences at the Ohio State University, where he serves as Director of the Mathematical Biosciences Institute. He received his PhD in Mathematics from M.I.T. in 1970 and has been Professor of Mathematics at Arizona State University (1979–83) and Cullen Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at the University of Houston (1983–2008). Dr Golubitsky works in the fields of nonlinear dynamics and bifurcation theory studying the role of symmetry in the formation of patterns in physical systems and the role of network architecture in the dynamics of coupled systems. He has co-authored four graduate texts, one undergraduate text, two nontechnical trade books, and over 100 research papers.
