The Conley index theory: A brief introduction

Konstantin Mischaikow (1999)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

A brief introduction to the Conley index theory is presented. The emphasis is the fundamental ideas of Conley's approach to dynamical systems and how it avoids some of the difficulties inherent in the study of nonlinear systems.

Dynamical systems and shapes.

J.J. Sánchez-Gabites (2008)

RACSAM

Similarity:

This survey is an introduction to some of the methods, techniques and concepts from algebraic topology and related areas (homotopy theory, shape theory) which can be fruitfully applied to study problems concerning continuous dynamical systems. To this end two instances which exemplify the interaction between topology and dynamics are considered, namely, Conley’s index theory and the study of some properties of certain attractors.

The Conley index and countable decompositions of invariant sets

Marian Gidea (1999)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We define a new cohomological index of Conley type associated to any bi-infinite sequence of neighborhoods that satisfies a certain isolation condition. We use this index to study the chaotic dynamics on invariant sets which decompose as countable unions of pairwise disjoint (mod 0) compact pieces.

The Conley index for flows preserving generalized symmetries

Artur Pruszko (1999)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Topological spaces with generalized symmetries are defined and extensions of the Conley index of a compact isolated invariant set of the flow preserving the structures introduced are proposed. One of the two new indexes is constructed with no additional assumption on the examined set in terms of symmetry invariance.
