Periodic orbits near onset of chaos in plane Couette flow.

TL;DR: A symbolic dynamics for the orbits is introduced and it is shown that the ones that exist fall into the universal sequence described by Metropolis, Stein and Stein for unimodal maps.

Universal metric properties of bifurcations of endomorphisms

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown how this problem is similar to the renormalisation problem, and how the bifurcation velocity may be derived from a fixed-point theory.

Computational synergetics and mathematical innovation

TL;DR: In this article, it is demonstrated how the computer, used in a heuristic mode, has greatly augmented our understanding of the mathematics of nonlinear dynamical process, and the role of good graphics in enhancing the discovery and retention of new mathematical properties of equations is illustrated.

Non-linear transformation studies on electronic computers

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of non-linear transformations in Euclidean spaces are examined, and the invariant points, finite sets, and invariant subsets of the transformations and the means for obtaining them constructively are considered.
