Goal(s)
The theory of dynamical systems makes it possible to predict, understand and control the evolution of complex phenomena modelled by a set of differential equations. Differential equations models arise naturally in numerous domains such as biology, electronics, mechanics… The goal of this course is to introduce the bases of this theory. Illustrations are given through various examples.
