Abstract
This course aims to provide the student with a solid foundation in the theory of dynamical systems, the theory of bifurcations of multidimensional systems, and the necessary understanding of the approaches, methods, results, and terminology used in modern literature on applied mathematics. In fact, the course completed is enough to conduct a rather complicated bifurcation analysis of dynamic systems arising in applications. In this course, we try to provide the student with explicit procedures for applying general mathematical theorems to specific research problems.
