Historical Context
• the term ‘dynamical system’ originated from the field of Newtonian mechanics
• the evolution rule was given implicitly by a relation that gives the state of the system only a short time into the future.
system: x1, x2, x3, … (states as time increases)
Implicit relation: xn+1 = f(xn)
Source: Wikipedia
17th century
Dynamical Systems Cont.
• To determine the state for all future times requires iterating the relation many times—each advancing time a small step.
• The iteration procedure is referred to as solving the system or integrating the system.
Source: Wikipedia
• Once the system can be solved, given an initial point it is possible to determine all its future points
• Before the advent of fast computing machines, solving a dynamical system was difficult in practice and could only be accomplished for a small class of dynamical systems.

A Classic Dynamical System
The double pendulum
The model tracks the velocities and positions of the two masses. Source: Wikipedia
Evidences rich dynamical behavior, including chaotic behavior for some parameters.
Motion described by coupled ODEs.

The Double Pendulum
Chaotic: sensitive dependence upon initial conditions
Source: math.uwaterloo
These two pendulums start out with slightly different initial velocities.
State and State Space
• A dynamical system is a system that is changing over time.
• At each moment in time, the system has a state. The state is a list of the variables that describe the system. – Example: Bouncing ball
State is the position and the velocity of the ball
State and State Space
• Over time, the system’s state changes. We say that the system moves through state space
• The state space is an n-dimensional space that includes all possible states.
• As the system moves through state space, it traces a path called its trajectory, orbit, or numerical solution.
Dimension of the State Space
• n-dimensional
• As n increases, the system becomes more complicated.
• Usually, the dimension of state space is greater than the number of spatial variables, as the evolution of a system depends upon more than just position – for example, it may also depend upon velocity.
The double pendulum
State space: 4 dimensional
(What are the static parametersof the system?)
What are the4 changing variables (state variables) that the systemdepends upon?
Must completely describe the system at time t.
Modeling Change: Dynamical Systems
From your book:
‘Powerful paradigm’
Modeling Change: Dynamical Systems
Powerful paradigm:
future value = present value + change
equivalently:
change = future value – current value
Modeling Change: Dynamical Systems
Powerful paradigm:
future value = present value + change
equivalently:
change = future value – current valuefxfxxf )()(
Modeling Change: Dynamical Systems
Powerful paradigm:
future value = present value + change
equivalently:
change = future value – current value
change = current value – previous value
Modeling Change: Dynamical Systems
Difference equation:
describes change (denoted by ∆)
equivalently:
change = future value – current value
change=future value-present value
= xn+1 – xn
Describing Change (Discrete verses Continuous)

Inplicit Equations
Since dynamical systems are defined by defining the change that occurs between events, they are often defined implicitly rather than explicitly.
(Example: differential equations describe how the function is changing, rather than the function
explicitly)

Class Project: Dynamical System in Excel
In groups of 3, we’ll create a dynamical system using the “fill down” function in Excel.
I. In groups, decide on an interesting dynamical system that is described by a simple rule for the state at time t+1 that only depends upon the current state. (Markov Chain) Describe your system to the class.
II. Model your dynamical system in Excel by producing the states of the system in a table where columns describe different states and rows correspond to different times. (You may need to modify your system in order to implement it in Excel.)

Difference Equations(Homework Problem Example)
… consider a sequence
A={a0, a1, a2,…}
The set of first differences is
a0= a1 – a0 ,
a1= a2 – a1 ,
a2= a3 – a1, …
where in particular the nth first difference is
an+1= an+1 – an.

Markov Chain
A markov chain is a dynamical system in which the state at time t+1 only depends upon the state of the system at time t. Such a dynamical system is said to be “memory-less”. (This is the ‘Markov property’.)
