This book presents Analytical and Approximate Methods for Complex Dynamical Systems and introduces ideas of discontinuous mapping treated as complex dynamical systems. Mathematicians of world-recognized Ukrainian scientific schools established by M.Krylov, M.Bogolyubov, Yu.Mitropolskiy, and A.Sharkovsky used to cooperate for writing the collective book whose purpose consists of illustrating a synergy of combining diverse (by idea and technique) constructive analytical and approximate approaches and methods in complex dynamical systems which are herein associated with mathematical models of networks, conflict/economic theories, sloshing, soft matter, and even levitating drops. Readers are facilitated to learn contemporary insights, fundamentals (Parts I and III), applications (Part II), and components of theories of bifurcation, synchronization/self-organization, collective dynamics, chaos, solitons, fractional differential equations, symmetry, reduced order modelling, and many others, that makes the book useful for both graduate and postgraduate students, lecturers, researchers, and even engineers dealing with multidimensional dynamic systems.
