Abstract

We give an introduction to the analysis of the dynamics of deterministic nonlinear systems from a systems and control point of view. In particular, we discuss the stabilizing or destabilizing effect of feedback interconnections in nonlinear dynamical systems. With the help of this machinery we explain two types of complex collective dynamics in networks of nonlinear systems.
