Chaos - The Interplay Between Stochastic and Deterministic Behaviour - Proceedings of the XXXIst Winter School of Theoretical Physics Held in Karpacz, Poland 13-24 February 1995 (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1995)

The study of chaotic behaviour of dynamical systems has triggered new efforts to reconcile deterministic and stochastic processes as well as classical and quantum physics. New efforts are made to understand complex and unpredictable behaviour. The papers collected in this volume give a broad overview of these activities. Readers will get a glimpse of the growing importance of Levy processes for physics. They will find new views on fundamental concepts of quantum physics and will see many applications of chaotic and essentially random phenomena to a number of physical problems."
