FAQs
- Are there any other text books you might recommend? I wish there was a book - but this is an advanced, active research area, so I am reading a broad range of books and asrticles myself: here is my library, here are the working notes for ChaosBook, and here is how you could help the project :) Try clicking through links on ChaosBook.org/FAQ. General references are discussed here. And then in every chapter, I try to cite the sources I found helpful in the remarks. I'll update that whenever students tell me that they found some other sources helpful.
- Is statistical mechanics a prerequisite? No. But every little bit helps.
-
Is this course available in the Power Point format?
Yes.
If you do not get it, here is the blackboard version for 4th graders (yes Olivia, the zeta function on the blackboard is taken from the ChaosBook.org)
