This sensitivity is popularly referred to as the butterfly effect . Small differences in initial conditions (such as those due to rounding errors in numerical computation) yield widely diverging outcomes for chaotic systems, rendering long-term prediction impossible in general. This happens even though these systems are deterministic , meaning that their future behavior is fully determined by their initial conditions, with no random elements involved. In other words, the deterministic nature of these systems does not make them predictable. This behavior is known as deterministic chaos, or simply chaos Chaotic behavior can be observed in many natural systems, such as the weather. Explanation of such behavior may be sought through analysis of a chaotic mathematical model , or through analytical techniques such as recurrence plots and Poincaré maps Chaos theory is applied in many scientific disciplines: mathematics programming microbiology biology ... psychology , and robotics Chaotic behavior has been observed in the laboratory in a variety of systems including electrical circuits lasers oscillating chemical reactions ... fluid dynamics , and mechanical and magneto-mechanical devices, as well as computer models of chaotic processes. Observations of chaotic behavior in nature include changes in weather

Mentor: Well, that is one definition of chaos, but the term chaos is also used to express a mathematical theory. You are thinking of chaos in the vernacular sense, but for this activity it is representing a mathematical idea. Student: OK, I'll try to think of it as a mathematical term. In that case, what is chaos Mentor: Let's see if you can figure it out. Chaos can be present in many ways. In the Chaos Game it's present when even though the result of each individual throw of the die is unpredictable there is an overall pattern resulting from many throws of the die. In the

12. In The Wake Of Chaos (Stephen Kellert) - Book Review
    Short review of book exposing the actual philosophical implications of chaos theory.  
    http://dannyreviews.com/h/Wake_of_Chaos.html
    
    Extractions: Unpredictable Order in Dynamical Systems The University of Chicago Press 1993 A book review by Danny Yee "Chaos" has rapidly approached "quantum" as the favourite scientific buzz-word of crackpots, pseudo-scientists, and others of that ilk. Even in the humanities and social sciences chaos theory is less often used to model phenomena than invoked as support for outré metaphysical claims or sweeping generalisations about the demise of Western science. As an exposition of the philosophical implications of chaos theory, Kellert's In the Wake of Chaos is therefore an important work. Kellert begins by defining chaos theory as "the qualitative study of unstable aperiodic behavior in deterministic nonlinear dynamical systems". He goes on to explain this in non-technical language, but he doesn't provide a general introduction to chaos theory: readers are expected to have read at least popular accounts of the subject. Chapter two addresses the topics of predictability and sensitive dependence on initial conditions. Kellert argues that the problems of prediction raised by chaos theory require a new form of impossibility, between

During a bank heist with a hostage situation, Conners is assigned in charge of the operation with the rookie Shane Dekker as his partner. The thieves, lead by Lorenz, apparently do not steal a penny from the bank. While chasing the gangsters, the police team disclose that they planted a virus in the system, stealing one billion dollars from the different accounts, using the principle of the Chaos Theory. Further, they find that Lorenz is killing his accomplices.

    Extractions: The idea that many simple nonlinear deterministic systems can behave in an apparently unpredictable and chaotic manner was first noticed by the great French mathematician . Other early pioneering work in the field of chaotic dynamics were found in the mathematical literature by such luminaries as Birkhoff Cartwright Littlewood Levinson ... Smale , and Kolmogorov and his students, among others. In spite of this, the importance of chaos was not fully appreciated until the widespread availability of digital computers for numerical simulations and the demonstration of chaos in various physical systems. This realization has broad implications for many fields of science, and it is only within the past decade or so that the field has undergone explosive growth. It is found that the ideas of chaos have been very fruitful in such diverse disciplines as biology, economics, chemistry, engineering, fluid mechanics, physics, just to name a few. Chaos is a multidisciplinary science, and this is reflected in the fact that the members of the group are affiliated with diverse departments and institutes: Since the mid-1970s, the Chaos Group at Maryland has done extensive research in various areas of chaotic dynamics ranging from the theory of
