Relativistic chaos

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In physics, relativistic chaos is the application of chaos theory to dynamical systems described primarily by general relativity, and also special relativity.

Barrow (1982) showed that the Einstein equations exhibit chaotic behaviour and modelled the Mixmaster universe as a dynamical system. Later work showed that relativistic chaos is coordinate invariant (Motter 2003).
