Abstract

Very simple mathematical equations can give rise to surprisingly complicated, chaotic dynamics, with behavior that is sensitive to small deviations in the initial conditions. We illustrate this with a single recurrence equation that can be easily simulated, and with mixing in simple fluid flows.
