Multistability and tipping: From mathematics and physics to climate and brain—Minireview and preface to the focus issue
Ulrike Feudel, Alexander N. Pisarchik, Kenneth Showalter
Source abstract
Multistability refers to the coexistence of different stable states in nonlinear dynamical systems. This phenomenon has been observed in laboratory experiments and in nature. In this introduction, we briefly introduce the classes of dynamical systems in which this phenomenon has been found and discuss the extension to new system classes. Furthermore, we introduce the concept of critical transitions and discuss approaches to distinguish them according to their characteristics. Finally, we present some specific applications in physics, neuroscience, biology, ecology, and climate science.
