Instability and Chaos in Spatially Homogeneous Field Theories

Mathematical Physics 2009-10-31 v1 math.MP

Abstract

Spatially homogeneous field theories are studied in the framework of dynamical system theory. In particular we consider a model of inflationary cosmology and a Yang-Mills-Higgs system. We discuss also the role of quantum chaos and its application to field theories.
