Nonlinear dynamics as a field of models for nonlinear processes and systems include:

- Bifurcation theory

- Chaotic dynamics

- Fractals

- Neural networks

- Power laws

- Quantum entanglement

- Renormalization

- Solitons

- Synchronization of chaotic systems

- Synergetics

Nonlinear dynamics is a decisive development in all disciplines when strictly deterministic models are insufficient.

It has typically a transdisciplinarian character with applications in a broad range of fields from physical to biological and social sciences.
