In mathematics, catastrophe theory is a branch of bifurcation theory in the study of dynamical systems; it is also a particular special case of more general singularity theory in geometry. Bifurcatio...

Rene Thom and Catastrophe Theory. Originated by the French mathematician Rene Thom in the 1960s, catastrophe theory is a special branch of dynamical systems theory. It studies and classifies phenomena characterized by sudden shifts in behavior arising from small changes in circumstances.

A CATASTROPHE THEORY MODEL; OF THE CONFLICT HELIX, WITH TESTS* This paper uses catastrophe theory--namely, the butterfly model--mathematically to structure the conflict helix. The social field framework and helix provide the substantive interpretation for the catastrophe theory;

Elementary catastrophe theory: an introduction Material from 1.8.01 expanded, starting 16.10.01. Catastrophe theory is difficult to understand if one wants to go beyond the surface, to the mathematical roots. Most biologists do not have the necessary mathematical knowledge for this, and they are not likely ever to...

The use of the expression 'Catastrophe Theory' was first conceived by the French mathematician Rene Thom in 1975 to describe a method that could model discontinuities in functions that were, as a rule, continuous.
