| Feb 9, 2010 at 4:33 | comment | added | Darsh Ranjan | I think curvature flow is a great example of a dynamical system (with good practical applications), but I'm not sure it really answers the question. Although the thing that evolves is (some representation of) a manifold, the space it lives on is just Euclidean space...right? | |
