Semi-annual Workshop in Dynamical Systems and Related Topics

 

The 16th Fall meeting of the Workshop in Dynamical Systems and Related Topics
at Penn State will feature a special
Conference in honor of Michael Jakobson's sixtieth birthday.
The conference will take place on
OCTOBER 14-17, 2005 (Friday through Monday)
in room 114 of the newly renovated century old McAllister building of the Penn State Mathematics Department.

The workshop is sponsored by The Center for Dynamics and Geometry at Penn State.

 

Two of the four days of the conference will be dedicated to the real low-dimensional dynamics, the subject to which Jakobson made seminal contributions and where he exercised the strongest influence. The remaining two days will feature invited talks on a variety of subjects in dynamics and related areas by distinguished collaborators, colleagues and friends of Jakobson. There will be a banquet during the conference in Jakobson's honor.

Semi-annual Workshop in Dynamical Systems and Related Topics

 

Fall 2004 Workshop October 14-17, Penn State University
October 14: 122 Heritage Hall at the HUB-Robeson Center
October 15: 111 Wartik Laboratory
October 16-17: 110 Wartik Laboratory

 

This is the 15th Penn State meeting in the series of regular meetings dedicated to recent results in the theory of smooth dynamical systems, ergodic theory, symbolic dynamics, topological dynamics, Hamiltonian mechanics and related areas in differential geometry, differential equations, Lie theory and partial differential equations, and is sponsored by Penn State and the University of Maryland. It is intended to provide a focus of activities and a meeting place primarily for mathematicians from the northeast region working in this field.

The workshop will feature a special session on MEASURE RIGIDITY and the whole day session on RIEMANNIAN AND METRIC GEOMETRY on Sunday, October 17.  

Schedule of Talks

 

The workshop is funded by the National Science Foundation and The Center for Dynamics and Geometry at Penn State.

Participants will stay at the Sleep Inn and Days Inn Hotels .

The conference organizers are Anatole Katok and Svetlana Katok.  The conference staff assistant is Hope Shaffer. To request further information about participating in the workshop and/or giving a talk, please send email to shaffer@math.psu.edu.

Sheldon Newhouse.
We plan to celebrate achievements
of Sheldon Newhouse in connection
with his recent sixtieth birthday.
Saturday and Sunday are devoted
to this celebration.

This is the 14th Penn State meeting in the series of regular meetings dedicated to recent results in the theory of smooth dynamical systems, ergodic theory, symbolic dynamics, topological dynamics, Hamiltonian mechanics and related areas in differential geometry, differential equations, Lie theory and partial differential equations, and is sponsored by Penn State and the University of Maryland. It is intended to provide a focus of activities and a meeting place primarily for mathematicians from the northeast region working in this field. We plan two major focuses this year.

Recently there have been many new results on applications of dynamics, especially in billiards and number theory. We plan to have a special session on Friday on this topic.

SCHEDULE OF TALKS

The workshop is funded by the National Science Foundation and The Center for Dynamical Systems at Penn State.

It is intended to provide a focus of activities and a meeting place primarily for mathematicians from the northeast region working in this field.

This year's meeting is the first part of John Mather's fest organized on the occasion of his 60th birthday to be followed by a conference at Princeton University on October 17-20. We plan to have talks related to Mather's work given by some prominent mathematicians.

The workshop is funded by the National Science Foundation and The Center for Dynamical Systems at Penn State. Beginning in the Fall 2000, NSF support has been increased from $6,000 to $8,000.

The meeting will start on Saturday, Oct 12 at 9:00 am (please, note that the start time has changed) and will end by the lunchtime on Tuesday, Oct 15th.  Please, note that this year's meeting will be held  in  the Thomas Building located on Penn State campus, and not at the Atherton Hotel. Most participants will stay at the Sleep Inn Hotel.

The conference organizers are Svetlana Katok and Yasha Pesin. The conference staff assistant is Hope Shaffer. To request further information about the workshop please send email to dsws@math.psu.edu. A copy of your message will be sent to all organizers and the conference staff assistant.
