An International Workshop on Nonlinear Dynamical Systems with
Applications
July 15-18, 2002, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's
Organizers: Hermann Brunner and Xiaoqiang Zhao
This workshop --a follow-up meeting to the 5th Americas
Conference on DEs and Nonlinear Dynamics" (Edmonton,
July 7-12, 2002)-- will provide an opportunity for
researchers, scientists and graduate students in
fields of differential equations and dynamical systems with
applications to communicate current research results,
ideas and problems, to discuss future research directions,
and to initiate research collaborations in the small but
conducive setting of an Oberwolfach/ BIRS-type workshop.
Sponsors:
Canadian National Program Committee of the
Institutes(Fields Institute, CRM and Pacific Institute) and
AARMS(Atlantic Association for Research in Mathematical Sciences).
Topics:
- Asymptotic behavior in finite and infinite dimensional
dynamical systems;
- Special solutions in partial differential
equations(steady states, waves etc);
- Hamiltonian systems and topological dynamics;
- Bifurcations and chaos in physics and biology;
- Evolution equations and population dynamics;
- Numerical analysis of nonlinear differential equations
and dynamical systems.
