For the second consecutive year, the
Department
of Mathematics at
University of
Houston will host a Summer School on
Dynamical Systems, which will run from May
14-22, 2014.
The school is designed for graduate students and
will use short lecture courses, tutorial and
discussion sessions, and student projects to
explore some of the fundamental concepts of
dynamical systems. It will be accessible
to students without a background in dynamics,
but is also intended for students who have begun
studying dynamics and wish to learn more about
this field.
The school is
funded by an NSF grant, which will cover
travel and local expenses for all accepted
participants.
Short course topics
will include:
- Probability in dynamics (Matt Nicol)
- Dynamical systems with hyperbolic
behaviour (Vaughn Climenhaga)
- Convex cones and the Hilbert projective
metric (Will Ott)
- Statistical physics (Renato Feres)
- Spectral theory of dynamical systems
(Andrew Torok)
- Symbolic dynamics and C* algebras (Mark
Tomforde)
A schedule
for the school is now available.
