The 17th Fall meeting of the Workshop in Dynamical Systems and Related Topics
will take place on
NOVEMBER 2-5, 2006.
All lectures will be at the Mathematics Department (McAllister building)
at the Penn State University Park campus reopened in 2005 after an extensive renovation.
The workshop will celebrate inauguration of the Journal of Modern
Dynamics.
Its principal theme will be

The workshop will
feature one-hour talks, some of
them by the editors of the journal,
highlighting the interface between dynamical systems and various
mathematical fields and disciplines
including those featured in the JMD announcement. In addition to the main theme there will be a geometry special session, and shorter talks by young participants, including advanced graduate students and post-docs. Invited Speakers:Dmitry Dolgopyat (Penn State and Maryland),Hillel Furstenberg (Hebrew University), Rostislav Grigorchuk (Texas A&M), Boris Kalinin (University of South Alabama), Gerhard Knieper (Ruhr University at Bochum) Dmitry Kleinbock (Brandeis), Jens Marklof (University of Bristol), Mark Pollicott (University of Warwick), Leonid Polterovich (Tel Aviv University), Ralf Spatzier (University of Michigan), Amie Wilkinson (Northwestern University), Alistair Windsor (University of Texas, Austin) Invited Speakers of Geometry session:Yuri Burago (St. Petersburg),Bruce Kleiner (Yale), Nikita Netsvetaev (St. Petersburg, visiting Penn State), Christina Sormani (CUNY), Jeremy Wang (University of Toronto) |
Requests for reimbursement of local expences will be considered by the organizers.
Participants will stay at the Atherton Hotel, Sleep Inn and Days Inn Hotels.
