SIAM Conference on Applied Dynamical Systems

The SIAM Conference on Applied Dynamical Systems took place from 22-26 May 2005. This is arguably one of the broadest and most important meetings for mathematicians, engineers and scientists interested in nonlinear dynamics and its interdisciplinary applications.

COUPLED 60

The Coupled 60 workshop was held at the University of Houston, February 3-6, 2005. The workshop was devoted to the dynamics, classification, and applications of coupled systems, but simultaneously offered an opportunity to mark the 60th birthdays of five participants: Mike Field, Marty Golubitsky, John Guckenheimer, Phil Holmes, and Ian Stewart.

Dynamics of Structured Systems

The "Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach" is an international research centre situated in the middle of the Schwarzwald in the south-western part of Germany. The Institute organizes around 50 one-week workshops per year where about 60 people gather for talks, research, and the famous walk through the woods for the Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte. This is an excerpt of the official report on the workshop held December 14-20, 2003 that was organized by Wolf-Jürgen Beyn, Bernold Fiedler, and John Guckenheimer.
