The answer after a lunch with Arnol'd

Gábor Domokos has written two papers in the 2006 fall issue of The Mathematical Intelligencer, one of them with Péter Várkonyi, on results that arose in answer to a question posed by Arnol'd. Springer has been so kind to permit us reproducing these publications: "My Lunch with Arnol'd" by Gábor Domokos, pages 31-33, and "Mono-monostatic bodies: The answer to Arnold's question" by Péter Várkonyi and Gábor Domokos, pages 34-38, of The Mathematical Intelligencer 28(4) (2006).

Topics in Nonlinear Dynamics and Complexity

In the week of February 19-23, 2007, a workshop was held in Puebla, Mexico on "Topics in Nonlinear Dynamics and Complexity". The workshop brought together physicists and applied mathematicians working in nonlinear dynamics and related complex systems. Mike Henderson (IBM T. J. Watson Research Center) was there and reports on the meeting.

Nomination of Editors for the Encyclopedia of Dynamical Systems

In addition to 'Scholar' and 'Curator' Scholarpedia now solicits volunteers for the role of 'Editor'. Editors of Scholarpedia will be elected by the public based on their scholarly achievements and reputation in the field (using the same procedure as election of authors).

A brief biography of Carmen Chicone

Carmen Chicone is well known for his research in dynamical systems and applied mathematics. In May 2006, a Dynamical System Workshop was held at the University of Missouri-Columbia in honor of Carmen Chicone's 60th birthday (see also the report in DSWeb Magazine). Yuri Latushkin and Weishi Liu give an overview of his work to date.
