Progress and Problems in Dynamics   May 14, 2012 - May 16, 2012
Medical Center, Hilton, Houston (University of Houston)

The aim of the workshop is to review progress and potential topics ripe for cross fertilization and development in the areas of probabilistic dynamics, network dynamics and hybrid dynamic systems.  Participants include a core of experts in the modern statistical theory of dynamical systems complemented by experts in specific areas in dynamics and applications (heteroclinic phenomena, cycling chaos, adaptive networks, control, spatially exptnded systems, and piecewise smooth dynamics).

A priority of the workshop is to involve graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty interested in dynamics and applications.  We anticipate being able to fund travel and accommodation for members of this group (see under support below and note that we expect to know the funding situation in the very near future; we strongly recommend applying now for support).

The workshop will take place at the Hilton, Houston Medical Center.  So as to encourage interactions between participants, there will be no parallel sessions and talks will be structured so as to give ample time for discussion (see also under accommodation below).

Recent Progress in Lagrangian & Hamiltonian Dynamics June 4, 2012 - June 9, 2012
Ecole normale Superieure de Lyon

A conference in honor of John Mather's 70th Birthday


This is the first announcement for the conference. People interested should send a mail at conference.mather70 AT ens-lyon.fr to receive the second announcement which will give a link for registration on the web page. We can support some local expenses for some people (mainly room and lunch), however if participants can use their own funds we will be able to support more people. We apologize for multiple copies sent to the same person. Please advertise widely around you.

Dynamical Systems: 100 years after Poincarщ  September 3, 2012 - September 7, 2012

Gijón, a seaside city in northern Spain

Early registration: 15/02/2012-15/06/2012
Abstracts submission: 15/02/2012-30/04/2012

The conference is organized by the Dynamical Systems Group at the University of Oviedo.The aim is to bring together a broad group of scientists working in the field of dynamical systems on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the death of Henri Poincarщ.

All topics related with dynamical systems are considered but focusing on local and global bifurcations in discrete and continuous dynamical systems, planar vector fields and celestial mechanics.
Applications to real-world problems will be highlighted. The conference will promote the diffusion of recent developments and future perspectives.

There will be ten keynote speakers, sixty-four 30-minutes contributed talks in two parallel sessions and also two poster sessions. Plenary speakers are experts chosen from different areas of Dynamical Systems.

In behalf of the Organizing Committee,

Santiago Ibсёez



New Trend in Dynamical Systems, October 1, 2012 - October 5, 2012
Salou, Catalonia, Spain
                   
The registration (including payment) period is already open. You may register in http://www.gsd.uab.cat/ntds2012/Registration.php

The deadline for registration is September 15, 2012. Also, the period of registration with reduced fee ends in July 15, 2012.

Unfortunately we only will be able to accept a limited number of participants due to lecture room capacity.

All the participants are invited to submit an abstract proposal for a talk (25 minutes plus questions) or a poster. Due to the fact that there are no parallel sessions there are just few slots for talks. To be able to have a final list of speakers as soon as possible we need to close the period for abstracts submission on April 30, 2012.

All abstracts that cannot be accepted for a talk will be automatically considered for the posters sessions, unless explicitly stated by the author.

The abstracts can be submitted at the page http://www.gsd.uab.cat/ntds2012/Submit.php

Young researchers (Ph. D. students or Ph. D. with  thesis dissertation after 01/01/2009) may ask for partial financial support.

The list of abstracts accepted for talks and posters will be made public before May 15, 2012.

There will be proceedings of the conference which will be published in a special volume of "Publicacions MatemУ tiques".

All the available information on these proceedings can be found in

http://www.gsd.uab.cat/ntds2012/Proceedings.php

The proceedings submission period is already open until December 31st, 2012. All participants are cordially invited to submit a paper or a survey to
this volume.
