Houston Summer School on Dynamical Systems

该奖项支持参加2015年5月20日至28日在休斯顿大学举行的2015年休斯敦动力系统暑期学校。本次活动向研究生介绍了概率动力学和遍历理论的最新进展和新技术，并对动力学的基本领域进行了鸟瞰。该学院还涵盖了这些思想有用的其他领域的应用，如数学神经科学、统计力学和信息论。学校的核心包括四个系列讲座，涵盖统一双曲的主题；部分双曲率;抛物动力学与重整化；以及通过光谱间隙、耦合和锥的相关性衰减。这些讲座将由国际公认的动力系统研究人员：Boris Hasselblatt（塔夫茨大学）；Keith Burns（西北大学）；Jayadev Athreya (UIUC)；沃恩·克里门哈加（休斯顿）；马特·尼科尔（休斯顿）；威尔·奥特（《休斯顿》）；安德鲁·托罗克（休斯顿）。学校还包括关于高级主题和应用的进一步讲座，非正式复习课，问题课和项目课，特别强调最大限度地提高学生和讲师之间的互动，并提供大量的讨论机会。暑期学校网站：www.math.uh.edu/~climenha/2015-school.html

This award supports participation in the 2015 Houston Summer School on Dynamical Systems, taking place May 20-28, 2015 at the University of Houston. This event introduces graduate students to recent progress and novel techniques in probabilistic dynamics and ergodic theory, as well as giving a bird's-eye view of fundamental areas of dynamics. The school also covers applications to other areas where these ideas are useful, such as mathematical neuroscience, statistical mechanics, and information theory. The core of the school consists of four lecture series covering topics in uniform hyperbolicity; partial hyperbolicity; parabolic dynamics and renormalization; and decay of correlations via spectral gap, coupling, and cones. These lectures will be given by internationally recognized researchers in dynamical systems: Boris Hasselblatt (Tufts University); Keith Burns (Northwestern University); Jayadev Athreya (UIUC); Vaughn Climenhaga (Houston); Matt Nicol (Houston); Will Ott (Houston); Andrew Torok (Houston). The school also includes further lectures on advanced topics and applications, informal review sessions, problem sessions, and project sessions, with particular emphasis on maximizing interactions between students and lecturers and allowing plenty of opportunity for discussion.Summer school web site: www.math.uh.edu/~climenha/2015-school.html
