Plumeria & Tiare (Salon 9 & 10)
Understanding the dynamics of biomolecules, such as proteins and DNA, is becoming an increasingly important task for both experimentalists and theoreticians. A well-known example is the problem of protein folding, in which one determines the three-dimensional structures of proteins from their one-dimensional amino acid sequences. From a dynamical system point of view, the associated systems are very complex, certainly nonlinear, but high-dimensional and noised as well. In this minisymposium, the speakers will explore the relation between the complex dynamics of biomolecules and those of traditional nonlinear dynamical systems.
