Invariant Manifolds in Oscillation Problems

10:00 AM-12:00 PM
Room: Wasatch A/B

Invariant Manifolds (center manifolds, hyperbolic manifolds, integral manifolds, etc) arise naturally in many applied problems such as nonlinear oscillations, communication systems and singular perturbations, in both finite and infinite dimensions. This minisymposium will focus on some recent development of the invariant manifolds theory along with some significant applications to physical problems. By having lectures in different areas of dynamical systems and applications, a primary goal of the minisymposium is to help further research interactions among researchers who are working on fundamental theory of invariant manifolds and applications of invariant manifolds to the qualitative study of differential equations and engineering problems.
