Dynamical Systems and Their Applications
Institute of Mathematics of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, Ukraine
June 23 - 27, 2014

We are pleased to invite you to attend the International Conference “Dynamical Systems and Their Applications” organized by the Institute of Mathematics of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, which will be held in Kyiv on June 23-27, 2014. The topics of the conference include topological dynamics, ergodic theory, the theory of attractors and chaos, combinatorial and symbolic dynamics, the theory of fractals, bifurcation and stability theory, infinite-dimensional dynamical systems, and various kinds of applications, especially in mathematical physics.

Considerable attention will be given to combinatorial dynamics, which has its origin in the well-known Sharkovsky theorem on the coexistence of cycles (Ukrainian mathematical journal, 1964), and which in 2014 can celebrate its 50th anniversary.

A related abstract should be sent to cds@imath.kiev.ua in LaTeX format not later than May 15, 2014 (template can be downloaded from the conference web-site). Notification of acceptance will be sent not later than May 20, 2014.

The conference is sponsored by an RTG grant from the NSF and by the University of North Texas. It brings together researchers in descriptive set theory, ergodic theory, dynamical systems, and other related areas, and encourages research that crosses boundaries of various different fields.

Plenary talks will be given by:

Matthew Foreman (University of California, Irvine)
Alexander Kechris (California Institute of Technology)
Dmitry Kleinbock (Brandeis University)
Krystyna Kuperberg (Auburn University)
Justin Moore (Cornell University)
Christian Rosendal (University of Illinois at Chicago)
Mark Pollicott (University of Warwick)
Slawomir Solecki (University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign)
Simon Thomas (Rutgers University)

There will also be other invited and contributed talks. Full details are available at the conference website at http://math.unt.edu/rtgconference2014. If you have any questions (including if you would like to give a talk), please contact rtg@unt.edu.

We would like to particularly encourage graduate students and recent PhDs to participate. There will be a limited amount of financial support for distribution on a first-come, first-serve basis. An application form is available at the conference webpage. Applications received before April 1, 2014, will be given full considerations.

Thank you for your attention. We hope to see you in Denton in June.

School on Geometry and Dynamics
CIRM, Marseille
March 31 - April 4 2014

The school is expected to have a capacity of 60 participants, and we are at this time trying to secure a grant to fund travel expenses from the US in hopes that at least 20 of the participants come from the US on fully-funded tickets. All local expenses at CIRM are covered by CIRM itself and European grants.

The centerpiece of this school are 5 courses by mathematicians at the very forefront of research in topics within this realm. These courses will on one hand provide a foundation for students starting research on related topics, and on the other hand will provide a boost and guidance to those students (and post-doctoral researchers) already at work in this area or a related one. They are matched to complement each other in order to provide a broad picture of the research landscape and the connections between various parts of it---their range of expertise is quite distinct but also includes substantial overlaps. The lecturers have been chosen with attention to not only their expertise but also their ability and inclination to mentor students.

3rd International Conference on Dynamics, Games and Science
University of Porto (Portugal)
February 17-21, 2014

The 3rd International Conference Dynamics Games and Science 2014 - DGS III 2014, aims to bring together world top researchers and practitioners from the fields of Dynamical Systems, Game Theory and its applications to such areas as Biology, Economics and Social Sciences.

DGSIII represents an opportunity for MSc and PhD students and researchers to meet other specialists in their fields of knowledge and to discuss and develop new frameworks and ideas to further improve knowledge and science.

The conference will feature prominent keynote speakers in the main room, with several thematic sessions running in parallel, which may deviate from the main theme.  The last edition took place in Lisbon of  last year (August, 28 - September, 6, 2013), and counted with 18 keynote speakers, and 27 thematic sessions for a total of 117 thematic speakers.
