Continued Fractions, Interval Exchanges and Applications to Geometry
Centro di Ricerca Ennio De Giorgi, Pisa, Italy
June 11-14, 2013

Participants are requested to register on the website of the conference:  Registration

We would also like to inform you that on this occasion we will make some funds available to offer financial support to a number of selected young researchers and students.  If you wish to propose a contributed talk, please send an abstract to dynsys.pisa@gmail.com.

***Deadlines***
* Application for financial support and talk proposal: March 31
* Registration: May 25

The workshop will focus on the interplay between dynamical systems and arithmetic, and in particular on the study of arithmetic algorithms of significance in dynamics and geometry. Since the discovery of a relation between the continued fraction algorithm and the geodesic flow on the modular surface, a vast field of research has developed whose main goal is to understand the dynamics of geometric flows in terms of discrete arithmetic algorithms. Of particular importance in this picture are interval exchange transformations, which code the Teichmuller geodesic flow. In the workshop, we will discuss recent developments in the metric theory of continued fractions and their various generalizations (one- and multidimensional), as well as interval exchange maps and their applications to Teichmuller theory.

We are looking forward to your participation.

The organizers,
Stefano Marmi, Carlo Carminati, Giulio Tiozzo

Advanced School and Workshop in Real and Complex Dynamics
Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics, Trieste, Italy
May 20 - 31, 2013

The Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) is organizing an Advanced School and Workshop in Real and Complex Dynamics, to be held from 20 to 31 May 2013, in Trieste, Italy. It will be directed by M. Lyubich (Stony Brook), J. Smillie (Cornell), S. van Strien (Imperial College) and S.Luzzatto (ICTP).

NATURE AND PURPOSE
Dynamical Systems is a very broad field with many applications. This activity will focus on some advanced topics in dynamics and so will be suitable for mathematicians who have a strong background and are ambitious and interested in developing their research in dynamical systems in a solid and rigorous direction.

The first week of the activity is devoted to a school giving an overview of current research topics in real and complex dynamics. Four intensive courses will be given.

One - Dimensional Real Dynamics (S. van Strien)
Two - Dimensional Real Dynamics (M. Martens)
One - Dimensional Complex Dynamics (M. Lyubich)
Two - Dimensional Complex Dynamics (J. Smillie)

The second week will be an international workshop, where leading experts will report on the newest developments in the field of Real and Complex Dynamics.

Invited Speakers: Marco Abate (Pisa), Artur Avila (IMPA), Eric Bedford (Indiana), Araceli Bonifant (Rhode Island), Xavier Buff (Toulouse), Arnaud Cheritat (Toulouse), Welington de Melo (IMPA), Tien-Cuong Dinh (Jussieu), Romain Dujardin (Polytechnique, Paris), Denis Gaidashev (Uppsala), Anton Gorodetsky (Irvine), John Hubbard (Cornell), Jeremy Kahn (Brown), Vadim Kaloshin (Maryland), Stefano Marmi (Scuola Normale Superiore,Pisa), John Milnor (Stony Brook), Volodia Nekrashevich (Texas A&M), Enrique Pujals (IMPA), Maria Saprykina (Stockholm), Weixao Shen (Singapore), Mitsuhiro Shishikura (Kyoto), Nessim Sibony (Paris-Sud), Tetsuo Ueda (Kyoto), Michael Yampolsky (Toronto), Jean-Christophe Yoccoz (Collège de France).

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 31, 2012. All participants are cordially invited to submit a paper or a survey to
this volume.

You can download the poster of the meeting from
