Recent Progress in Lagrangian & Hamiltonian Dynamics
Ecole normale Superieure de Lyon
June 4 - 9, 2012

A conference in honor of John Mather's 70th Birthday

This is the first announcement for the conference. People interested should send a mail at conference.mather70 AT ens-lyon.fr to receive the second announcement which will give a link for registration on the web page. We can support some local expenses for some people (mainly room and lunch), however if participants can use their own funds we will be able to support more people. We apologize for multiple copies sent to the same person. Please advertise widely around you.

PLEASE REPLY ONLY TO THE FOLLOWING EMAIL:

Progress and Problems in Dynamics
University of Houston, Medical Center, Hilton, Houston TX
May 14 - 16, 2012

The aim of the workshop is to review progress and potential topics ripe for cross fertilization and development in the areas of probabilistic dynamics, network dynamics and hybrid dynamic systems.  Participants include a core of experts in the modern statistical theory of dynamical systems complemented by experts in specific areas in dynamics and applications (heteroclinic phenomena, cycling chaos, adaptive networks, control, spatially extended systems, and piecewise smooth dynamics).

A priority of the workshop is to involve graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty interested in dynamics and applications.  We anticipate being able to fund travel and accommodation for members of this group (see under support below and note that we expect to know the funding situation in the very near future; we strongly recommend applying now for support).

The workshop will take place at the Hilton, Houston Medical Center.  So as to encourage interactions between participants, there will be no parallel sessions and talks will be structured so as to give ample time for discussion (see also under accommodation below).

* QFT and string theory (Kevin Costello, Northwestern University)
* Rational homotopy theory (John Morgan, Simons Center for Geometry and Physics)
* Fluid Dynamics (Alexander Shnirelman, Concordia University)
* Rough Geometry (Bruce Kleiner, Courant Institute)
* Renormalization (Artur Avila, CNRS and IMPA, and Misha Lyubich, IMS)
* Sullivan's Dictionary (Dick Canary, University of Michigan)

Frontiers in Complex Dynamics: Celebrating John Milnor's 80th birthday
BIRS and Banff Conference Centre, Alberta, CA
February 20-26, 2011

The conference will be held at the Banff Center, with some participants staying at the adjacent Banff International Research Station.

Objectives:

    To foster interaction among researchers in holomorphic dynamics and allied fields such as several complex variables, Teichmüller theory, self-similar groups, arithmetic dynamics, symbolic dynamics, hyperbolic and algebraic geometry, statistical physics, etc.
    To use this interaction for designing new mathematical tools that can aid in the progress in holomorphic dynamics, especially in understanding and building models of multi-dimensional parameter spaces.
    To involve graduate students and younger researchers into discussions with more senior mathematicians. This interaction will be beneficial for their scientific growth, and will inject new fresh ideas into the field.
    To celebrate John Milnor's 80th birthday: his influence on the field of holomorphic dynamics cannot be overestimated.

Winter School in Complex Analysis and Geometry
CIRM (Luminy, France)
January 31, 2011 - February 5, 2011

The school will consist of three courses :

    "Kahler Geometry and convexity" by Bo Berndtsson,
    "The Cremona group" by Charles Favre,
    "Hardy spaces of Dirichlet series and function theory on polydiscs" by Kristian Seip.


The school will be followed up by KAWA 2.1, a Workshop in Complex Analysis and Geometry.

The workshop will consist in a dozen of 45' talks. We welcome proposals for talks for this workshop.

The Winterschool will start on Monday morning, the 31st of January 2011, and will end right after lunch, Thursday the 3rd of February 2011. The Workshop will start Thursday the 3rd of February 2011 in the afternoon and end Saturday the 5th. Both events will be hosted by CIRM, in the campus of Luminy (Marseille, France), see http://www.cirm.univ-mrs.fr/index.html/?lang=en and it will be part of the thematic month "Complex and Riemannian Geometry" see http://www.latp.univ-provence.fr/geom2011/index.php/welcome
