Progress in Dynamics
Institut Henri Poincaré, Paris
November 23-27, 2009

The scope of the conference will be wide, but it will emphasize specific problems in dynamical systems, smooth ergodic theory, and related topics, including differential geometry, group theory and number theory, to name a few, that have seen much progress, but where significant problems vital to the field remain open. Specific examples are the Katok entropy rigidity conjecture for geodesic flows of negatively curved manifolds, the Boltzmann ergodic hypothesis, Liouvillean phenomena, the construction of metrics with ergodic geodesic flow, smooth rigidity of actions of abelian groups of higher rank. We will honor Anatole Katok on the occasion of his 65th

The conference will act as a catalyst for research in mathematics and its applications, providing a venue for established scholars to interact - not only with each other, but also with the junior scholars that will play an essential role now and in the years to come. Accordingly, there will be an emphasis on involving young mathematicians in dynamical systems.

Limited support for participants is expected to be available. Recent recipients of doctoral degrees, women, and members of traditionally underrepresented groups are particularly encouraged to apply.

Dynamics and Geometry of Teichmuller space (honoring the 60th birthday of Howard Masur)
CIRM in Luminy (France)
June 22 - 26, 2009

We shall try to follow the tradition of the conference on a similar subject held in Luminy in 2003. In particular, we are planning to have four one-hour talks a day: two talks in the morning (at 10:00 and at 11:15) and two talks in the afternoon (16:00 and 17:15) keeping Thursday afternoon free.

We hope that a schedule of four one-hour lectures a day would leave enough time for direct contacts and discussions and for exploring the beauty of the natural park of Luminy, of its mountains, and of its famous calanques (Mediterranean fjords).

A short school (Thursday-Friday-Saturday, June 18-20) preceding the conference destined to young researchers (mostly graduate students) is intended to help them to get prepared for the conference.

For further details, see the conference webpage: https://web.archive.org/web/20150923210903/http://www.cpt.univ-mrs.fr/~m...

Hoping to see you in Luminy this summer
A. Eskin, P. Hubert, E. Lanneau, A. Zorich
