"Statistical physics of social dynamics: opinions, semiotic dynamics and language"
Directors: Vittorio Loreto and Luc Steels
Satellite Workshop of STATPHYS 2007 (9-13 July 2007).
Statistical mechanics has proven to be a very fruitful framework to describe phenomena outside the realm of traditional physics. The last years have witnessed the attempt by physicists to study phenomena which heavily rely on human behavior, like the dynamics of financial markets and the emergence of collective organization in social systems. Social interactions are usually local: every individual interacts with a limited number of its peers, which is negligible as compared with the total number of people inside a community. In spite of that, human societies are characterized by a number of stunning global regularities. There are remarkable transitions from disorder to order, like the emergence of a common language/culture or the creation of a consensus about a specific topic. The conference will specifically focus on three major research lines, i.e. opinion dynamics, cultural dynamics and the evolution of language.

This summer school is supported by the Austrian Science Foundation (FWF) and is part of the National Research Network "Analytic Combinatorics and Probabilistic Number Theory".
The summer school is designed for PhD-students and young Post-Docs with some background in ergodic theory and number theory. We kindly ask you to distribute this announcement among young mathematicians that are interested in these topics.
In particular, the program provides four courses on recent developments in the interplay between dynamical systems and number theory:
○ Vitaly Bergelson: Ramsey Theory, Uniform Distribution, and Ergodic Theory
○ Manfred Einsiedler: Dynamics on Locally Homogeneous Spaces
○ Douglas Lind: Dynamics, Algebra, and Number Theory
○ Thomas Ward: Dynamical Properties of Commuting Automorphisms

International Conference in honor of Yakov Pesin on his 60th birthday
To celebrate Yakov Pesin's 60th birthday, the Conference "Nonuniformly Hyperbolic Dynamics and Smooth Ergodic Theory" will be held in Lisbon in June 25-29, 2007. You are cordially invited to participate.
Topics will include the subjects of his landmark works and those on which he exerted the strongest influence (including nonuniform hyperbolicity, smooth ergodic theory, partial hyperbolicity, thermodynamic formalism, dimension theory in dynamics, and related subjects).
In addition to the purely mathematical talks, Anatole Katok will speak with some recollections on the Moscow mathematical school in the seventies, early stages of Yakov Pesin's mathematical career and early
impact of his work.
