Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems Seminars

The Mathematics Department at Warwick has a strong research group in dynamical systems reflecting a reputation built up over many years and continuing into the present.

Currently the members in the Department working in this are interested mainly in 1-dimensional real and complex dynamics (A. Epstein, Kozlovski, Manning, van Strien), thermodynamic formalism (Pollicott), bifurcation theory (Baesens, Kozlovski, MacKay, Rand, Stewart, van Strien), smooth dynamical systems (Kozlovski, Manning, van Strien), dynamics applied to physical systems (Baesens, MacKay, J. Robinson, Gelfreich) dynamics applied to biology (Burroughs, Rand, Stewart), dynamics and computation (Barkley, Stuart).

There are also people in the Department with related interests (Series, Nazarenko, Elworthy, Tribe).

This wide interest within the Department for research in dynamical systems is reflected in the large number of topics that people in the Department study; for example, Julia sets, Hamiltonian systems, symmetry breaking bifurcations, biological models, coupled lattice maps, phase transitions, numerical methods for stochastic differential equations and so on.

There are weekly seminars on Tuesdays, as well as learning seminars organised around specific topics. Information about these can be obtained from the dynamics seminar pages. Graduate students may be admitted as regular students in the department or through the MIR@W programme.
