4th Quadriennal International Conference on Dynamical Systems
Brief History and Main Topics
International meetings on Dynamical Systems have been organized at IMPA, on a quadriennal basis, since 1981. These meetings are attended by a large number of the most distinguished experts in this area and cover several active domains of Dynamics.
The present meeting is devoted mainly to the following topics:
- Fractal dimensions and homoclinic byfurcations;
- Strange attractor and invariant measures;
- Holomorphic dynamical systems;
- Dynamics of endomorphisms of the interval or the circle;
- Conservative dynamical systems and variational methods.
