Differential Equations and Dynamical System
Description
Topological dynamics and ergodic theory on low-dimensional spaces (Cantor set, topological graphs, surfaces), with special emphasis on symbolic dynamics. Characterization of typical dynamics in a topological approach.
Studies on complicated dynamics in a global setting (transitivity, mixing, exactness, specification property) and local structure (entropy, structure of minimal sets, limit sets and periodic points, dynamics of pairs and recurrence).
Attractors with complicated topological structure and strange attractors. Large basins of attraction, SRB (Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen) measures and shadowing property.
Computer assisted proofs for ODEs and dynamical systems. Celestial mechanics. Invariant manifolds and the stability/instability of dynamical systems.
Iterates of random-valued vector functions and limit theorems for Markov operators acting on spaces of measures.
Functional equations, Ulam type stability and its connections with the theory of fixed points. This stability focuses on the study of how approximate solutions of equations (e.g. integral, functional, differential, difference) differ from their exact solutions and whether they generate these exact solutions.
Properties and applications of set-valued maps which are additive up to a cone.
Study of nonlinear PDEs describing waves' evolution in pre-stressed granular media.
