The selection committee of the Michael Brin Dynamical Systems Prize for Young Mathematicians is seeking nominations of outstanding candidates for the 2026 prize (the 6th edition) which will be awarded this Fall.
The prize was established by Anatole Katok in the fall of 2015 to recognize outstanding contributions to dynamical systems made by researchers within a few years of their Ph.D. The eligibility for the prize is limited to researchers within 4 years of their Ph.
The Long Run–Topics in Ergodic Theory is a new international online seminar organized by Ilia Binder, Jacopo De Simoi, Zhiqiang Li, Federico Rodriguez-Hertz, and Mariusz Urbański. The seminar focuses on ergodic theory and runs on the second Tuesday of each month, featuring two speakers each time.
The organizers invite anyone interested to participate and to volunteer talks.
To get notified of upcoming seminars, send an email to subscribethelongrun@hotmail.com with the subject “Subscribe”.

The School of Mathematics and Statistics at UNSW Sydney advertises a two-year postdoctoral position.
The Postdoctoral Fellow will undertake research within a 3+ year Australian Research Council Discovery Project at UNSW Sydney. The project seeks to advance the field of extreme value theory for random dynamical systems through the development of novel techniques in functional analysis, operator theory, and ergodic theory. Applications of the new theory will include the analysis of nonstationary spatiotemporal data arising from weather and climate observations/models.
The Lille Dynamics and Geometry Conference will take place on September 8-10, 2026 at the Laboratoire Paul Painlevé of the University of Lille (France).
The confirmed speakers are: Karen Butt (University of Chicago), Albert Fathi (ENS Lyon), Ursula Hamenstädt (University of Bonn), Or Landesberg (Hebrew University of Jerusalem), François Ledrappier (Sorbonne University), François Maucourant (University of Rennes), Gabriel Rivière (University of Nantes), Federico Rodriguez-Hertz (Penn State), Ralf Spatzier (University of Michigan), Daren Wei (National University of Singapore).
The Second ISTA Summer School in Dynamical Systems will take place on September 28-30, 2026, in Strobl (Austria).
The school will consist of three mini-courses given by Kostiantyn Drach, Anna Florio, and Alfonso Sorrentino. There will also be a small number of contributed talks and a poster session.
The organization will cover local expenses of junior participants selected for the school, and will contribute to their travel expenses up to approximately 300 Euro.
This is to announce the Poisson 2026 Summer School and Workshop, which will be held in August in Belgium:
Poisson 2026 Summer School: 3-7 August 2026, Antwerp, further information on https://www.uantwerpen.be/nl/personeel/sonja-hohloch/private-webpage/conference-workshop/poissonschool2026/ Poisson 2026 Conference: 10-14 August 2026, Leuven, further information on https://wis.kuleuven.be/events/2026_poisson/poisson2026 This is the 14th in a series of international meetings on Poisson geometry aiming at bringing together researchers interested in Poisson geometry in a broad sense from all over the world.
This is the announcement of the conference “One-Dimensional Dynamics and High-Dimensional Networks” that will be held at the Centro di Ricerca Matematica Ennio De Giorgi, Pisa (Italy), on April 20-24, 2026.
The meeting will bring together researchers in dynamical systems, with an emphasis on fostering interdisciplinary exchange between experts in one- and low-dimensional dynamics and those working on high-dimensional networked systems. The conference aims to explore recent advances at the established intersection between these areas and to uncover new connections.
This is to announce the opening of the registrations for the Simons Semester “Continued Fractions, Fractals, Ergodic theory and Dynamics”, which will be held at IMPAN (Poland) on 27 April - 31 May, 2026. The event was announced here.
