Loughborough University is seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the area of Smooth Ergodic Theory to conduct research under the direction of Dr Wael Bahsoun on an EPSRC funded project “Transfer operators and emergent dynamics in hyperbolic systems”. The project also involves collaboration with Prof. Mark Pollicott (Warwick) and with Prof. Carlangelo Liverani (Rome).
The appointee will be based in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Loughborough University.
Candidates should have a PhD in Mathematics and should be interested in conducting research on Smooth Ergodic Theory / Dynamical Systems via transfer operator techniques.
2021 Chapel Hill Ergodic Theory Workshop: Global Online Edition
The activities of the Virtual Ergodic Conference will take place in three consecutive weeks, from June 21 to July 9, 2021. While schedules are thought to adapt most time zones, these are specially fitted to North & South America (week 1), Europe & Africa (week 2) and Asia & Australia (week 3). The format will try to preserve the atmosphere of the Chapel Hill Ergodic Theory Workshops with some adaptations to match current virtual modalities.

Title: Dynamical rigidity of convex billiards
Abstract: Convex billiards are a classical topic in conservative dynamics. Typically, their dynamics is qualitatively very intricate, since it showcases a coexistence of hyperbolic dynamics and KAM phenomena. Understanding long-term statistical properties of the dynamics with the current technology is essentially an intractable problem. Here I venture in the opposite direction and I will discuss dynamical inverse problems: how much geometrical information can be extracted from the dynamics? More precisely: what can be deduced about the billiard table if one knows the lengths of all periodic orbits? The quantum version of this question has been famously stated as “Can one hear the shape of a drum?” In this talk I will review the latest results and describe the next steps in this direction. This is a joint project with Vadim Kaloshin.
A 6-month postdoctoral fellowship in Dynamical Systems has been announced at Orsay:
