Thursday 9th June, h 16:00 Aula Magna, Dipartimento di Matematica, Pisa Vitaly Bergelson (Ohio State University) “Ergodic Ramsey Theory: the Meeting point of Dynamics and Combinatorics” Abstract: The goal of this talk is to demonstrate the dynamical underpinning of some old and new results in combinatorics and number theory. The results to be discussed include Schur’s theorem on Fermat equation over finite fields, theorems of van der Waerden and Szemeredi on arithmetic progressions and some of modern developments involving multiple recurrence along polynomials and applications to the patterns in primes.

The KdV Institute for Mathematics of the University of Amsterdam offers two Ph.D. positions in Dynamical Systems and Complex Analysis at the University of Amsterdam. Looking for candidates with a MSc degree in Mathematics. A strong background in analysis, and in particular in dynamical systems and/or complex analysis, is a plus. The official advertisement can be found here: https://www.uva.nl/en/research/phd/phd-vacancies/item/16-056_2-phd-candidates-in-analysis.html The positions are for 4 years and should lead to a Ph.

Prof. Heinz Hanssmann (University of Utrecht) “Families of hyperbolic Hamiltonian tori” Thursday 11 February 2016, 15.00 Dipartimento di Matematica (aula Dal Passo) Università di Roma “Tor Vergata” Abstract: In integrable Hamiltonian systems hyperbolic tori form families, parametrised by the actions conjugate to the toral angles. The union over such a family is a normally hyperbolic invariant manifold. Under Diophantine conditions a hyperbolic torus persists a small perturbation away from integrability. Locally around such a torus the normally hyperbolic invariant manifold is the centre manifold of that torus and persists as well.

The workshop “Dynamical systems in logic, complex analysis and ergodic theory” will be held in Pisa, from February 8 until 9, 2016. For all information see https://pagine.dm.unipi.it/workshoppra/

Wednesday 27th January 2016, h 15:00 Sala Conferenze, Collegio Puteano, Centro De Giorgi, Pisa Anna Miriam Benini (University of Roma Tor Vergata) “Permutable entire functions and multiply connnected wandering domains” Abstract: Let f and g be permutable transcendental entire functions. It is a long standing question whether the Julia sets of f and g are equal. The conjecture is true in the case that f,g are rational functions, and in the transcendental case the main issues are due to the presence of Baker Domains and Wandering Domains.
