ICTP-SAIFR Conference on Perspectives in Nonlinear Dynamics

PNLD 2019 will be a satellite to STATPHYS 27 which is being held from 8-12 July 2019 in Buenos Aires, Argentina in the preceding week.

Our main aim in having this meeting in São Paulo would be to focus on the open issues in Nonlinear science and to identify the directions in which the field is evolving. A second aim of the meeting is to bring together physicists working in the region and across the developing world.

Start time:  July 16, 2019

Ends on: July 19, 2019

Location: São Paulo, Brazil

Venue: IFT-UNESP

Topics for discussion that have been identified are

Recent developments in nonlinear dynamical systems (conservative and dissipative dynamics, noise and stochastic effects)
Spatiotemporal order and chaos
Synchronization, Control of Chaos and Communication
Nonlinearity in biological, socio-economic and technological systems
Dynamics on Networks and Multiplex networks
Ergodicity, mixing, turbulence and transport in passive scalar and active reacting flows
Computational Neuroscience
Climate dynamics
Social Networks, Urban computing

There is no registration fee
