Cari colleghi,

Vi ricordo che il prossimo colloquio di dipartimento si terrà lunedì prossimo 23 ottobre alle 16:00 (con qualche minuto di ritardo per far arrivare con calma chi avesse lezione fino alle 16) presso l’Aula Magna del dipartimento. Dopo il colloquio ci sarà un coffee break.

Speaker: Tien-Cuong Dinh (National University of Singapore)

Titolo: Dynamics of complex Hénon maps

Abstract: Hénon maps were introduced by Michel Hénon as a simplified model of the Poincaré section of the Lorenz model. They are among the most studied discrete-time dynamical systems that exhibit chaotic behavior. Complex Hénon maps in any dimension have been extensively studied over the last three decades, in parallel with the development of pluripotential theory. We will present the dynamical properties of these maps such as the behavior of point orbits, variety orbits, equidistribution of periodic points and fine ergodic properties of the systems. This talk is based on the work of Bedford, Fornaess, Lyubich, Sibony, Smillie, and on recent work of the speaker in collaboration with Bianchi and Sibony.

Cari saluti, Claudio Bonanno (per la commissione colloquia)
