  • Final Printed Program and Abstracts
    2013 SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems 1 Final Program and Abstracts Sponsored by the SIAM Activity Group on Dynamical Systems The SIAM Activity Group on Dynamical Systems provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and information between mathematicians and applied scientists whose work involves dynamical systems. The goal of this group is to facilitate the development and application of new theory and methods of dynamical systems. The techniques in this area are making major contributions in many areas, including biology, nonlinear optics, fluids, chemistry, and mechanics. This activity group supports the web portal DSWeb, sponsors special sessions at SIAM meetings, organizes a biennial conference, and awards biennial prizes—the Jürgen Moser Lecture and the J. D. Crawford Prize. The activity group also sponsors the DSWeb Student Competition for tutorials on dynamical systems and its applications written by graduate and undergraduate students and recent graduates.

For those who did this long before modern science could explain the underlying mechanisms. For all their pain that we cannot see that is real. “Die Elementarkörnchen der Zellen, welche noch heute ihre analogen Vertreter in den primären Mikroorganismen haben und welche seit jenen Perioden in den Zellen existieren, vermögen nicht mehr sebständige Lebewesen zu werden.” “The elementary granules of cells, which still have their analogs in primary micro- organisms
