Complex Dynamics: From Special Families to Natural Generalizations in One and Several Variables

Holomorphic dynamics is a vibrant field of mathematics that has seen profound progress over the past 40 years. It has numerous interconnections to other fields of mathematics and beyond. 

This semester will focus on three selected classes of dynamical systems: rational maps (postcritically finite and beyond); transcendental maps; and maps in several complex variables. The organisers will put particular emphasis on the interactions between each these, and on connections with adjacent areas of mathematics. 

Professor Mikhail Lyubich (Stony Brook) has been appointed as a Clay Senior Scholar to participate in this program.
