Nonlinear and stochastic dynamical systems
theory provides fundamental ideas and
tools for the modeling, analysis, and
prediction of complex phenomena.
Solutions to the important dynamical
problems increasingly require techniques from several areas of mathematics.
The research in these are as is becoming increasingly collaborative, especially
crossing country borders. In fact, rapid progress requires an organized
collaborative effort like this Workshop.
This workshop is the first U.S.-Asian workshop on Nonlinear Dynamics and Stochastic Partial Differential Equations. A delegation of over a dozen of U.S. mathematicians and scientists will attend the workshop. It will serve as a venue for developing communication and establishing collaborative research among research groups from U.S., China, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, and local regions Taiwan and Hong Kong.
The fields of nonlinear dynamics, stochastic
partial differential equations, and nonlinear analysis are inextricably
interwind. The associated research, ranging from pure to applied, is extremely
broad with many active groups in both U.S. and Pacific Rim countries. Asian
countries such as China and Japan already have strong researchers in these
fields, while others are on a path of development. This workshop will further
advance this development throughout the region, while training U.S. junior
mathematicians and students for international collaborative research.
Workshop Venue:
All presentations and discussions will be held in the Morningside
Center of Mathematics, Beijing, China.

Tentative Program:
Lodging:
The Guest Hotel of the Chinese Academy
of Sciences
Note: Overseas junior Chinese participants will stay in the Youth Apartments
of the Morningside Center
(Address: Zhongguancun, Bei Er Tiao #7, Beijing. Tel: (010) 6262-6465.)
It is about a 15-minute walk from the Guest Hotel to the Morningside
Center of Mathematics
where the workshop will be held.
Internet facilities
will be available for participants.
For Laptop users: You may need to buy a power plug adaptor, say, in
the stores at the Third
Level, International Terminal, Peking International Airport (PEK).

Visa:
You will receive a formal invitation letter for visa from Beijing soon.
Please get ready to apply for China entry visa in person at one of
the following locations (depending on your location):
Chinese Embassy in Washington DC
<http://www.china-embassy.org/visa/english/lq.htm>
Chinese Consulate in NYC
<http://www.nyconsulate.prchina.org/eng/lsqz/default.htm>
Chinese Consulate in Chicago
<http://chicago.china-consulate.org/eng/qzhz/>
Chinese Consulate in LA
<http://losangeles.china-consulate.org/eng/>
Chinese Consulate in Houston
<http://www.chinahouston.org/>
Chinese Consulate in Toronto
<http://toronto.china-consulate.org/eng/>
You can also apply for your China entry visa through private travel/passport/visa
service agencies (They can apply visas "in person" for you). This may be
useful if you live far away from a Chinese Consulate or the Chinese Embassy.
See, for example, some of the following links (found on Yahoo/Google
search).
This does not mean we recommend these service agencies. You may find
some other agencies
in your local area. You may call them to find out details (they charge
fees).
