The shape of chaos: geometric advances in partially hyperbolic dynamics. This project aims to use recent advances in geometry and topology to discover new forms of chaotic dynamical systems and further classify the forms of chaos which are possible. Many systems in nature exhibit chaotic dynamics as they change in time. Not all systems are chaotic in the same way, and identifying the form of chaos and its qualitative properties is crucial to truly understanding the system. Chaotic dynamics aris ....The shape of chaos: geometric advances in partially hyperbolic dynamics. This project aims to use recent advances in geometry and topology to discover new forms of chaotic dynamical systems and further classify the forms of chaos which are possible. Many systems in nature exhibit chaotic dynamics as they change in time. Not all systems are chaotic in the same way, and identifying the form of chaos and its qualitative properties is crucial to truly understanding the system. Chaotic dynamics arise in chemical reactions, celestial mechanics, industrial mixing processes, fusion reactors, and many other processes. This project will aid in predicting the possible long-term behaviours of these systems.Read moreRead less
Discrete integrable systems. Discrete integrable systems are a fundamental generalisation of traditional integrable systems. This project, combining 5 world experts from 3 countries and 2 early career researchers, will expand and systematise this new interdisciplinary field, and will place Australia at the forefront of this intensive international activity.
New Frontiers and Advances in Discrete Integrable Systems. Integrable systems boast a long and venerable history, and have such famous members as the Kepler system, the Korteweg-de Vries equation, and the sine-Gordon equation. More recently, interest in integrable systems has expanded to include systems with discrete time, that is, ordinary difference equations (or maps) and integrable partial difference equations. These discrete integrable systems are arguably more fundamental than the continuo ....New Frontiers and Advances in Discrete Integrable Systems. Integrable systems boast a long and venerable history, and have such famous members as the Kepler system, the Korteweg-de Vries equation, and the sine-Gordon equation. More recently, interest in integrable systems has expanded to include systems with discrete time, that is, ordinary difference equations (or maps) and integrable partial difference equations. These discrete integrable systems are arguably more fundamental than the continuous-time ones. Based upon recent breakthroughs this study will combine analysis, geometry, and computer algebra to expand and systematise this new interdisciplinary field of discrete integrable systems.Read moreRead less
