Dynamical Systems Seminar- Billiards in Polygons and related dynamical systems
Friday, 3/1/2019, 2:00pm - 11:59pm
Abstract: We will continue our discussion about the dynamics of billiards in rational polygons. We will discuss and compare to related dynamical systems: rotations, interval exchange transformations, substitutions and geodesic flows on polygons.

Place: Rome 730
University Seminar: Logic Across Disciplines- Measuring Complexity in Computable Structure Theory
Friday, 2/22/2019, 5:00pm - 11:59pm
Speaker: Valentina Harizanov, GWU
Date and Time: Friday, February 22, 12:00-1:00PM
Dynamical Systems Seminar- Introduction to billiards
Friday, 2/22/2019, 2:00pm - 11:59pm
Abstract: We will begin our discussion about the topic of the dynamics of billiards: Think of a billiard (i.e, pool) table whose boundary is a piecewise smooth simple closed curve.
Dynamical Systems Seminar-On Penrose tilings and tiling dynamical systems: VI
Friday, 2/15/2019, 2:00pm - 11:59pm
Abstract: The set of Penrose tilings is “almost” parameterized by a 4-torus. The R^2 translation action is product of a pair of suspensions of Sturmian dynamical systems.

Title: Does Every Infinite Geometric Lattice of Finite Rank Have a Matching? A "Challenging Question" of Björner from 1976
