Journal

A handy bookmarklet

At RuG we have access to several academic journals. From inside the university network this access is transparent. When outside I must first authenticate through a proxy server. The latter is sometimes inconvenient. For example if I’m at home and find a paper through Google, then in order to access the PDF I should go to the RuG journals list and search again. Although this doesn’t take long it is somewhat inconvenient.

The hydrogen atom in 1:2 resonance

The paper with Olga Lukina and Dmitrií Sadovskií on «Most typical 1:2 resonant perturbation of the hydrogen atom by weak electric and magnetic fields» has been accepted for publication in Physical Review Letters.

Conference on the occasion of the thesis defense of Olga Lukina

On September 25 we are organizing an one-day conference on the occasion of the thesis defense of Olga Lukina. Olga has completed her thesis on «Geometry of torus bundles in integrable Hamiltonian systems».

Talk in Dynamics Days Europe 2008

On August 26 I presented the work with Dmitrií Sadovskií and Olga Lukina on the hydrogen atom in electric and magnetic fields during the Hamiltonian systems session of the Dynamics Days Europe 2008 conference that took place in TU Delft. The Hamiltonian systems session was organized by Henk Broer.

Talk in 5th European Congress of Mathematics

Last week I presented the work with Henk Broer and Easwar Subramanian on pulse coupled oscillator networks during the mini-symposium «Coupled Cell Networks» in the 5th European Congress of Mathematics . The mini-symposium was organized by Peter Ashwin, Ana Dias, and Jeroen Lamb.

Heteroclinic cycles between unstable attractors

The paper with Henk Broer and Easwar Subramanian on «Heteroclinic cycles between unstable attractors» has been accepted for publication in Nonlinearity.

Bernoulliborg

Dijon

Between 25 and 28 November I will visit the Institut Carnot de Bourgogne at Dijon and I will give a seminar on «Standard and fractional monodromy in physical systems». Update: The visit has been postponed to January.

Unstable attractors

The paper with Henk Broer and Easwar Subramanian on «Robustness of unstable attractors in arbitrarily sized pulse-coupled networks with delay» has been accepted for publication in Nonlinearity.

Update

It has been a long time without any news. A small update: IWI (the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science) has moved since September 1, 2007 to Bernoulliborg, our new building in the Zernike campus. You can find the new address at the homepage. If you are visiting from outside Groningen, take bus 11 or 15 from the train station and step off at Zernike. Bernoulliborg is the blue building in front of you.

On the road

From May 22 until June 2 I am visiting Université du Littoral at Dunkerque. Then, from June 16 until June 30 I will be in Montreal for the NATO ASI school on «Hamiltonian Dynamical Systems and Applications».

Hydrogen atom paper

The paper with Dmitrií Sadovskií and Boris Zhilinskií on «Classification of perturbations of the hydrogen atom by small static electric and magnetic fields» has been accepted for publication in Proceedings of the Royal Society A.
