Differential Delay Equations: Theory and Applications

10:00 AM-12:00 PM
Room: Ballroom I

This minisymposium will focus on recent developments in the theory and applications of differential-delay equations. The speakers will describe applications from high-dimensional systems (neural networks, networks of lasers) and engineering applications such as cutting tool dynamics. They will discuss theoretical studies involving traveling waves and bifurcation and anticipate that the presentations will appeal to researchers with an interest in infinite dimensional dynamical systems and to those concerned with the applications.
