Description:
This volume contains surveys and research articles by leading experts in several areas of dynamical systems that have recently experienced substantial progress. Some of the major surveys focus on symplectic geometry; smooth rigidity; hyperbolic, parabolic, and symbolic dynamics; and ergodic theory. Students and researchers in dynamical systems, geometry, and related areas will find this a fascinating look at the state of the art.

Lectures on Topics In One-Parameter Bifurcation Problemsby P. Rabier - Tata Institute of Fundamental Research
This set of lectures gives a synthetic exposition for the study of one-parameter bifurcation problems. By this, we mean the analysis of the structure of their set of solutions through the same type of general arguments in various situations.

Mathematical Principles of Dynamic Systems and the Foundations of Quantum Physicsby Eric Tesse - arXiv
This article will take up the question of what underlies the quantum formalism, whether it can be derived from simpler mathematical structures, and if so, what physical properties a system must possess in order for the formalism to hold.
