In Zürich we have an active center for Dynamical Systems and Ergodic Theory. This website lists people, events, and scientific activities in the University of Zürich and ETH Zürich.
Announcements
We are delighted to announce that Wooyeon Kim successfully defend his PhD thesis, titled "Quantitative escape of mass estimates on the space of lattices", on Tuesday 3rd December. Best of luck in the future Wooyeon!
We are also pleased to welcome Yuval Yifrach, who recently began his postdoc at UZH.
Teaching
The members of the group offer normally a range of courses starting from bachelor level to graduate level. Interested students are advised to visit the Courses tab.
Events
We run a weekly research seminar and a working seminar, please visit our Seminar Tab.
For other events including talks, conferences, and reading groups please visit out Events Tab.
Research Topics
Research interests of members of the group include
- Homogeneous Dynamics, also in connection to
- Number Theory (Diophantine and equidistribution problems);
- Spectral Theory;
- Group Theory;
- Ergodic Theory of entropy zero systems, such as
- Area preserving flows (translation flows and locally Hamiltonians flows);
- Interval exchange maps and rational polygonal billiards;
- Time changes of parabolic flows;
- Infinite Ergodic Theory;
- Limit Theorems;
- Teichmüller Dynamics.
