Abstract
Asymptotic methods for non-linear diffusion equations

Juan Luis Vázquez (Universidad de Madrid)

(Syllabus)

The aim of the course if to present some aspects of the theory of nonlinear diffusion with emphasis on the asymptotic methods. The use of scaling groups, selfsimilarity and entropy functionals will be stressed.

Generic Bifurcations in Dynamical Systems

Marco Antonio Teixeira (Universidade Estatual de Campinas)

(Syllabus)

The main aim is to present some aspects of generic bifurcation of dynamical systems represented by vector fields defined in a manifold. Discussion on the Thom-Smale program will be developed.
