MIPS Conference n°5 - Entropy at infinity in chaotic dynamics

Pôle de Research MIPS conferences are designed to raise community awareness of new topics and technological innovations. 

Aimed at a wide audience - students and researchers from all disciplines - they feature the multidisciplinary expertise of the MIPS cluster, its partner clusters and structures, as well as national and international teams.

They are held on the first Friday of each month at 11:30 a.m., and are followed by a buffet for further discussion.

ENTROPY AT INFINITY IN CHAOTIC DYNAMICS
ENTROPY AT INFINITY IN CHAOTIC DYNAMICS

Barbara Schapira, Professor, IMAG

What is a dynamic system from the point of view of fundamental mathematics? How can we measure, understand and even control the resulting chaos?

During this lecture, we'll delve into the heart of dynamical systems, mathematical objects that model the evolution of a system over time. We'll see how entropy quantifies the chaotic nature of these systems. Then, we'll go a step further and explore the notion of entropy at infinity, a mathematical tool for controlling the chaos arising from trajectories escaping to infinity.
