(September 12-15, University of California, Santa Barbara)

The goal of this workshop is to bring international scientists from mathematics, physics and fluid mechanics together to discuss the latest developments in the field of set-oriented numerics and operator-theory for dynamical systems, as well as to promote possible applications. The workshop considers both theoretical foundations and practical aspects. This meeting will allow constructive discussions about the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches, and will facilitate the development of innovative ways to combine and improve the current state-of-the-art, as well as opening up new application fields.
