Computer Algebra for Dynamical Systems and Celestial Mechanics

                             at 17th International Conference ACA'2011 to be held at Houston, Texas, U.S.A.

June 27-30, 2011

Session Organizers:

Victor Edneral(Moscow State University, Russia)

Aleksandr Myläri(Åbo Akademi University, Turku/Åbo,Finland)

Nikolay Vassiliev(Steklov Institute of Mathematics at St.Petersburg, Russia )

Overview:

Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Systems are traditional fields for applications of computer algebra. This session is intended to discuss Computer Algebra methods and modern algorithms in the study of general continuous and discrete Dynamical Systems, Ordinary Differential Equations and Celestial Mechanics.

The following topics, among others, will be considered:

1.      Stability and bifurcation analysis of dynamical systems

2.      Construction and analysis of the structure of integral manifolds

3.      Symplectic methods.

4.      Symbolic dynamics.

5.      Perturbation theories.

6.      Normal forms and programs for their computations.

7.      Integrability and nonintegrability of ODEs.

8.      Exact solutions and integrals.

9.      Families of periodic solutions.

10.  Computation of asymptotes of solutions and its program implementation.

11.  Deterministic chaos in dynamical systems.

12.  Computation of formal integrals.

13.  Computer algebra for celestial mechanics and stellar dynamics.

14.  Specialized computer algebra software for celestial mechanics.

15.  Topological structure of phase portraits and computer visualization.

16.  Discrete Dynamical Systems
