Mathematics
Nonlinear Dynamics Seminar Series
Wednesday 2.00pm, in Lion Gate Building, room LG2.4a.
Our Dynamics research seminar is a mixture of presentations by external speakers, and informal presentations and discussions. These seminars are organized by members of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Portsmouth and are open to anybody interested (current organizer: Jan Sieber).
