Heidelberg Symplectic Topics Seminar Winter 2021/22

The Seminar takes place on Wednesdays 14:15-15:45 in SR 3.

This year's topic is dynamical systems: Ergodic theory and dynamical zeta functions.


Heidelberg Symplectic Topics Seminar Summer 2021


The Seminar takes place on Wednesdays 14:15-15:45 in Zoom.

Assuming the speakers consent, the lectures are recorded. The videos are stored in Heibox.



Today we meet after the talk in Gathertown! Password: energy.
You will have to suffer through a short tutorial. Note that Zoom and Gathertown compete for camera control, so in order to use the camera in Gathertown you have to close Zoom before you enter Gathertown.



If you want to give or propose a talk, please contact l.dahinden-at-gmail.com, levin.maier-at-gmx.de or siefring-at-mathi.uni-heidelberg.de.



Disclaimer: the following list is not final and will be subject to heavy change!
Especially, some of the talks will not be confined to just one session.
