Global dynamics of delay equations with monotone feedback
|
| Even the simplest of delay differential equations yield extremely intricate, infinite dimensional dynamical systems. In the talk I will present a constructive method for classifying the global dynamics of a scalar delay equation under symmetry and monotone feedback assumptions.
If time allows, after the first part of the talk, I will discuss the question of global continuation of periodic solutions in general delay equations with monotone feedback.
Any questions and feedback from the audience are extremely welcome and encouraged!

The analytical basis for non-local Floer homology
|
| Recently, the relation between symplectic geometry and delay differential equations has been drawing attention. There is one approach, so-called non-local Floer homology, which would estimate the number of (some) periodic orbits of delay differential equations with constant delays.
The construction of Floer homology consists of three parts: Transversality, Compactness, and Gluing. In this talk, we focus on Compactness in the setting of non-local Floer homology and discuss asymptotic convergence of non-local unregularized gradient flow lines.

Introducing delay increases the frequency of non-homogeneous oscillators
|
| In this talk, I will describe how the introduction of delay increases the frequency of non-homogeneous oscillators. Furthermore, connections of this problem to optimization problems on spaces of measures and linear programming will be explored. This new viewpoint allows both for a simplification of the proof and for generalization to non-periodic orbits, compared to the work from my master thesis.

The non-wandering set in delay equations with monotone feedback
|
| The role of the non-wandering set in the description of the global dynamics of a dynamical system is fundamental.
Particular applications include finding invariant sets, structural stability properties, and the description of bifurcations of global nature.
In the talk, I will address the description of the non-wandering set of a delay equation with monotone feedback. The results presented guarantee the structural stability of the global attractor based purely on local analysis of the periodic solutions and equilibria of the system.

Signed sensitivity of Markov chains with application to chemical reaction networks
|
|
The most generic dynamic on a network could easily be the probability distribution of a Markov chain. It can be described as a linear ODE without any stochastic framework. In my Master's thesis, I studied the sensitivity of the unique equilibrium of such systems. The results can be used to analyse the sensitivity of equilibria in more complex dynamics on networks.

Introducing delay increases the frequency of non-homogeneous oscillators
|
| I will continue my previous talk on the influence of delay on the frequency of a specific type of non-homogeneous oscillator. Specifically, I will show how one can reformulate the lemma as an optimal transport problem, based on an idea by Alejandro Kocsard. It turns out that this reformulation simplifies the proof significantly.

Rotation theory: from the circle to higher dimensions
|
| Rotation theory has its origins in celebrated works of Henri Poincaré on the dynamics of circle homeormorphisms.
Invoking ergodic theory techniques, this theory has been considerably extended to non-invertible maps and to homemorphisms in higher dimensional spaces.
In this talk we shall start surveying some classical facts about Poincaré theory on the circle and then discuss some more recent results about rotation theory on the 2-dimensional torus.

Properties of an epidemic model with control interventions
|
| This time I will tell a story of one type of epidemic model, which is rarely mentioned in previous studies. Then I will give some properties that have been proven and properties that may be proven in the following studies.

Period Mismatch in a Pyragas Controlled System
|
|
We attempt an initial investigation into a Pyragas controlled system with an incorrect delay, i.e. the delay chosen in the control scheme does not match the period of the target orbit.

Stable manifolds for heteroclinic chains in Horava cosmologies
|
| In this talk we give a perspective on results by Liebscher et al who construct stable manifolds for a certain class of heteroclinic chains in the well-known Bianchi model in general relativity. The aim of our work is to obtain similar results in the parameter dependent Bianchi models within HL cosmology.

|
| We explicitly construct global attractors of fully nonlinear parabolic equations. The attractors are decomposed as equilibria (time-independent solutions) and heteroclinic orbits (solutions that converge to distinct equilibria backward and forward in time). In particular, we state necessary and sufficient conditions for the occurrence of heteroclinics between hyperbolic equilibria.s

Selective feedback stabilization of Ginzburg-Landau spiral waves in circular and spherical geometries
|
| The complex Ginzburg-Landau equation serves as a paradigm of pattern formation. Within circular and spherical geometries, the existence and stability property of Ginzburg-Landau spiral waves have already been proved. Since many spiral waves are unstable and thereby rarely visible in experiments and numerical simulation, we aim to selectively stabilize certain significant classes of unstable spiral waves. Our tool for stabilization is the control triple method, which generalizes the celebrated Pyragas control to the setting of PDEs. This is joint work with I. Schneider and B. de Wolff.

Is genericity always generic?
|
| In the applied sciences, a saddle-node bifurcation is often identified with the Jacobian matrix having a zero eigenvalue. The mathematical argument - rarely mentioned - relies on genericity and details or rigorous proofs are even less often presented.
For vector fields with a network structure, I want to clarify why a genericity argument is not always reliable. To this purpose, I will present two (counter)examples of equilibria with a singular Jacobian that fail to satisfy the other saddle-node conditions, for any parameters choice.
