(Non)genericity of shadowing properties
We will consider the following shadowing properties of discrete dynamical systems: pseudo-orbit tracing property (or standard shadowing property), orbital shadowing property and weak shadowing property. We will discuss the problems of genericity and density of the above-mentioned shadowing properties in different spaces of discrete dynamical systems on closed smooth manifolds. Particularly we will talk about nondensity of orbital shadowing property with respect to C^1-topology.

Irreversibly heading for balance? Some examples of colorful dynamics in simple diffusion processes
Diffusion equations have been thoroughly studied in the past decades, and a large variety of results has given rise to some common belief about effects of diffusion. Typical conclusions of this flavor read as follows.
  • Bounded solutions stabilize towards some equilibrium.
  • Diffusive evolution never returns to a state in which it has already been sometime in the past.
  • Singularities are melted down either instantaneously or never.
The intention of the talk is to present some exemplary results which indicate that such dogma-like statements need not be true in general. To underline this, the main focus will be on cases where the mathematical setting, made up by the PDE ingredients, space dimensions and domains, is as simple as possible.

Homoclinic and Heteroclinic Orbits for a Semilinear Parabolic Equation
We study the existence of connecting orbits for the Fujita equation, ut=Δu+up, with a critical or supercritical exponent p. For certain ranges of the exponent we prove the existence of heteroclinic connections from positive steady states to zero and the existence of a homoclinic orbit with respect to zero. This is a joint work with Eiji Yanagida.
