NOTE: Discussions start not on the hour, to match the schedule of classes at GT. The workshop is just informal discussions among people. We have designed a leader of discussions, who can set up the topic, but we hope that there are lively discussions. All the discussions are in Skiles 005 Friday Jan 12 Skiles 005 ========================= 10:10 - 12: Rafael de la Llave What is Hamiltonian Mechanics? Why we use it? How we use it? (Background for graduate and undergraduate students at GT) Tuesday Jan 16 Skiles 005 ========================= 9:00-9:30 Coffe and refreshments. 9:30 -- 11:00 Marian Gidea Overview of celestial mechanics models. 11:00 -- 12:30 Molei Tao Symplectic integrators 2:00-3:30 Angel Jorba Normal forms and their numerical calculation. Applications Coffee 3:00-4:15 Glen Lightsey Small Satellite Interplanetary Missions-Environmental Considerations Dinner: Wednesday Jan 17 Skiles 005 =========================== 9:05-11:00 Rodney Anderson Introduction to low energy orbits and mission design problems. 11:15-12:05 Rafael de la Llave Averaging method and resonances 1:55-12:45 Gongjie Li Resonances in the N-Body problem 3:05-4:1545 Livia Corsi Lindstedt series Thursday Jan 18 Skiles 005 =========================== 9:30-11:00 Alex Haro Normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds 11:00-12:30 Josep Maria Mondelo Computation of quasi-periodic orbits 3:00-4:30 Renato Calleja Computation of quasi-periodic solutions in a Celestial Mechanics model Friday Jan 19 Skiles 005 ========================= 9:05 Maxime Murray Computation of stable manifolds of periodic orbits. 10:10 Pablo Roldan Computation of homoclinic intersections 11:15 Marian Gidea Topological methods and shadowing theorems.
