On November 25th, 2009, Sylvain CROVISIER defended his habilitation à diriger des recherches titled Perturbation de la dynamique de difféomorphismes en petite régularité. He first explained basic perturbation techniques: the Anosov-Katok procedure: you use more and more distorted conjugacies such that the limiting dynamics has new properties; the closing lemma of Pugh and the subsequent [...]

Duncan SANDS gave a talk for the Journée Affine Par Morceaux on the dynamics of Lozi maps. These are the piecewise affine homeomorphisms of the plane of the form where . Lozi introduced them as a toy model for the Hénon map, observing numerically some kind of strange attractor for . SANDS and ISHII have [...]
