On Translated Points of Contactomorphisms
Sheila Margherita Sandon
4:00pm|S-101

The Arnold conjecture in Symplectic Topology states existence of many fixed points for Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of a compact symplectic manifold. In my talk I will discuss an analogue of this conjecture in Contact Topology, based on the notion...

A Simple Proof of the Conley Conjecture for Hamiltonian Diffeomorphisms C^1-Close to the Identity
Marco Mazzucchelli
4:00pm|S-101

The Conley conjecture, recently established by Nancy Hingston, asserts that every Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a standard symplectic 2n-torus admits infinitely many periodic points. While this conjecture has been extended to more general closed...

An Instability Mechanism Along the Mean Motion Resonances in the Restricted Three Body Problem
Marcel Guardia
4:00pm|S-101

We consider the Restricted Planar Elliptic 3 Body Problem, which models the Sun, Jupiter and an Asteroid (which we assume that has negligible mass). We take a realistic value of the mass ratio between Jupiter and the Sun and their eccentricity...
