Participating groups on the Network: Nonlinear Dynamics of Spatio-temporal Selforganization

The different participating groups share a common language, that of the Nonlinear and Statistical Physics, but have their own and complementary expertises. We have linked analytically oriented research groups with others more familiar with computational research as well as with experimental techniques. The different perspectives range from those physico-mathematically rooted to more phenomenological approaches associated to particular scenarios such as fluids, lasers, chemical and electrochemical systems or interfacial dynamics, etc.

Besides, the different groups cover a wide spectrum of methodologies ranging from those more deeply stablished in the field of Statistical Mechanics to the most recent developments in the theory of nonlinear systems and the formation of selforganized patterns (bifurcation theory, amplitude equations, spatio-temporal chaos, etc). Particular emphasis is devoted to the role played by spatio-temporal fluctuations in relation with a great variety of complex dynamics such as : interface propagation and disorder, phase transitions, coupling of oscillating and chaotic dynamics, etc.

You will find more precise information by consulting the pages prepared by each group.
