675. Wilhelm und Else Heraeus Seminar: Delayed Complex Systems 2018

The aim of the 675. WE-Heraeus Seminar: Delayed Complex Systems 2018 is to bring together leading scientists and young researchers working on nonlinear time delay systems, complex networks and spatially extended systems with time delays. The possibility for a fruitful scientific exchange on new fundamental aspects and recent developments in applications of time delay systems is given by the unique format of the Wilhelm and Else Heraeus Seminars in the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef.

Topics include but are not limited to: Laser dynamics with external (delayed) feedback, time delayed feedback control, complex dynamics and synchronization in delay coupled systems, the role of delays in population dynamics and epidemiology, effects of nonlinearities and delays in engineering applications, fundamental aspects of systems with variable or state-dependent delay

Focus Workshop Synergetic Approaches to Complexity SYNCOM13

This focus workshop is devoted to the latest developments in understanding complex systems with the help of tools and concepts from Synergetics. It is still one of the big challenges to understand the macroscopic behavior of complex systems composed of many interacting subsystems driven into nonequilibrium situations.

In this seminar we plan to present and discuss the newest concepts for handling complex systems. In particular, we will focus on stochastic concepts with its applications in time-series analysis and anomalous transport, on spontaneous structure formation and on the problem of turbulence. Insights into these fields, which may appear unconnected to the non-expert, are based on common ideas founded in Synergetics. In particular we will focus on the work of Rudolf Friedrich, who passed away very unexpectedly last year. His work was very interdisciplinary, bridging pure theory with experimental and technical applications.
