Dynamische Netzwerke (Dynamical Networks)

Do. 08:15 - 09:45 Uhr, Hörsaal 4 der Uni

erster Termin: 06.11.2003

We study coupled dynamical systems, like oscillator networks or coupled map lattices, and investigate the interplay between the dynamics and the topology of the underlying network. We describe the relevant network parameters and the structural types of networks, like regular, random, small-world, or scale-free, and how they influence various dynamical phenomena such as synchronization. Depending on the interests of the audience, we shall describe applications to networks of interest in biology or neurobiology, like gene regulatory, signal transduction, or neural networks.

Upon demand, the course will be given in English.
