- Workshop on Symbolic Dynamics
- Mathematical Sciences Research Institute
- Berkeley, California
- (second announcement)
-
-
- As part of the fall, 1992 program on Symbolic Dynamics, MSRI will host a
- five-day workshop from November 2 through 6. The organizing committee
- consists of Mike Boyle (chairman), Jack Wagoner, and Susan Williams.
-
- The workshop is open to the scientific public; there is no registration
- fee. Activities will begin with registration at 9:00 a.m. on Monday,
- November 2, 1992 and the first talk at 9:30 a.m. There will be
- refreshments at 10:30 a.m. and tea at 3:15 p.m. The sessions will be in the
- Institute Lecture Hall.
-
- The workshop will range broadly over aspects of symbolic dynamics and its
- applications. Topics are expected to include shifts of finite type, more
- general subshifts and countable Markov chains, cellular automata, orbit
- equivalence, actions by group automorphisms, codings of flows, zeta
- functions and the trace formula, Markov partitions and tilings, connections
- with language and automata theory, and problems related to efficient data
- storage.

- There is a shuttle bus running at half-hour intervals between MSRI and the
- Mining Circle just to the east of Evans Hall. The first trip uphill is at
- 7:45 a.m. and thereafter on the quarter and three-quarters hours until the
- last trip at 6:15 p.m. Downhill the trips leave on the hour and half-hour
- with the first trip at 8:00 a.m. and the last at 6:30 p.m. Be sure to take
- the bus labelled "Hill Service"; if in doubt, ask the driver. There is a
- charge of 50 cents and exact change is required. There is also a bus from
- downtown Berkeley (Shattuck and Center) to Evans Hall for which the fare is
- 25 cents, with exact change required.
