In the infinite-dimensional context of delay equations\, these issues are further compounded: for instance\, the two-pa rameter dynamical system associated to such a system can be discontinuous everywhere. With applications in engineering\, the life sciences and other areas abound\, there is a clear need to develop theoretical and computati onal techniques that can handle such systems.\n\n\n In this talk we will pr esent some recent advances in invariant manifold theory for impulsive func tional differential equations (FDE) and some applications to bifurcation a nd control. It will be clear from the applications that one of the main bo ttlenecks in the analysis of impulsive FDE is the availability of suitable numerical methods. To this end\, we will present some current work on spe ctral methods for Floquet multipliers and continuation of periodic solutio ns in nonlinear equations.\n DTSTART:20200224T210000Z DTEND:20200224T220000Z LOCATION:Room 1104\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Kevin Church (91ºÚÁÏÍø) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/kevin-church-mcgill-32057 3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
