This volume presents the proceedings of the meeting New Trends in One-Dimensional Dynamics, which celebrated the 70th birthday of Welington de Melo and was held at the IMPA, Rio de Janeiro, in November 2016. Highlighting the latest results in one-dimensional dynamics and its applications, the contributions gathered here also celebrate the highly successful meeting, which brought together experts in the field, including many of Welington de Melo’s co-authors and former doctoral students. Sadly, Welington de Melo passed away shortly after the conference, so that the present volume became more a tribute to him. His role in the development of mathematics was undoubtedly an important one, especially in the area of low-level dynamics, and his legacy includes, in addition to many articles with fundamental contributions, books that are required reading for all newcomers to the field.
This book explores recent developments in the dynamics of invertible circle maps, a rich and captivating topic in one-dimensional dynamics. It focuses on two main classes of invertible dynamical systems on the circle: global diffeomorphisms and smooth homeomorphisms with critical points. The latter is the book's core, reflecting the authors' recent research interests. Organized into four parts and 14 chapters, the content covers rigid rotations, circle homeomorphisms, and the concept of rotation number in the first part. The second part delves into circle diffeomorphisms, presenting classical results. The third part introduces multicritical circle maps—smooth homeomorphisms of the circle w...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 32nd International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, ER 2014, held in Atlanta, GA, USA. The 23 full and 15 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 80 submissions. Topics of interest presented and discussed in the conference span the entire spectrum of conceptual modeling including research and practice in areas such as: data on the web, unstructured data, uncertain and incomplete data, big data, graphs and networks, privacy and safety, database design, new modeling languages and applications, software concepts and strategies, patterns and narratives, data management for enterprise architecture, city and urban applications.
Comprises a collection of papers which examine the role of civil society organizations and the UN systen in the global debates and struggles over equity, sustainability and justice.
