<i>Speaker:</i> Andrey Gogolev (Binghamton University)<br><i>Title:</i> Moduli of smooth conjugacy of Anosov systems<em></em><div>
<i><br>Abstract:</i>
Let M be a smooth compact Riemannian manifold. An Anosov diffeomorphism is
a diffeomorphism from M to itself such that the tangent bundle of M splits
into an invariant sum of the stable subbundle and the unstable subbundle.
The diffeomorphism contracts the stable subbundle and expands the unstable
subbundle exponentially fast. Anosov diffeomorphisms form a C^1 open set
in Diff(M) and structural stability asserts that two Anosov
diffeomorphisms which are C^1 close are conjugate. The conjugacy is a
homeomorphism that typically fails to be C^1. In this talk we will discuss
the structure of smooth conjugacy classes of Anosov diffeomorphisms.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br>
