主讲人简介：
Alex Grigo received his bachelor degree from the University of Rostock in 2004, and his Ph.D. from Georgia Tech in 2009, and was a Marsden fellow at University of Toronto during 2009-2012. He is now a tenure-track assistant professor at University of Oklahoma.
内容简介：
The study of mechanical systems has a several centuries long history of major scientific advances and discoveries. In particular, within the last 100 years two qualitatively distinct features, namely stability and stochastic-like behavior, have been studied in various success in a variety contexts (e.g the solar system and Brownianmotion). In this talk I will describe a few examples, which are addressing the question of (1) how it is possible that even simple mechanical systems can behave like a random system, and (2) how it is possible to predict the evolution of mechanical systems with very many constituents. The presentation is intended to be self-contained and accessible to non-experts.
