Anne Skeldon is visiting the Department of Mathematics at the University of Manchester this week (15-16 April) for a Workshop on “Dynamics and Piecewise Smooth Systems: what’s new?” Anne is giving the closing lecture, which is also the Departmental Heilbronn-sponsored Seminar, on the topic of “The slow-fast dynamics of sleep regulation“. Her talk is based on the paper “Creation of discontinuities in circle maps” (link here) co-authored with Gianne Derks (Leiden) and Paul Glendinning (Manchester). The screenshot below is from Figure 1 in the paper.
