Plan for the talk
•Explain the title !Personal perspective on the rise of applied dynamical systems theory (and what happened to the theory of ordinary differential equations in the process?) !•What is taught in a first course on applied dynamical systems theory (example topics)—and what of this is valid for aperiodic and finite time dynamics? !
•The “Hyperbolic-Elliptic Dichotomy”—The KAM and Nekhoroshev Theorems !
•Finally, are there any lessons related to “how you choose research problems”?

The Rise of Applied Dynamical Systems Theory•When—Late 70s early 80s !•Why—applications (and two influential books) Guckenheimer and Holmes [1983] Nonlinear Oscillations, Dynamical Systems and Bifurcations of Vector Fields, Springer. Lichtenberg and Lieberman [1982] Regular and Stochastic Motion, Springer.
!• What role did the well-developed Theory of Ordinary Differential Equations play? Essentially none—and 3 great books were mostly overlooked !E. A. Coddington and N. Levinson {1984] Theory of Ordinary Differential Equations, Krieger !J. K Hale [2009] Ordinary Differential Equations, Dover. !P. Hartman [2002] Ordinary Differential Equations, SIAM.

Typical Topics in a First Course on Dynamical Systems (with a “geometrical flavor")
!•Some general remarks on “nonlinearity” (and some “captivating” examples” •Generating the dynamics—maps and flows
•Linearization about fixed points
•Stable, unstable, and center manifolds of fixed points
•Invariance, stability, and attraction
•Bifurcation theory (mostly local)
•Chaos !
How much of this goes over for nonautonmous systems? Or time-dependent systems that are defined only for a finite time? !!

21 “The Hyperbolic-Elliptic Dichotomy”
All of the results above are concerned with hyperbolic phenomena
In general, “hyperbolicity results” do not depend on the nature of the time dependence or whether or not the system is Hamiltonian
Two fundamental perturbation theorems of Hamiltonian dynamics: the KAM theorem and the Nekhoroshev theorem--are there versions for aperiodic time dependence and finite time dependence (and can they really be applied to the study of transport in fluids?).

32Summary and Conclusions
•Reviewed a number of mathematical results related to non autonomous and “finite time” systems (all deterministic), with many being “forgotten” or not well-known.
•Highlighted the “hyperbolic-elliptic dichotomy”
•KAM theorems and Nekhoroshev Theorems--The latter may be more relevant for studies of Lagrangian transport (noted recent aperiodic versions of these theorems)
•Presented an example (“reverse-engineered” from Kolmogorov’s proof of KAM) which is an ideal “laboratory” for a variety of the issues raised.
•Highlighted a wealth of “important and undeveloped research directions”
•EXAMPLES ARE IMPORTANT (and show “the way”)
