This volume contains the proceedings from
three conferences: the PISRS 2011 International Conference on
Analysis, Fractal Geometry, Dynamical Systems and Economics, held
November 8–12, 2011 in Messina, Italy; the AMS Special Session on
Fractal Geometry in Pure and Applied Mathematics, in memory of Benoît
Mandelbrot, held January 4–7, 2012, in Boston, MA; and the AMS
Special Session on Geometry and Analysis on Fractal Spaces, held March
3–4, 2012, in Honolulu, HI.
Articles in this volume cover fractal geometry and various aspects
of dynamical systems in applied mathematics and the applications to
other sciences. Also included are articles discussing a variety of
connections between these subjects and various areas of physics,
engineering, computer science, technology, economics and finance, as
well as of mathematics (including probability theory in relation with
statistical physics and heat kernel estimates, geometric measure
theory, partial differential equations in relation with condensed
matter physics, global analysis on non-smooth spaces, the theory of
billiards, harmonic analysis and spectral geometry).
The companion volume (Contemporary Mathematics, Volume 600) focuses
on the more mathematical aspects of fractal geometry and dynamical
systems.
