Title: Periodic Solutions in Delay Equations with Monotone Feedback and Even-odd Symmetry


Abstract:

Scalar delay differential equations (DDEs) of the form
‌$\dot{x}(t)=f(x(t),x(t−1))$,‌(1)
are used widely in real-world models that involve discrete-time lags. Such is the case inpopulation dynamics, where delays arise via maturation times, time-delayed feedback loops in laser devices, and heat transfer lags in atmospheric models. Mathematically, DDEs generate initial value problems in (infinite-dimensional) function spaces and often lead to complicated dynamics. However, the situation simplifies vastly under monotone feedback assumptions.
In the talk, I discuss the case when $f :{\mathbb{R}}^{2}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ in (1) is
● monotone in the delayed component, and
● possesses even-odd symmetry $f(\xi,\eta)=f(−\xi,\eta)=−f(\xi,−\eta)$.
The goal will be to show that all the periodic solutions of the DDE (1) arise as solutions to a boundary value problem in two dimensions (rather than infinite).

The Taipei Postdoc Seminar is a weekly seminar that is organized jointly by the Institute of Mathematics of Academia Sinica and the National Center for Theoretical Sciences during the regular academic year. The seminar is held in these two mathematical institutions, with each one of them hosting the event approximately once every two weeks. The National Taiwan University, Academia Sinica, and the NCTS, together employ a significant number of postdoctoral fellows in mathematics from all over the world every year. The diverse scientific and cultural backgrounds of these postdocs create a unique environment of learning, and the goal of the Taipei Postdoc Seminar is to take advantage of this opportunity by bringing together all these postdocs once in a week in an informal-style seminar to enhance discussions and exchange of ideas among the participants. It is our belief that not only will this seminar encourage and eventually lead to more collaboration among mathematicians in Taipei, but it will also give the participants a chance to broaden their own scientific viewpoints. It is our hope that this seminar will greatly enrich the academic experience of the postdoctoral fellows during their stay in Taipei.
