Fourth International Conference on Dynamical Systems and Differential Equations

The Fourth International Conference on "Dynamical Systems and Differential Equations", part of the conference series organised by America Institute of Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), was held on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, Wilmington, NC, USA, May 24--27, 2002. .The conference attracted over 430, a record number, distinguished mathematicians and scientists working in the specialised fields of differential equations, dynamical systems and real-world applications. The participants came to Wilmington to report recent research developments, exchange ideas and information, and discuss the prospects and trends of future research. More than forty countries/regions were represented at the conference.

The conference proceedings will be published in early 2003 as an expanded edition of DCDS.
