  <h1 id="welcome"><strong>Welcome!</strong></h1>
    <p>   
    The Dynamical Systems Group at the Universidad de la República is very honored to host a workshop 
    on the occasion of Patrice Le Calvez's 60th anniversary. 
  </p>
  <p>
    The aim is to bring together top scientists working on surface topological dynamics to share their
     knowledge and ideas.     
  </p>
  <p>
    The event will take place on december 17th–20th, 2018.

    During the conference we will be holding  a memorial recognition to Ricardo Mañé
    (1948-1995), a top Uruguayan (and Brazilian) mathematician who worked on Dynamical
    Systems, and who in 2018 would have been 70 years old.

        <p>Ricardo Mañé was born in January, 1948, in Montevideo, Uruguay.
              He entered the University of the Republic of Uruguay in 1967.
              In 1969 he became an assistant lecturer in the department of
              mathematics, where, under the guidance of J. Lewowicz he found
              his vocation for mathematics and specially for dynamical systems.
              Through him he got in contact in 1971 with J. Palis, who was then
              starting a lively research group in this field at the Institute
              for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IMPA) in Rio de Janeiro.
              He encouraged Mañé to pursue his studies at IMPA, which he did,
              obtaining his PhD in 1973, having Palis as thesis advisor.

          Since he became an assistant professor at IMPA, in 1973, all the
          academic career of Mañé was developed at this admirable Institute,
          where he has been thesis adviser of eleven doctorate students
          C. Doering, A. Araújo, R. Ruggiero, M. Craizer, G. Contreras,
          M. Paternain, F. Carvalho, A. Rovella, J. Delgado, R. Iturriaga and
          H. Enrich. The topics of their theses included persistently transitive
          flows, Lorenz like attractors, existence of hyperbolic attractors for
          diffeomorphisms of surfaces, the dynamics of the inner functions and
          the variational ergodic theory of Lagrangian flows.

        <p>
          Mañé was invited to speak twice in the section of Ordinary
          Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems of the International
          Congress of Mathematicians, in 1983 at Warsaw and in 1994 at Zürich.
          He was also a speaker at the Colloquium organized by the Société
          Mathématique de France, celebrating R. Thom's 65th anniversary.
          In 1994, he became a member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences
          and was awarded the Third World Academy of Sciences Prize for Mathematics.

          A bold contribution and a masterpiece of Mañés work is the solution of the stability conjecture.

          Mañé passed away in Montevideo, 1995.
