"Almost automorphic evolution equations"
The aim of this talk is threefold: 1. We will present the method of reduction to prove the existence of almost automorphic solutions to an evolution equation in finite dimensional space. 2. We will introduce the concept of uniform spectrum of bounded functions as a tool to resolve an open problem for the existence of almost automorphic mild solutions to evolution equations of the form x'(t)=Ax(t)+f(t) in an infinite dimensionsional space where A is a (generally unbounded operator) and f an almost automorphic function. 3. We will show, using the sub and super solution method combined with the Bohr compactification of the euclidean space, that a second order elliptic almost periodic equation may not have almost periodic solutions but many almost automorphic solutions in the envelope of the equation. We apply the result to an almost periodically forced pendulum. All results are the speaker's contributions.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
