Delaware State University
Title: Bifurcations and Chaos in One-Dimensional Discrete Dynamical Systems (BaC)
Director(s): Mazen Shahin and Elena Surovyatkina

Dates of Program: July 3 - August 10, 2006
Summary:
Delaware State University will host a six-week MAA-SUMMA National Research
Experience for Undergraduates Program (NREUP). Prof. Mazen
Shahin and Prof. Elena Surovyatkina have recruited four African
American student researchers from Delaware State University to conduct
research in nonlinear dynamics under their supervision. The project
will focus on the theoretical and numerical investigations of the
general properties of one-dimensional dynamical systems with
bifurcational transitions. This research program is designed to provide
the students with a challenging and exciting research experience that
would encourage them to pursue advanced graduate degrees in mathematics
and to seek academic or industrial careers.
Student Researchers Supported by MAA:
- Monique Felder-Grant
- Jeffrey Thompson
- Alex E. Weal
- Pablo Rodriguez Jr.
