Title: On Geometrical Structures and Properties of Solutions
to Hamiltonian Partial Differential Equations

Abstract: in the talk we will study Hamiltonian perturbations
of hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations (PDEs)
with one spatial variable. The deformation theory of integrable
PDEs will be discussed. We also consider the behaviour of
solutions to such systems at the point of "phase transition"
from regular to oscillatory regime.

Lunch with speaker: we meet around 1PM at the Level 2
entry to Carslaw Building.
