Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications

In the past few decades, there have been remarkable advances in both observational and theoretical aspects of cosmology. However, significant challenges remain in understanding the fully nonlinear features of cosmological dynamics. This conference aims to facilitate interactions between the mathematical and
physical cosmology communities, and to identify important future directions in the field. Some topics that will be discussed include: N-body simulations, structure formation, averaging, post-Newtonian cosmological expansions, quiescent big bang singularities, mixmaster and chaotic dynamics.
