Webmeeting – Women in Mathematics
Due the Covid-19 emergency our Celebrating Women in Math at Rio has been postponed for the moment. While we are waiting for our presential meeting, we have created a virtual one, to occur May 26-27 11:00 am (RJ-BR time), to celebrate this important moment for us, women in math.

26 de Maio – in portuguese
Maria José Pacífico – UFRJ
Título: Avanços e tropeços da mulher nas ciências
Resumo: Nesta mesa redonda, vou relatar alguns avanços e conquistas das mulheres cientistas, contrapondo com os tropeços advindos de sua condição de gênero.
Maité Kulesza – UFRPE
Título: Maternidade e pesquisa combinam?
Resumo: Pesquisas apontam que, ao se tornarem mães, mulheres cientistas baixam consideravelmente a quantidade de suas publicações. Com isso, nos últimos anos, o tema maternidade e produtividade tem sido abordado em vários artigos e mesas nos eventos acadêmicos, buscando ações que possam minimizar esse impacto na carreira das mulheres. Nesta mesa, pretendo apresentar alguns dados coletados pelo Parent in Science, apontar iniciativas já em curso em editais de pesquisa e de agências de fomento, bem como trazer a reflexão do porquê a pandemia acentuou esse impacto sobre a vida das pesquisadoras.

“Slow chaos”: understanding dynamics of parabolic systems
Many deterministic systems, in mathematical models and in nature, exhibit “chaotic behaviour”: a well known feature of chaos is the butterfly effect: a small variation of initial conditions may lead to drastically different future evolutions. This talk will focus on parabolic systems, those for which the “butterfly effect” happens “slowly” (e.g. at polynomial speed). These include many systems coming from physics (such as the Ehrenfest and Novikov models of metals), (smooth) flows on surfaces and billiards in (rational) polygons. We will survey some of the mathematical characterization of chaotic features and some of the mechanisms for “slow” chaos in these systems, including recent work inspired by the ideas of Marina Ratner.

Via professor Carolina Araújo-IMPA:
“This year, due Covid-19 crisis, we are encouraging the celebration at home!
As part of this initiative, ZALA films will be making available, free of charge, through the initiative * May 12 *, the screening of the film – Secrets of the Surface: The Mathematical Vision of Maryam Mirzakhani. Each person will be able to watch the film for free once between April 1 and May 15, 2020.
To access the film, just register on the website
https://may12.womeninmaths.org/screening-secrets
and you will receive the link by email.
We ask that you don’t distribut the link, please.
Anyone who wants to watch the movie for free during this period can register to receive the link. Enjoy the beautiful film and stay at home!

The Project goal is to make happens the event “Celebrating Women in Mathematics at IM-UFRJ”, in celebration of the women in mathematics day, May 12, which also is the birthday of Mariam Mirzakhani, the only Fields Medal woman in the history of this prize. In this Edition, we intend a broad event in the Week of Women in Mathematics, with 3 (three) days duration, covering a larger variety within the areas of research in mathematics (Analysis, Algebra, Geometry, Mathematical Education, Dynamical Systems, Probability and Statiscs, Mathematical Physics, etc.). During 3 (three) days in May 2020, must be occur talks, discussions and/or workshops such that we expect to have the participation of women professors, national and international researchers interacting with a broad audience of researchers and students of undergraduation and graduation of several universities. The event is also open to people interested in female representation in STEM.
