Autorentext
Michael Field has held appointments in the UK (Warwick University and Imperial College London), Australia (Sydney University) and the US (the University of Houston and Rice University) and has taught a wide range of courses at undergraduate and graduate level, including real analysis, partial differential equations, dynamical systems, differential manifolds, Lie groups, complex manifolds and sheaf cohomology. His publications in the areas of equivariant dynamical systems and network dynamics include nine books and research monographs as well as many research articles. His computer graphic art work, based on symmetric dynamics, has been widely exhibited and is on display at a number of universities around the world.
