Fur die Analyse des Langzeitverhaltens dynamischer Systeme werden in dieser Dissertation drei neue Ansatze, basierend auf Transferoperator-Methoden, zur Entwicklung effizienter Algorithmen vorgestellt. Zuerst leiten wir eine Diskretisierung auf dunnen Gittern her, um den Fluch der Dimension in den Griff zu bekommen. Die zweite Methode behandelt den infinitesimalen Generator der Transferoperator-Halbgruppe fur zeit-kontinuierliche Systeme. Als Drittes benutzen wir mean-field-Theorie, um die Dynamik von Subsystemen zu beschreiben, wobei besonderes Augenmerk auf die Konformationsanalyse in der Molekuldynamik gerichtet wird. Des Weiteren werden Bedingungen hergeleitet, unter welchen die Galerkin-Projektion des Transferoperators mit einer kleinen zufalligen Storung des zugrunde liegenden Systems in Verbindung gebracht werden kann. In this thesis three new transfer operator based approaches are developed for the analysis of the long-term behavior of dynamical systems. First, a sparse grid discretization is derived in order to deal with the "curse of dimension". The second method considers the infinitesimal generator of the transfer operator semigroup for continuous-time systems. The third method uses mean field theory to describe the dynamics of subsystems; here the main attention is devoted to conformation analysis in molecular dynamics. Further, conditions are derived such that the Galerkin projection of the transfer operator can be related to a small random perturbation of the underlying system.

Mathematical models are used to simulate, and sometimes control, the behavior of physical and artificial processes such as the weather and very large-scale integration (VLSI) circuits. The increasing need for accuracy has led to the development of highly complex models. However, in the presence of limited computational accuracy and storage capabilities model reduction (system approximation) is often necessary. Approximation of Large-Scale Dynamical Systems provides a comprehensive picture of model reduction, combining system theory with numerical linear algebra and computational considerations. It addresses the issue of model reduction and the resulting trade-offs between accuracy and complexity. Special attention is given to numerical aspects, simulation questions, and practical applications.

In response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM), and given the increased activities of the offshore oil industry, an international multidisciplinary consortium - the CIGOM Consortium - was funded by Mexico's Energy Secretariat (SENER) and its National Council for Science and Technology (CONACyT). Spanning 2015-2022, CIGOM's goals were to establish an environmental baseline to characterize the southern GOM’s natural variability and contribute to the understanding of ecosystem function, use cutting-edge technologies to observe the ocean, couple physical circulation and biogeochemical models to gain understating of oceanographic processes, generate oil spill scenarios using model ensembles and statistical techniques and conducting vulnerability assessments. Over 300 researchers participated in the CIGOM consortium's efforts.

This collection of reprinted 'Featured Reviews' published in Mathematical Reviews (MR) in 1995 and 1996 makes widely available informed reviews of some of the best mathematics published recently. 'Featured Reviews' were introduced in MR at the beginning of 1995 in part to provide some guidance to the current research-level literature. With the exponential growth of publications in mathematical research in the first half-century of MR, it had become essentially impossible for users of MR to identify the most important new research-level books and papers, especially in fields outside of the users' own expertise. This work identifies some of the "best" new publications, papers, and books that are expected to have a significant impact on the area of pure or applied mathematics with which researchers are concerned. All of the papers reviewed here contain interesting new ideas or applications, a deep synthesis of existing ideas, or any combination of these. The volume is intended to lead the user to important new research across all fields covered by MR.
