Usual update while ECAL is still fresh in my body

Before I move on to my daily research routine I will first attempt to reflect on the conference. Hopefully this way I can reduce the chances of forgetting it ever happened. I won’t go into much depth but only some of the things I remember most clearly.

A second level of ‘interestingness’ and a more minimal non-monotonic transfer function

The following is a follow-up to my transfer function post a couple of days ago. Two persons have suggested using a simpler non-monotonic function such as the Gaussian. I will incorporate results with that transfer function. Also, I will add one more category to my previous minimalistic categorizationof asymptotic dynamics: point attractors versus other dynamics. I am now including periodic orbits. Still very minimalistic.
