Abstract

In this talk I shall discuss some recent results about the interaction of topology and dynamics. In particular I will describe a new example joint with A. Gogolev of a simply connected 6 dimensional manifold with a partially hyperbolic system. If time permits I will also survey partially hyperbolic systems in low dimensions and some open problems.
