**A Poincare' Section for the Standard Map**
	The Standard Map, a nonlinear iterative mapping which exhibits the phenomenon of deterministic chaos, is closely related to the Frenkel-Kontorova model, a physical model which is associated with my research interests in incommensurate monolayer solids. See Research Interests below for more information. Image thanks to J.C. Sprott (sprott.physics.wisc.edu)
