This is the reason to hold this symposium, named "50 years of Chaos". It is well known that their results were major motivations for new applications of dynamical systems theory, which, at least in US & Europe, had been largely confined to mathematics departments since Poincare's work. The USSR maintained a more vital link between theory and applications. >Since the early 1960s, we have developed the chaos theory for 50 years. Based on the development, new era of applications is in front of us in mechanic, robotics, bioscience, nanotechnology, fluid dynamics and so on. For examples, the material science and nanotechnology are strongly governed by nonlinear dynamics and chaos in molecular and atom size. On the other hand, robotics are controlled by CPG (Central Pattern Generator), including chaotic dynamics. These are recent typical application of nonlinear dynamics and chaos theory. >We can discuss these new applications based on the fundamentals of chaos theory for 50 years and look back to the chaos theory through the development. It is the general direction of the symposium. **Symposium Chairman [#a84ad50d] -Professor [[Takashi Hikihara:http://www-lab23.kuee.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en/index.php?T_Hikihara]] (Kyoto University, JPN) -Professor [[Tsutomu Kambe:http://www.iutam.net/iutam/Addresses/index.php/Kambe]] (Institute of Dynamical System, The University of Tokyo (Professor, Emeritus), JPN) **Scientific Committee [#gd102776] -Professor [[Phillip Holmes:http://www.princeton.edu/mae/people/faculty/holmes/]] (Princeton University, USA) -Professor [[Edwin Kreuzer:http://www.mum.tu-harburg.de/english/mitarbeiter/kreuzer.htm]] (Hamburg University of Technology, Germany) -Professor [[Giuseppe Rega:http://www.disg.uniroma1.it/index0.htm?testata2&PERSONE/pppersone.htm]] (Universita di Roma La Sapienza, Italy) -Professor [[Marian Wiercigroch:http://wwwcad.eng.abdn.ac.uk/~eng373/]] (Aberdeen University, UK) -Professor [[Lai Sang Young:http://as.nyu.edu/object/Lai-SangYoung.html]] (Courant Institute, USA) -Professor [[D.H.
