DESCRIPTION:This lecture introduces novel concepts in asymptotic of second
  order PDE. It is a continuation of lecture 7. The motivation is coming fr
 om noisy dynamical systems\, modelling neuronal networks with synaptic pro
 perties. The lecture presents a novel matched asymptotic\, based on Mobius
  conformal mapping\, Hopf normal form\, to estimate the distribution of ex
 it times and exit points (concentrated at one boundary point). The spectru
 m of the Fokker-Planck non-selfadjoint operator is computed. The role of t
 he second eigenvalue is explained and generated the oscillation escape.  <
