$ u_t = \Delta u + f(x,u,\nabla u) $
on a bounded domain in $R^N$, $N>1$ under Dirichlet boundary
condition. We say that a given ODE is realizable in this class
of
PDEs if for some $f$ the corresponding PDE has an invariant manifold,
the flow on which is equivalent to the flow of the given ODE.
We prove that any ODE has an arbitrarily small perturbation that
is realizable. Also, any linear ODE is realizable (this is in fact
an inverse eigenvalue result for an elliptic operator).
These theorems guarantee that chaotic dynamics can be found in
such PDEs. Also, solutions of such equations have their
$\omega$-limit sets of arbitrarily high dimensions (even
when $\Omega$ has dimension 2).
