Instructional Conference on Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations

January 8-18, 2001

Edinburgh, Scotland

Mathematics

Host: Heriot-Watt University
Homepage: http://www.ma.hw.ac.uk/icms/current/npde/index.html

Organizers: J M Ball (Oxford), M J Esteban (Paris), J Toland (Bath)

Description:
The aim of this 10-day course is to instruct young mathematicians on modern methods for nonlinear PDE theory, where the motivation comes from important new areas in applied science, including image processing, materials science, gas and fluid dynamics, and quantum mechanics of atoms and molecules. Although this set of topics has been selected for detailed analysis, the methods are universal in their scope.
