'Highly oscillatory problems: from theory to applications', Cambridge, UK
Highly oscillatory phenomena occur in a wide range of mathematical applications: from fluid to solid mechanics, electro-magnetics, acoustics, combustion, computerized tomography and imaging, molecular dynamics, quantum chemistry, plasma transport and electrical engineering. Such phenomena have attracted a great deal of mathematical attention, mainly in harmonic analysis, asymptotic analysis, homogenization, differential geometry, theory of Hamiltonian systems and theory of integrable systems.
Even with significant interest, they have a reputation of being difficult to analyze. However, once the phenomena have been understood from the mathematical standpoint, effective computational algorithms often follow.
The conference will bring together scientists and researchers who specialise in this particular field of mathematical phenomena.For more information please visit: http://www.esf.org/index.php?id=6532(opens in new window)
