Asymptotic Patterns in Variational Problems: PDE and Geometric Aspects (16w5065)

The Casa Matemática Oaxaca (CMO) will host the "Asymptotic Patterns in Variational Problems: PDE and Geometric Aspects " workshop from September 25th to September 30th, 2016.

This five-day workshop will provide a forum for the dissemination of current advances in the analysis of pattern formation in various nonlinear problems
sharing a variational structure and its links with the entire and self similar solutions to semilinear elliptic and parabolic systems.
Applications may be found in theoretical physics (Bose-Einstein condensation, superfluids, Quantum electrodynamics), fluid mechanics, population dynamics and material sciences.

The Casa Matemática Oaxaca (CMO) in Mexico, and the Banff International Research Station for Mathematical Innovation and Discovery (BIRS) in Banff, are collaborative Canada-US-Mexico ventures that provide an environment for creative interaction as well as the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and methods within the Mathematical Sciences, with related disciplines and with industry.

The research station in Banff is supported by Canada's Natural Science and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), Alberta's Advanced Education and Technology, and Mexico's Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (CONACYT). The research station in Oaxaca is funded by CONACYT.
