Meetings Edit

This meeting celebrates Rui Loja Fernandes’ 60th birthday and his important contributions to these areas. The conference will feature both distinguished speakers and promising young researchers.

This conference aims to be a forum for sharing ideas and recent results in this area of mathematics. Previous editions of this conference series have taken place in Brazil, Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Sweden.

Organizers: Ivan Kaygorodov (University of Beira Interior), Lina Oliveira (CAMGSD, IST, University of Lisbon), Pedro Lopes (CAMGSD, IST, University of Lisbon)

A new seminar series starts with three introductory short courses: Introduction to Machine Learning for mathematicians (João Costa, CAMGSD), Universal approximation theorems and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (Luís Carvalho, CAMGSD) and Infinitely wide Neural Networks (Gonçalo Oliveira, CAMGSD).

Duality and symmetry in interacting particle systems

Duality is an important concept in the study of stochastic interacting particle systems. For arbitrary initial measures duality expresses expectations of a family of functions at time $t$ in terms of the transition probability of a dual process which may be simpler to analyse. Focussing on countable state space we discuss duality from the perspective of the generator. Unlike the more traditional approach of looking at duality in a pathwise manner this allows us to understand straightforwardly how dualities arise from symmetries, or more generally, from invariant subspaces of the generator and leads to constructive methods for finding useful dualities. Also the new concept of reverse duality comes out naturally. It yields the full probability measure of the process at time t for a family of initial measures in terms of transition probabilities of the dual process and thus allows for the computation of arbitrary expectation values.

Sessions on March 19 and 20, 1:00PM to 2:30PM.

This online international workshop brings together experts in quantum gravity, string theory and machine learning to stimulate collaborative discussions and exchange of ideas on the latest developments and results in the field.

Organizers: Gabriel Lopes Cardoso (IST, Lisbon), Yang-Hui He (LIMS & Merton College, Oxford), Suresh Nampuri (IST, Lisbon)

The 4th Young Researchers in Functional Analysis and Mathematical Physics meeting, YRFAMP'24, will be held alongside and in coordination with WOTCA 2024 - Workshop on Operator Theory, Complex Analysis and Applications 2024 (July 22-26, 2024), aiming to foster contact between leading mathematicians and younger ones.

YRFAMP'24 welcomes students and young researchers in Functional Analysis, Mathematical Physics and related topics. However the number of talks will be limited.Those interested in participating should send an email to one of the organisers.

The program of YRFAMP'24 will consist of a series of invited 15+5 minute talks and a very small number of contributed talks.

The previous YRFAMP meetings were held in Guimarães, YRFAMP'18, in Faro, YRFAMP'22 and in Évora, YRFAMP'23.

This meeting is funded by national funds through the FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, I.P., under the scope of the projects:UIDB/04459/2020 and UIDP/04459/2020 (CAMGSD, IST-ID); UIDB/04674/2020 (CIMA); UIDB/04106/2020 and UIDP/04106/2020 (CIDMA), UIDB/00013/2020 and UIDP/00013/2020 (CMAT-UM).

The Workshop on Operator Theory, Complex Analysis, and Applications 2024 - WOTCA 2024 aims to bring together researchers working in Operator Theory, Complex Analysis, and their applications, in particular Mathematical Physics, and to create an opportunity to highlight the current state of the art in these fields, to present open problems, and to promote collaborative discussions.

This workshop follows the line of several previous WOTCA meetings. The programme will consist of several invited 25+5 minute talks and a very small number of contributed talks.

WOTCA 2024 has no registration fee and is open to everybody interested, but the number of participants will be limited, in order to foster dialogue in a friendly atmosphere.

A parallel workshop for young researchers, YRFAMP’24, will be held July 23-25, in Funchal.

This workshop is funded by national funds through FCT under the scope of projects UIDB/04459/2020 and UIDP/04459/2020 (CAMGSD, IST-ID), UIDB/04674/2020 (CIMA), UIDB/04106/2020 and UIDP/04106/2020 (CIDMA), UIDB/00013/2020 and UIDP/00013/2020 (CMAT-UM).

The meeting brings together active researchers working in the fields of Particle Systems and Partial Differential Equations that present their latest scientific results.

We expect the participation of a vast audience, including young researchers and PhD students, and we intend to present and exploit the interdisciplinary nature of mathematics as well as its applications in various areas. The meeting includes 2 mini-courses and several invited talks.

Organizing Committee

• Cédric Bernardin (Université Côte d’Azur)
• Patrícia Gonçalves (CAMGSD, University of Lisbon)
• Maria João Oliveira (CMAFcIO, University of Lisbon)
• Gunter Schütz (CAMGSD, University of Lisbon)
• Ana Jacinta Soares (CMAT, University of Minho)

The main goal of this conference is to bring together the distinct but parallel communities working and/or interested in Elliptic and Dispersive Partial Differential Equations. Many problems in these fields require a multidisciplinary approach, and we aim to join experts and early career mathematicians from both sides to foster an exchange of ideas and forge new collaborations and perspectives which might benefit the whole field of nonlinear PDES.

The program will consist of plenary talks delivered by invited speakers, as well as two parallel sessions of contributed talks and poster sessions.

Organizing Committee:
Hugo Tavares (CAMGSD, ULisboa)
Simão Correia (CAMGSD, ULisboa)
James Kennedy (GFM, ULisboa)
