The mathematical modelling of physiological problems leads to complex systems of PDEs and to computational challenges related to their heterogeneous and multiscale nature. This requires highly integrated and efficient numerical algorithms and high performance computing techniques for their simulation.
This workshop brings together leading experts and young researchers and its main goal is to promote national and international exchange of recent developments in the analysis and numerical simulation of PDEs, and its applications with particular emphasis to biomedical problems.
The IST-IME meetings are organized biennially by the Instituto Superior Técnico (IST-Lisbon) and the Instituto de Matemática e Estatística (IME) of the Universidade de São Paulo (USP). The broad purpose of the meetings is to promote the interaction of researchers from both institutes among themselves and with researchers from other institutions. The main topics of the event will be ordinary and partial differential equations. For this edition we are also organizing a workshop on sympletic geometry.
The Summer School on String Theory and Holography is a 2-week event jointly organized by three European networks. The first week of the school will take place at IST, Lisbon, and consists of 5 lecture series on topics in gauge/gravity duality. The second week of the school will take place at FCUP, Porto, and focus on applications of Mathematica to selected topics in gauge/gravity duality.
The Summer Lectures in Geometry are a tradition at CAMGSD that attains in 2014 its 15th edition. Renowned mathematicians working in Geometry and related areas have lectured thematic courses in two or three sessions during a concentration week in the Summer period.
This series includes courses by Bertrand Toën, Université de Montpellier 2, and Siye Wu, University of Hong Kong.
The meeting will be hosted by the Center for Mathematical Analysis, Geometry and Dynamical Systems of Instituto Superior Técnico, University of Lisbon, in the context of the FCT project Toeplitz operators and Riemann-Hilbert problems: at the crossroad of Operator Theory and Complex Analysis.
This is a workshop focused on recent developments in symplectic and contact geometry and topology.
This meeting at Técnico, Lisbon, is part of a series of Workshops on Symplectic Geometry, Contact Geometry and Interactions which started in Lille in 2007, followed by Brussels, Strasbourg, Paris, Uppsala, Madrid and Les Diablerets, Switzerland. This series has been highly successful in bringing together researchers and the emerging community of young mathematicians working in these fields and their interactions.
The mini-workshop will consist of a mini-course by M. H. Sengun (Warwick), supplemented by seminars.
We will focus on the connections between the \(A\)-polynomials and number theory (such as Mahler measures of \(A\)-polynomials, algebraic K-theory and dilogarithm) and the non-commutative or quantized generalization of the \(A\)-polynomial due to Garoufalidis (based on character varieties) and Gukov (based on quantum field theory), with its conjectured relation with the coloured Jones polynomials (AJ conjecture or quantum volume conjecture).
Variational Methods have proven to be a powerful tool way to solve many problems in the field of differential equations. This scientific meeting will focus mainly on their use in the study of elliptic equations and systems, and will bring together several experts on the field. Participants are encouraged to submit an abstract. The event, which is dedicated to the memory of Miguel Ramos, will take place at the Faculty of Sciences, Universidade de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal.
