Analysis of Partial Differential Equations

Describing efficiently real life phenomena using PDE models.

Objective:

We explore and exploit the deep connections between Partial Differential Equations, Harmonic Analysis, and Applied Mathematics so as to describe the most diverse phenomena.

Description:

The attempt to efficiently describe real-life phenomena leads to mathematical models, often expressed in terms of PDEs, capturing the essential features of the phenomena. Solving these equations implies the use and development of sophisticated techniques of analysis together with the realisation of numerical simulations to eventually determine the validity of the models.

Applications:

The understanding of the fundamental principles that control relevant phenomena in physics and biology could eventually become of use for scientists working on those fields. We also expect to apply the efficient algorithms developed by our numerical simulations in real life problems.
