Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations,
8-18 January 2001.
- Edinburgh, Scotland
.
- Scientific Programme: The aim of this 10-day
course is to instruct young mathematicians on modern methods for
nonlinear PDE theory, where the motivation comes from important new
areas in applied science, including image processing, materials
science, gas and fluid dynamics, and quantum mechanics of atoms
and molecules. Although this set of topics has been selected for
detailed analysis, the methods are universal in their scope.
Talks will be presented at three levels. Around one-third of the
total time will be spent presenting basic methods and applying them
to prototypical examples which illustrate both their power and
their limitations. This material will be suitable for students at
the start of their postgraduate studies.
Talks at the intermediate level will be devoted to refining these
basic methods to cover more subtle and complex situations. The
series of more advanced lectures will review recent developments
and current research.

interactions. Subthemes at the conference will
include: Large-amplitude and breaking waves; Wind-wave
and wave-wave interactions; Hamiltonian and multi-symplectic
formulations; Solitary waves and fronts; Water-wave
turbulence and Euler-turbulence; Linear and
nonlinear asymptotic models; Stability of waves

Analysis and development of model PDEs;
Statistical versus deterministic nonlinear models;
The limiting form of 3D waves; Integrability of
water waves and model PDE. The conference
organisers are S E Belcher (Reading), T J Bridges
