  1. Free surface flows in fluid dynamics (UCB Chancellor Professor Course)

    Location: MSRI: Online/Virtual
    Speakers: Thomas Alazard (Ecole Normale Supérieure Paris-Saclay; Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS))

    To participate in this seminar, please register here: https://www.msri.org/seminars/25657

     

    A classical subject in the mathematical theory of hydrodynamics consists in studying the evolution of the free surface separating the air from a perfect incompressible fluid. We will examine this problem for two important sets of equations: the water wave equations and the Hele-Shaw equations, including the Muskat problem. They are of different nature, dispersive versus parabolic, but we will see that they can be studied by related tools.

    These courses are intended for graduate students with a general interest in analysis and no prerequisites about any advanced theory is required. A large part of the courses will consist of short self-contained introductions to the following topics: Paradifferential calculus, the fractional Laplacian and the multiplier methods of Morawetz and Lions. These lectures also aim to give a self-contained introduction to certain aspects at the cutting edge of research. I will give a detailed analysis of the Cauchy problem for the water wave, Hele-Shaw and Muskat equations.

Upcoming Seminars

  1. Fellowship of the Ring, National Seminar: On the size and shape of Betti numbers

    Location: MSRI: Online/Virtual
    Speakers: Adam Boocher (University of California, San Diego)

    To attend this seminar, you must register in advance, by clicking HERE.

     

    Abstract:

    Given a finitely-generated graded module over a polynomial ring, there are many results and conjectures concerning lower bounds for its betti numbers. Major players in this story include the Syzygy Theorem, the Buchsbaum-Eisenbud-Horrocks Rank Conjecture, and the Total Rank Conjecture.  In this talk I'll survey these results and conjectures including a collection of intricately connected recent results that point to even stronger bounds.

  10. ADJOINT Research Seminar: Validated Computation of Special Mathematical Functions

    Location: MSRI: Online/Virtual
    Speakers: Sean Brooks (Coppin State College), Rachel Vincent-Finley (Southern University and A&M College)

    The advent of reliable computing machines, computer algebra systems, and multiple precision computational packages diminished the need for tables of reference values for computing function values by interpolation, but today's numerical analysts, scientific researchers, and software developers still need a way to confirm the accuracy of numerical algorithms that compute mathematical function values. The field of validated computation of mathematical functions explores the development of multiple precision codes that compute certifiably accurate function values that can be used to test the accuracy of function data from personal, commercial, or publicly available codes. We discuss the analysis used to obtain reliable error bounds for floating point approximations and describe the implementation of the work in a publicly available beta site.

  1. 2021 African Diaspora Joint Mathematics Workshop

    The African Diaspora Joint Mathematics Workshop (ADJOINT) will take place at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley, CA from June 21 to July 2, 2021.

    ADJOINT is a two-week summer activity designed for researchers with a Ph.D. degree in the mathematical sciences who are interested in conducting research in a collegial environment.  

    The main objective of ADJOINT is to provide opportunities for in-person research collaboration to U.S. mathematicians, especially those from the African Diaspora, who will work in small groups with research leaders on various research projects. 

    Through this effort, MSRI aims to establish and promote research communities that will foster and strengthen research productivity and career development among its participants. The ADJOINT workshops are designed to catalyze research collaborations, provide support for conferences to increase the visibility of the researchers, and to develop a sense of community among the mathematicians who attend. 

    The end goal of this program is to enhance the mathematical sciences and its community by positively affecting the research and careers of African-American mathematicians and supporting their efforts to achieve full access and engagement in the broader research community. 

    Each summer, three to five research leaders will each propose a research topic to be studied during a two-week workshop.

    During the workshop, each participant will: 

    • conduct research at MSRI within a group of four to five mathematicians under the direction of one of the research leaders 
    • participate in professional enhancement activities provided by the onsite ADJOINT Director 
    • receive funding for two weeks of lodging, meals and incidentals, and one round-trip travel to Berkeley, CA 

    After the two-week workshop, each participant will:

    • have the opportunity to further their research project with the team members including the research leader 
    • have access to funding to attend conference(s) or to meet with other team members to pursue the research project, or to present results 
    • become part of a network of research and career mentors
