The New Zealand Institute
of Mathematics and its
Applications
( NZIMA) is sponsoring a
thematic
programme on Analysis, Applications, and Inverse Problems in Partial
Differential Equations. The programme will
be based at
The University of Auckland (New Zealand) and will run August 2006 -
January, 2007.
This
programme will focus on analysis, current
applications, and the inverse problem of partial differential
equations. Emphasis will be put on modern formulations using the
Dirichlet to Neumann map, applications of partial differential
equations and inverse problems. The
aim is to foster exchange between
practitioners and theoreticians in each of the three areas.

International participants
The
international participants, listed above, will
each give series
of lectures at one of
the workshops or within the seminar series, and will spend part of the
semester in Auckland; lecture topics are indicated above.
Other international
visitors will also be
participating in the programme by giving seminars, participating in the
workshops, and through research collaboration. A further list of
international visitors participating in the
programme, including seminar titles, is accessible below.
A series of preparatory
lectures for graduate students are being given in the Mathematics
Department at Auckland University. Current lectires are by Boris
Pavlov. Lecture details.
Workshops
- Summer workshop: The
main international
workshop will be held 10 - 14 January 2007 at Waitangi, near the
Northland
beach town of Paihia, about 241
km (150 miles) north of Auckland. Further details about the Waitangi meeting.
- InterCoREs: A joint
workshop will be held in Palmerston North, in the second week of
December 2006.
Further details about the InterCoREs
meeting.
One day meetings
A series of
one day meetings will be held during
2006 and 2007.
Please email Colin Fox
for further information about these meetings.
A series of seminars
on the programme theme will
be
held during
2006 and 2007.
