Beyond Hamilton-Jacobi in Avignon

该奖项提供资金，以帮助支付18名美国参与者，特别是年轻的研究人员和研究生，参加会议的旅费“超越汉密尔顿-雅可比在阿维尼翁”，这将发生在阿维尼翁大学，从星期三2014年4月23日至30日。 PI预计，约2/3的预算将用于研究生和博士后的支持，招募尽可能多的代表性不足的群体作为优先事项。阿维尼翁会议将涵盖弱KAM理论和奥布里-马瑟理论领域的最新发展。这是一个非常活跃的领域，起源于固态物理和动力学的实际应用。阿维尼翁会议将汇集来自世界各地的参与者，以丰富和连接弱KAM理论的许多不同方面。来自美国的初级研究人员将接触到一个高水平的计划，并将熟悉最有前途和最有活力的研究领域连接偏微分方程的动态。届时将有6位资深讲师，包括两位同时也是活动协办方的PI。

This award provides funding to help defray the travel expenses of 18 US participants, especially young researchers and graduate students, to participate in the conference "Beyond Hamilton-Jacobi in Avignon", which will take place in Avignon University, from Wednesday April 23 - 30, 2014. The PIs expect that about 2/3 of the budget will go towards the support of graduate students and postdocs, with recruiting as many underrepresented groups as possible a priority.The Avignon conference will cover recent developments in the areas of Weak KAM theory and Aubry-Mather theory. This is a very active area, with origins in practical applications to solid state physics and dynamics. The Avignon conference will bring together participants from many parts of the world to enrich and connect the many different aspects of Weak KAM theory. The junior researchers from the US will be exposed to a high level program and will become acquainted with the most promising and vibrant areas of research connecting PDEs to dynamics. There will be 6 senior lecturers, including the two PIs who are also co-organizers of the event.
