The Kansas-Missouri-Nebraska (KUMUNU) Conference in PDE, Dynamical Systems and Applications

该奖项将为参与者提供支持，特别是研究生，初级研究人员，妇女和科学代表性不足的群体的数学家，参加第三次区域会议“偏微分方程，动力系统和应用的KUMUU会议”（KUMUU林肯2017）将于2017年4月22日至23日在内布拉斯加大学林肯举行。缩写KUMUN表示来自堪萨斯、密苏里州和内布拉斯加大学的教师的合作。会议的网页是http://www.math.unl.edu/events/special/kumunu2017。与前两届KUMUU会议类似，KUMUU林肯2017会议正在组织中，旨在邀请杰出的数学家，他们将向不同的数学家观众提供各自研究项目的讲座。KUMUU林肯2017年将作为一个论坛，建立科学家与研究生和早期职业教师的互动，以及与较小的区域学术机构的成员。会议的目标之一是发起偏微分方程（PDE）专家之间的合作，但他们各自参加了KUMUU林肯2017，否则可能没有机会在科学环境中集体会面。预计这些新生的合作将涉及最近的博士，并促进他们的学术生涯的发展。邀请的演讲将致力于以下研究领域：（i）非线性PDE解决方案的长期行为;以及（ii）描述某些流体-结构相互作用的PDE系统的分析。特别是，会议的发言者将解决定性问题，有关存在的全球吸引集相应的“轨迹”（解决方案）给定的非线性演化偏微分方程。一些演讲者将讨论某些流体结构PDE动力学的严格和数值分析，并介绍他们在这些研究方向的最新发现。此外，预计研究人员之间的合作，在长期的非线性演化PDE和流体结构PDE专家的行为将作为一个出发点，从新的进展将朝着了解非线性流体结构PDE动力学的解决方案的渐近行为。从KUMUU林肯2017产生的预计合作可以提供新的数学见解实验和数值观察到的流体结构现象。

This award will provide support for participants, especially graduate students, junior researchers, women and mathematicians from under-represented groups in the sciences, to attend the third regional conference "KUMUNU Conference in Partial Differential Equations, Dynamical Systems and Applications" (KUMUNU Lincoln 2017) to be held from April 22-23, 2017, at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The abbreviation KUMUNU signifies the collaboration of faculty from the Universities of Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska. The Conference webpage is http://www.math.unl.edu/events/special/kumunu2017. Similarly to the two previous KUMUNU Conferences, the KUMUNU Lincoln 2017 Meeting is being organized with a view toward featuring eminent mathematicians who will deliver lectures on their respective research programs to a diverse audience of mathematicians. KUMUNU Lincoln 2017 will serve as a forum for interaction of established scientist with graduate students and early career faculty, as well as with members of smaller regional academic institutions. One of the objectives of the conference is the initiation of collaborations among Partial Differential Equations (PDE) specialists who, but for their respective participation in KUMUNU Lincoln 2017, might not otherwise have occasion to collectively meet in a scientific setting. It is anticipated that these nascent collaborations will involve recent PhDs and facilitate development of their academic careers. The invited talks will be devoted to the following areas of research: (i) long time behavior of solutions to nonlinear PDE; and (ii) analysis of those PDE systems that describe certain fluid-structure interactions. In particular, the Conference Speakers will address qualitative issues concerning the existence of global attracting sets for corresponding "trajectories" (solutions) of given nonlinear evolutionary PDE. Some speakers will address the rigorous and numerical analysis of certain fluid-structure PDE dynamics, and present their latest findings in these research directions. In addition, it is expected that the collaboration between researchers in long time behavior of nonlinear evolutionary PDE and fluid-structure PDE specialists will serve as a departure point from which new inroads will be made towards understanding the asymptotic behavior of solutions to nonlinear fluid-structure PDE dynamics. The projected collaborations arising from KUMUNU Lincoln 2017 could provide new mathematical insights into experimentally and numerically observed fluid-structure phenomena.
