Support for MCT'03, an International Conference on Mathematical Control Theory at LSU

NSF奖摘要-DMS-0300959数学科学：支持LU数学控制理论国际会议MCT‘03该奖项支持2003年4月在巴吞鲁日的路易斯安那州立大学举行的路易斯安那州数学控制理论会议的与会者的旅费。本次跨学科会议包括30多位控制工程和数学控制理论领域的顶尖研究人员的演讲。主题包括非光滑分析、哈密尔顿-雅可比方程、控制、稳定化和工业应用中的计算方法。会议促进了工程学和数学控制研究人员之间的跨学科联系，并为对应用控制和优化感兴趣的年轻研究人员和研究生提供了与现有控制社区见面和互动的机会。该奖项支持没有其他旅行支持的年轻研究人员和与会者参加会议。这次会议促进了数学控制理论的进步，并增加了工程界和应用数学界之间的互动。会议包括五次全体会议，30多位著名研究人员的较短演讲，以及关于控制工程中公开问题的会议。这次会议包括来自至少8个国家的演讲者，包括学生和年轻教师，进一步促进了世界不同地区之间的合作。将通过出版会议记录来广泛传播会议文件。

NSF Award Abstract - DMS-0300959Mathematical Sciences: Support for MCT'03, an International Conference on Mathematical Control Theory at LSUAbstract0300959 WolenskiThis award supports travel for participants in the Louisiana Conference on Mathematical Control Theory, held at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge in April 2003. This interdisciplinary conference includes talks by over thirty leading researchers in control engineering and mathematical control theory. Topics include nonsmooth analysis, Hamilton-Jacobi equations, computational methods in control, stabilization, and industrial applications. The conference promotes interdisciplinary contact between engineering and mathematical control researchers, and provides opportunities for young researchers and graduate students interested in applied controls and optimization to meet and interact with the established control community. This award supports attendance at the conference by young researchers and participants without other means of travel support.This conference fosters advances in mathematical control theory and increased interaction between the engineering and applied mathematics communities. The meeting includes five plenary talks, shorter lectures by over thirty prominent researchers, and sessions on open problems in control engineering. The conference includes speakers from at least eight countries, including students and young faculty, furthering collaboration among different parts of the world. Broad dissemination of the conference papers will be achieved through the publication of conference proceedings.
