PASI on Inverse Problems and PDE Control;Valparaiso/Santiago, Chile; January 16-27, 2012

1122928 Uhlmann这个泛美高等研究院（PASI）奖，由美国国家科学基金会和能源部（DOE）联合支持，将于2012年1月16日至27日在智利的三所大学举行：瓦尔帕莱索的Federico Santa María技术大学，圣地亚哥的Pontificia Universidad Católica和智利大学数学建模中心，也在圣地亚哥。 该研究所由加州加州大学欧文分校数学系的Gunther Uhlmann博士组织，将专注于研究偏微分方程（PDE）的反系数问题和控制问题的前沿技术。 逆问题和偏微分方程控制在应用科学和工程领域有着重要的影响，包括物理系统的稳定、识别和设计（如量子控制）、图像处理、数学金融、天文学、地球科学、医学成像和材料的无损评估等。本PASI将向学生介绍上述学科中的许多重要技术。 除了接触和指导年轻科学家的最先进的方法在反问题和PDE控制，这PASI将促进来自美国和美洲不同国家的研究人员之间的国际合作。 此外，将鼓励来自美国和国外的科学家和数学家之间的跨学科努力。 PASI的结果将通过一个网站传播，所有讲座都可以下载。

1122928Uhlmann This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in January 16-27, 2012 at three universities in Chile: the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María in Valparaiso, the Pontificia Universidad Católica in Santiago, and the Center for Mathematical Modeling of the Universidad de Chile, also in Santiago. Organized by Dr. Gunther Uhlmann of the Department of Mathematics at the University of California-Irvine, California, the institute will focus on leading edge techniques used in the study of inverse coefficient problems and control problems for partial differential equations (PDE). Inverse Problems and PDE control have significant impacts on applied science and engineering including applications to stabilization, identification and design of physical systems (e.g. quantum control), image processing, mathematical finance, astronomy, geosciences, medical imaging and non-destructive evaluation of materials, among others.This PASI will introduce students to many important techniques in the above subjects. In addition to the exposure and mentoring of young scientists to state-of-the-art methods in inverse problems and PDE control, this PASI will foster international collaboration among researchers from the US and different countries in the Americas. Further, cross-disciplinary efforts will be encouraged between scientists and mathematicians both from the U.S. and abroad. The results from the PASI will be disseminated through a website where all the lectures will be available for downloading.
