Workshop on "Advances in Nonlinear Science"

该奖项提供资金，帮助支付参加2013年3月14日至16日在匹兹堡大学校园举行的非线性科学进展会议的研究生和博士后的费用。研讨会旨在汇聚非线性偏微分方程式(应用和理论两方面)的顶尖专家和研究人员，以现代博弈论及其应用为主题学期的重点。拟议的会议建立在应用于非线性偏微分方程的随机方法的相关性和应用上，这些方法源于博弈论的最新发展。主旨演讲者已经确定，并代表了数学领域的顶尖人物。他们是：范德比尔特大学的E·迪贝内代托、纽约大学的R·V·科恩、哈沃德大学的L·马哈德万和麻省理工学院的G·斯特朗。预计将有30-40人参加研讨会，其中大多数人将来自匹兹堡大学以外的地方。将特别注意招募妇女和少数群体参与者。

This award provides funding to help defray the expenses of graduate students and postdocs attending the Advances in Nonlinear Science that will be held on March 14-16, 2013, on the campus of the University of Pittsburgh. The workshop aims to bring together leading experts and researchers in nonlinear partial differential equations (both on the applied and theoretical sides), with an emphasis of the Theme Semester on the modern game theory with applications. The proposed conference builds on the relevance and applications of stochastic methods applied to non-linear partial differential equations that stem for recent developments in game theory. The keynote speakers have been confirmed and represent top figures in mathematics. These are: E. DiBenedetto of Vanderbilt University, R.V. Kohn of New York University, L. Mahadevan of Havard University and G. Strang of MIT. Between 30-40 participants are expected to participate in the workshop, the majority of whom will be from outside of the University of Pittsburgh. Special attention will be paid to the recruitment of women and minorities participants.
