Joint Los Alamos National Laboratory, Arizona State University,
University of Arizona, and the University of New Mexico Conference on
Los Alamos / Arizona Days
Emerging Paradigms in Nonlinear Science
January 25-28, 2006
Thursday talks will be held at the 3rd floor lecture room of the Hilltop House.
Friday talks will be held in the Motorola building.
Saturday talks will be held at the 3rd floor lecture room of the Hilltop House.

The conference is dedicated to Basil Nicolaenko
to honor his role in the founding
of the CNLS and his many important contributions to nonlinear analysis.

The general
theme of the conference will be mathematical and computational aspects of
nonlinear evolution equations with a particular emphasis on the Boltzmann
equation and nonlinear partial differential equations of fluid dynamics.
During the last decade these have been areas of active research leading to
significant advances and involving considerable analytical technology.
Invited speakers will discuss emerging paradigms in nonlinear science from
their own unique interdisciplinary perspectives.
The
highlighted talks will be followed on Friday and Saturday by the annual Los
Alamos/Arizona Days workshop in nonlinear science. This informal conference is held every year
in order to maintain regular contact between the Applied Math Programs at the
University of Arizona, Arizona State University, the University of New
Mexico, and the Center for Nonlinear Studies at Los Alamos National
Laboratory, and to present highlights of current research at these
institutions.
This event
is an opportunity to exchange ideas, present new findings, and meet new
people (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, professors, and technical
staff members).
|
The last two days of the
conference will have talks presenting highlights of recent research at the
participating institutions.
