NSF-CBMS Regional Research Conference in Mathematical Sciences: The Global Behavior of Solutions to Critical Nonlinear Wave Equations
Month: June 2013
Date: June 17--21
Name: NSF-CBMS Regional Research Conference in Mathematical Sciences: The Global Behavior of Solutions to Critical Nonlinear Wave Equations
Location: Kansas State University, Manhattan, Kansas.
Description
The conference will feature ten lectures by Professor Carlos Kenig (University of Chicago) on 'The Global Behavior of Solutions to Critical Nonlinear Wave Equations'. The main topic of the lectures will be about issues of local and global well-posedness, scattering, finite-time blow-up and soliton resolution for a class of non-linear dispersive equations, namely the focusing, energy-critical nonlinear wave equation and the related energy-critical co-rotational wave maps into the sphere.
Invited speakers
In addition to Carlos Kenig's ten lectures, there will be eight 50-minute talks by invited speakers: Ioan Bejenaru (University of California San Diego), Thomas Duyckaerts (Université Paris 13), Justin Holmer (Brown University), Andrea Nahmod (University of Massachusetts Amherst), Natasa Pavlovic (University of Texas at Austin), Gustavo Ponce (University of California Santa Barbara), Gigliola Staffilani (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Luis Vega (Universidad del País Vasco).
