Scope of the Seminar

The aim of this interdisciplinary seminar is to foster the communication between researchers from both applied and theoretical sciences working with partial differential equations. This includes mathematical modeling, numerical simulations and computation, as well as qualitative and quantitative analysis of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations.

Anybody with an interest in partial differential equations is cordially invited to attend. If you would like to contribute a talk, please contact the organizers.

The seminar will meet regularly at University Park and Altoona.
