• 21 February 2012
  John Ockendon - Oxford University
  PDE systems that are hard to classify
  
  Abstract:
  Systems of Quasi Linear First Order p.d.e's are sometimes degenerate in that characteristic surfaces (real or complex) cannot be readily identified. This talk will describe some such systems that arise in applications and discuss some of their properties.
  
  This will be joint work with Andrew Lacey and Sam Howison.

• Wednesday 28 March 2012 - 4pm in room 505
  Artur Avila - Universite Paris 7, IMPA
