Clay Institute Geometry and Fluids Workshop organised by Surrey team

clay-300x97A workshop on “Geometry and Fluids“, organised by the Surrey team: Jock McOrist, Ian Roulstone and Martin Wolf, will be held at the Clay Mathematics Institute, in the Andrew Wiles Building, at Oxford University, from Monday 7th April to Friday 11th April 2014.  The workshop will focus on the following topics

  • Elliptic Monge-Ampère equations, hyper-Kähler geometry, and the classification of incompressible flows in two dimensions (4 dimensions in terms of the phase space of the fluid)
  • Optimal transport on manifolds and the mathematics of quasi-equilibrium atmosphere/ocean flows
  • Generalized complex structures and the local balance between vorticity and rate of strain in 3d turbulent flows (6 dimensions in terms of the phase space of the fluid)

The website for the conference is here.
