Gianne Derks and Tom Bridges are visiting the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) this week (23-27 July) for the Conference on Mathematics of Wave Phenomena. Gianne is speaking in MS12 (Pattern formation and localized structures) and her talk title is “One-dimensional periodic solutions in a three-component reaction-diffusion system“. Tom is speaking in MS8 (Geometric methods in spectral theory of traveling waves) and his talk title is “On coalescing characteristics in Whitham modulation theory: the (Krein) sign characteristic and its nonlinear implications”. Further detail can be found at the conference website linked above.
