Bin Cheng gives a talk at DAMTP Cambridge

Bin Cheng visited the Mathematical Sciences Institute at the University of Cambridge on Thursday 30 May to give a talk in the Applied and Computational Analysis Series.  The title of the talk was “Analysis of some nonlinear PDEs from multi-scale geophysical applications“.  The talk was on PDE systems from geophysical applications with multiple time scales, […]


Bartuccelli & Wright paper appears in Appl Math Lett

The paper “On a class of Hill’s equations having explicit solutions“, by Michele Bartuccelli, Guido Gentile (Roma III) and James Wright has been accepted for publication in Applied Mathematics Letters.  In the paper they present a class of Hill’s equations possessing explicit solutions through elementary functions. In addition some applications are provided by using some […]


Lloyd organises workshop at IMA-Minnesota

Gregory Faye (Minnesota) and David Lloyd are organising a one-day special workshop at the IMA, University of Minnesota on Tuesday 28 May.  The title of the workshop is “Analysis and Computation of Coherent Structures” and the website is here.  The aim of this one-day workshop is to present an overview of some of the techniques, […]


Roulstone article on climate appears in Huffington Post

The article “Can math improve climate prediction?” by Ian Roulstone and John Norbury was published on 23 May in the The Blog of the Huffington Post.  The article discusses the role of mathematics in modelling the distribution of water, and in particular rain, in a background of changing average temperature, using material from their recently […]


Tronci paper to appear in Arch Rat Mech Anal

The paper “Equivalent theories of liquid crystal dynamics” has been accepted for publication in the Archives for Rational Mechanics and Analysis.  The authors are Francois-Gay Balmaz (Paris), Tudor Ratiu (Lausanne) and Cesare Tronci.  An abstract of the paper follows. There are two competing descriptions of nematic liquid crystal dynamics: the Ericksen-Leslie director theory and the […]
