Bridging PDE and Geometric Flows: an LMS-HIMR Research School

Join our research school and learn about PDE aspects of geometric flows.

Date: 22- 26 July 2024
Venue: Abacws Building, Senghennydd Road, Cardiff, CF24 4AG, Wales

Event overview

The field of geometric flows lies at the intersection of PDEs, differential geometry, and convex geometry. Prominent prototypes like Ricci flow solved the Poincaré conjecture but require advanced PDE theory beyond undergraduate courses. This school will make accessible the technical PDE aspects of geometric flows through application to curvature flows and geometry.

Who should apply

The school suits PhD students and early career researchers in PDEs or differential geometry.

How to apply

If you are interested in applying, please provide the following documents:

  • Fill in the application form
  • Provide a cover letter. Please explain the reasons for your interest in the summer school and its relation to your work
  • An up-to-date CV, including academic qualifications
  • Evidence of academic quality, for example, a transcript of records
  • One letter of recommendation from a referee, for example, your supervisor, one of your lecturers, etc.

The deadline for submissions is 7 April 2024. All documents should be sent to scheuer@math.uni-frankfurt.de.

Important: In the application form you have the chance to indicate whether you would like to apply for financial support. After the selection of participants and in case you are selected, you will be asked to provide details demonstrating your need for financial support.

For international applicants, please find out about your visa requirements to enter the UK and make sure that you apply for your visa as early as possible, if applicable. Upon request, we can provide supporting statements.
