The Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF) is a networking conference where 200 carefully selected young researchers in mathematics and computer science spend a week interacting with the laureates of the disciplines: recipients of the Abel Prize, ACM A.M. Turing Award, ACM Prize in Computing, Fields Medal and Nevanlinna Prize. Established in 2013, the HLF is annually organized by the Heidelberg Laureate Forum Foundation (HLFF). Read more
Congratulations to Abimbola Abolarinwa for winning the IMU-Simons African Fellowship for the research stay at our Analysis & PDE Centre of Ghent University, from June 1, 2022 – August 31, 2022.
The award is to work on the joint project
Picone type identities and their applications in the analysis of partial differential equations
Dr Abimbola Abolarinwa is from the Department of Mathematics, University of Lagos, Nigeria, having done his PhD at the University of Sussex, UK.
The IMU – Simons African Fellowship Programsupports research sabbaticals for mathematicians from African developing countries employed in Africa to travel to an internationally renown mathematical centre of excellence (worldwide) for collaborative research. All travel and living expenses of the grantees will be covered by the fellowship up to 5,000 USD. See more here. Please also see Simons Foundation Website.
The past decade has witnessed enormous advances and progress in the fields of Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations. The new research, along with the developments of novel tools, techniques and ideas, at the same time has led to the formation of many challenging and fundamental open problems, that as ever, point at interesting and deep connections inside and outside mathematics. These range from real and harmonic analysis, algebraic and differential topology on the one hand to geometric analysis, regularity theory for elliptic systems, geometric measure theory, nonlinear elasticity and fluid mechanics on the other. The aim of this conference is to address some of these developments through a series of lectures and talks by some of the leading researchers in the fields.
Dear Colleagues, We have a new joint ZOOM seminar organised by Bahçesehir University (Istanbul, Turkey), Analysis & PDE Center (Ghent, Belgium), and Institute of Mathematics and Mathematical Modeling (Almaty, Kazakhstan).
Seminar’s webpage and the schedule of speakers can be found at the following

2021 is the year of recovering from the coronavirus outbreak from 2020. But it was still a fruitful year for our Analysis & PDE Center at Ghent University. Here, we summarise the main highlights from this year.
Members of our Analysis & PDE Centre in 2021 attracted more than €6,250,000 in research funding, as well as received a number of prestigious awards and prizes for their research.
These grants are for graduate students, postdocs and other early career mathematicians traveling to ICM 2022. They are given in partnership with ICM 2022 LOC and are established in addition to the national Kovalevskaya grants. Read more
Linear and nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) arise in basically all sciences (physics, chemistry, medicine, engineering, astronomy, etc.). In physics, they model several important phenomena, from propagation of waves in a medium (for instance propagation of seismic waves during an earthquake) to refraction in crystals and gas-dynamics. The purpose of this UK network on hyperbolic equations and related topics is to bring together the expertise on hyperbolic equations of three different mathematics department (Edinburgh, Imperial, Loughborough), to strengthen the existing research collaborations and to create new ones. Three 1-day workshops per year are planned focused on different approaches to hyperbolic equations and related topics (inverse problems, kinetic theory, imaging, microlocal analysis, general relativity, etc.).

Earlier, Nurgissa Yessirkegenov received several prestigious international awards for achievements in research among young scientists, such as “Santander Mobility Grant” (Great Britain, 2017), “Heidelberg Laureate Forum Grant” (Germany, 2017), “Doris Chen Merit Award” (Great Britain, 2018), “Doris Chen Mobility Grant” (Great Britain, 2018), Axioms Prize (Switzerland, 2018) and a grant from the London Mathematical Society “Early Career Fellowship” (Great Britain, 2019).
In January 2020 Nurgissa defended his PhD at Imperial College London (London, UK) on the topic: “Function spaces on Lie groups and their applications” under the guidance of Professor Michael Ruzhansky.
During his doctoral studies, Nurgissa received Imperial College’s highest “Doris Chen Merit Award” for talented PhD doctoral students. The Faculty of Mathematics of Imperial College London honors this award for exceptional early perspective and achievement, and it is presented on a rigorous competitive basis.
So far, Nurgissa has 22 scientific papers published in journals indexed in the Clarivate Analytics (ISI) Web of Knowledge database and 25 scientific papers in journals indexed in Scopus. He has a Hirsch index of 5 in the Clarivate Analytics (ISI) Web of Knowledge and Scopus databases.
