Purpose of the programme

The summer school will focus on the following areas:

• Hyperbolic conservation laws and fluid dynamics
• Kinetic Theory and Quantum Transport

The principle lecturers will present mini-courses on these topics. Other lecturers will also present their latest results in these directions

• Zhouping Xin, Chinese University of Hong Kong and Courant Institute, USA, July 6 - Aug 8

The Mathematical Theory of Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations
• David Levermore, University of Maryland, USA, July 25 - Aug 11

The Mathematical Structure of Kinetic Theories
• Shi Jin , Georgia Institute of Technology, USA, Aug 5 - Aug 21

Multiscale Hyperbolic and Kinetic Problems: Asymptotics and Numerics
• Norbert Mauser, University of Vienna, Austria, Aug 16 - Aug 30
