The aim of this meeting was to develop meaningful interactions between two important European research centres in analysis; the Maxwell Institute in Edinburgh and the Basque Centre for Applied Mathematics in Bilbao.
We organised the programme around three themes which are seeing a recent surge of exciting activity and which cover the core interest of the communities of both nodes:
- harmonic analysis;
- analysis of dispersive PDEs;
- variational techniques.
Both these centres include academics at all careers stages, including a critical mass of PhD students and postdoctoral researchers. The programme included talks from members of the two centres at all career stages, including PhD students, complemented by a substantial amount of time devoted to discussion of research directions, to open problems, and to work in groups.
