Agenda

Selected from 24 sessions.

  • Friday, 10 July 09:30 – 10:30

    Numerical analysis of the high-frequency Helmholtz equation using semiclassical analysis

    This talk considers the numerical solution of high-frequency scattering problems modelled by the Helmholtz equation with a bounded obstacle. Although the analysis of this problem d…

  • Friday, 10 July 11:10 – 12:00

    The geometry of the adapted Bures-Wasserstein space

    The Adapted Wasserstein distance has been proven to be a suitable metric for comparing stochastic processes while accounting for the evolution of information in time, especially fo…

  • Friday, 17 July 09:30 – 10:30

    Differential algebra, Galois theory and Enumerative Combinatorics

    A basic problem in Enumerative Combinatorics is to count the number of objects with fixed size in a class of objects, as for instance, to enumerate the number of plane trees of siz…

  • Friday, 17 July 11:10 – 12:00

    Graph complexity measures: structure and algorithms

    What structural graph properties are useful in designing efficient algorithms? Tree decompositions have been successfully used for this purpose, provided that the decomposition is …

    Award Ceremony

    Vasil A. Popov Prize

  • Monday, 13 July 09:35 – 10:30

    Generative Flows for Sampling from Continuous and Discrete Distributions

    Generative flows, in particular flow matching provides state-of-the-art performance for sampling from (conditional) continuous distributions. The talk gives a brief introduction in…

  • Monday, 13 July 11:10 – 12:00

    What is Matrix Hydrodynamics?

    Two-dimensional (2-D) fluids produce fascinating patterns of swirling motion. How and why the patterns emerge are long-standing questions, first addressed in the 19th century. Coun…
