      [OWR-2022-37] (2022) - (14 Aug - 20 Aug 2022)
      The Calculus of Variations is at the same time a classical subject, with long-standing open questions which have generated exciting discoveries in recent decades, and a modern subject in which new types of questions ...

    • 2032 - Calculus of Variations (hybrid meeting) 

      [OWR-2020-22] (2020) - (02 Aug - 08 Aug 2020)
      Calculus of Variations touches several interrelated areas. In this workshop we covered several topics, such as minimal submanifolds, mean curvature and related flows, free boundary problems, variational models of ...

    • Cataland: Why the Fuß? 

      [OWP-2019-01] Stump, Christian; Thomas, Hugh; Williams, Nathan (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-01-21)
      The three main objects in noncrossing Catalan combinatorics associated to a finite Coxeter system are noncrossing partitions, clusters, and sortable elements. The first two of these have known Fuß-Catalan generalizations. ...

    • Categoric Aspects of Authentication 

      [OWP-2012-05] Schillewaert, Jeroen; Thas, Koen (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2012-04-24)

    • Categorical Linearly Ordered Structures 

      [OWP-2018-08] Downey, Rod; Melnikov, Alexander; Ng, Keng Meng (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2018-04-26)
      We prove that for every computable limit ordinal $\alpha$ there exists a computable linear ordering $\mathcal{A}$ which is $\Delta^0_\alpha$-categorical and $\alpha$ is smallest such, but nonetheless for every isomorphic ...

    • A categorical model for the virtual braid group 

      [OWP-2011-19] Kauffman, Louis H.; Lambropoulou, Sofia (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2011-05-18)

    • Cauchy Completeness, Lax Epimorphisms and Effective Descent for Split Fibrations 

      [OWP-2023-06] Lucatelli Nunes, Fernando; Prezado, Rui; Sousa, Lurdes (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-06-19)
      For any suitable base category $\mathcal{V} $, we find that $\mathcal{V} $-fully faithful lax epimorphisms in $\mathcal{V} $-$\mathsf{Cat} $ are precisely those $\mathcal{V}$-functors $F \colon \mathcal{A} \to \mathcal{B}$ ...

    • Central Limit Theorems for the Radial Spanning Tree 

      [OWP-2014-18] Schulte, Matthias; Thäle, Christoph (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2014)
      Consider a homogeneous Poisson point process in a compact convex set in d-dimensional Euclidean space which has interior points and contains the origin. The radial spanning tree is constructed by connecting each point of ...
