Analogue mathematical instruments: Examples from the “theoretical dynamics” group (France, 1948–1964)
[SNAP-2019-012-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-11-21)Throughout the history of dynamical systems, instruments have been used to calculate and visualize (approximate) solutions of differential equations. Here we describe the approach of a group of physicists and engineers ... -
Deep Learning and Inverse Problems
[SNAP-2019-015-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-11-21)Big data and deep learning are modern buzz words which presently infiltrate all fields of science and technology. These new concepts are impressive in terms of the stunning results they achieve for a large variety of ... -
Expander graphs and where to find them
[SNAP-2019-016-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-11-22)Graphs are mathematical objects composed of a collection of “dots” called vertices, some of which are joined by lines called edges. Graphs are ideal for visually representing relations between things, and mathematical ... -
Limits of graph sequences
[SNAP-2019-010-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-09-04)Graphs are simple mathematical structures used to model a wide variety of real-life objects. With the rise of computers, the size of the graphs used for these models has grown enormously. The need to efficiently represent ... -
The Mathematics of Fluids and Solids
[SNAP-2019-019-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-12-18)Fluid-structure interaction is a rich and active field of mathematics that studies the interaction between fluids and solid objects. In this short article, we give a glimpse into this exciting field, as well as a ... -
Nonlinear Acoustics
[SNAP-2019-008-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-09-04)Nonlinear acoustics has been a topic of research for more than 250 years. Driven by a wide range and a large number of highly relevant industrial and medical applications, this area has expanded enormously in the last ... -
On Logic, Choices and Games
[SNAP-2019-009-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-09-04)Can we always mathematically formalise our taste and preferences? We discuss how this has been done historically in the field of game theory, and how recent ideas from logic and computer science have brought an interesting ... -
A surprising connection between quantum mechanics and shallow water waves
[SNAP-2019-018-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-12-11)We describe a connection between quantum mechanics and nonlinear wave equations and highlight a few problems at the forefront of modern research in the intersection of these areas. -
Touching the transcendentals: tractional motion from the bir th of calculus to future perspectives
[SNAP-2019-013-EN] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-11-21)When the rigorous foundation of calculus was developed, it marked an epochal change in the approach of mathematicians to geometry. Tools from geometry had been one of the foundations of mathematics until the 17th century ...
