Scientific cooperation between Italy and Brazil is 'natural'. It is carried out by 'two university research systems that are already very integrated' to the point that the South American country 'is Italy's fifth academic partner in the world. A closer link than with several countries in Europe itself' Scientific collaboration between Italy and Brazil is characterized by a wide range of activities in different sectors. The two nations have a long history of scientific cooperation, which has intensified in recent decades thanks to exchange programs, bilateral agreements, and joint research projects.
The workshop aims to create a platform for scientific exchange and to promote collaboration between Italian and Brazilian researchers in the field of mathematics. Through conferences, round tables, and institutional meetings, the workshop aims to facilitate the exchange of knowledge, identify areas of common interest, and promote bilateral research projects.
The Brazilian Embassy in Rome will be involved from the outset in the planning and organization of the workshop. Its support will be requested to disseminate the invitation to Brazilian researchers and to facilitate the participation of high-level Brazilian experts. The opening of the workshop will be held at the embassy dedicated to greetings from representatives of the Embassy of Brazil in Rome and the host institutions. The embassy will be invited to actively participate in the opening ceremony and institutional meetings, where it will be able to contribute information on funding opportunities and scientific cooperation initiatives between Italy and Brazil.
An overview of mathematical research in Italy and Brazil will be given, highlighting opportunities for collaboration.
Thematic conferences are planned for the next four days. Italian and Brazilian experts will present their recent research on various topics going from the analysis of partial differential equations (PDEs) that model complex physical phenomena, to studying dynamical systems describing the evolution of complex systems over time, to algebra and geometry investigating the structures and properties of abstract mathematical objects, to applied mathematics seeking to solve practical problems using mathematical tools. Particular reference will be given to research topics that are already the result of pre-existing collaborations.
At the end of each working session, there will be thematic Round Tables where all participants will have the opportunity to explore advanced topics in mathematics and identify possible areas of collaboration.
At the end of the week all the participants will have an overview on the main fields in which there are already well establish collaborations and on those which can foster new scientific developments. At the same time future actions to promote and enhance the collaboration between Italy and Brazil in mathematics will be planned.
