The past decade has witnessed enormous advances and progress in the fields of Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations. The new research, along with the developments of novel tools, techniques and ideas, at the same time has led to the formation of many challenging and fundamental open problems, that as ever, point at interesting and deep connections inside and outside mathematics. These range from real and harmonic analysis, algebraic and differential topology on the one hand to geometric analysis, regularity theory for elliptic systems, geometric measure theory, nonlinear elasticity and fluid mechanics on the other. The aim of this conference is to address some of these developments through a series of lectures and talks by some of the leading researchers in the fields.


Poster Presentation [Closed now deadline passed]

There will be allocated time for presentation of posters during one of the breaks in the conference. If you would like to submit and have your poster presented at the conference, please do so by emailing the organisers. We will collate and arrange them for display in the poster presentation slot and will also post them on the conference website. (Email kvmaths7@gmail.com ). Last date: 10 May 2022
