Many applications of mathematics in the natural and life   sciences are based on complex mathematical models, often in the form of ordinary and partial differential equations, functional differential equations or difference equations. Understanding the behaviour of such models requires a multitude of analytical and computational approaches. The members of the "Applied Mathematics" group of the joint Ottawa-Carleton Institute of Mathematics and Statistics represent a wide range of expertise in this area (e.g. analysis, bifurcations, dynamical systems, fluid dynamics, functional differential equations, mathematical biology, nonlinear optics, scientific computation, shape optimization). The goal of this event is to bring together all nearby researchers in this area, exchange recent results, inspire new approaches and collaborations, and showcase the wide and exciting range of analysis and applications to a wider community. This one-day event will feature two keynote speakers as well as several talks by local faculty.
