CONFERENCE SCHEDULE




CONFERENCE LECTURES



ABSTRACT

Mathematical models of random media are central to our understanding of many physical systems, with applications to atmospheric science, wireless communications in urban environments, physiological imaging and electronic transport in nano-structures. A central question is how disordered environments affect energy transport.

GOALS

This workshop will present recent developments on wave propagation, scattering and diffusion in random medias at the interface of probability theory, mathematical physics and PDEs. Accessible lectures by leading mathematicians will catalyze interactions among both junior and senior researchers in fundamental and applied fields.
