DESC 2004 - Seminar on
Differential Equations with Symbolic Computation
Beihang University
Beijing, China, April 14-16, 2004
This informal seminar will provide the participant with an opportunity to
learn basic techniques and recent advances on a few selected topics of
differential equations with symbolic computation, to present his or her own
research, and to discuss his or her work, ideas and new findings with others.
Confirmed main invited talks will be given by:
- Michael Singer (North Carolina State University, USA)
- Lan Wen (Peking University, China)
- Wen-tsün Wu (Chinese Academy of Sciences)
- Zhifen Zhang (Peking University, China)
One clear objective of the seminar is to bring together foreign experts
and Chinese researchers actively working on symbolic methods and techniques
for differential equations to exchange ideas, views, and new results
and to build up contacts for future cooperation. If you are interested
in attending this seminar and giving a 30-minute talk, please send the
title and an abstract of your talk to the organizers by March 5, 2004.
Your work on any aspect interrelating differential equations with
symbolic computation will be considered for presentation at the
seminar. Specific topics include:
- Symbolic integration and solution of differential equations
- Elimination theory and methods for algebraic differential systems
- Differential algebra, differential algebraic geometry, and
differential Galois theory
- Symbolic methods for qualitative analysis of differential equations
and dynamical systems
- Applications of symbolic computation in differential equations
- Differential equations for symbolic-numeric computation
There is no registration fee for the seminar. Partial financial support
for the local expenses of a limited number of participants will be provided.
Lodging and travel information will be sent to each potential participant.
DESC 2004 is the second of a series of seminars, organized in China,
on various subjects interacted with symbolic computation. The
first
seminar, held in Hefei from April 24-26, 2002, was focused on
geometric computation and a book
on this subject is in press by World Scientific,
Singapore New Jersey. A volume in connection with DESC 2004 will also be
published after the meeting.
