Pisa: Centro De Giorgi

The aim of this workshop is to gather together leading experts and young researchers in the field of Calculus of Variations with a particular focus on applications. This field is currently blossoming and we hope that this workshop will be the occasion to foster new collaborations among the participants.

VIDEO: a playlist of the talks is available on Youtube.

The workshop will take place in hybrid mode, with a maximum of 50 persons in presence. Upon reaching this maximum limit, registration will close automatically. In the event of impediments due to new covid-19 pandemic measures, the school will run completely from remote on the same dates.

Online participation requires registration as well. If you plan on attending online, send an email to the address: crm@sns.it
