COESME at IISER Pune in association with the national academies of science hass organised:
Intertwining strands in Physics and Mathematics: Fourier analysis
A workshop for undergraduate teachers in Mathematics and Physics
Dates: January 19-23, 2018
About: While the deep relationship between Physics and Mathematics, where ideas from one have often given very important insights and applications in the other, is very well-appreciated by the experts, this is often not adequately emphasized in the college level teaching of these subjects in India at B.Sc./M.Sc. level. The aim of this workshop will be to expose Indian teachers in mathematics and physics to these shared grounds We will discuss the physical context of mathematical ideas, and vice versa, by taking Fourier analysis as an example.
Topics: Basic concepts of Fourier theory, applications in Physics, applied mathematics, and computer science; e.g. functional analysis, partial differential equations, spectroscopy, signal-processing, complexity theory.
Application Process: Click to apply online
Support: There are no registration fees. Selected participants will be provided local hospitality. Outstation participants will be reimbursed round trip 3-tier train fare (shortest route) from place of residence. Participants are expected to stay for the full duration of the workshop.
Organizers: Rohini Godbole (IISc Bengaluru) and Deepak Dhar (IISER Pune)
