- Abstract
  
  We give two extensions of the classical Vieta (or Viète) formula.
  The first extension leads to the classical Fabius function, an infinitely differentiable function that is nowhere analytic. The second extension discusses the corresponding formula for
  the elliptic curves with complex multiplication $y^2=x^3 -Dx$, $y^2=x^3-D$.

Abstract

In the last two decades great progress has been made in the study of dispersive and wave equations. Over the years the toolbox used in order to attack highly nontrivial problems related to these equations has developed to include a collection of techniques: Fourier and harmonic analysis, analytic number theory, math physics, dynamical systems, probability and symplectic geometry. In this talk I will introduce a variety of results using as model problem mainly the periodic 2D cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation. I will start by giving
a physical derivation of the equation from a quantum many-particles
system, I will introduce periodic Strichartz estimates along with some remarkable connections to analytic number theory, I will move on the concept of energy transfer and its connection to dynamical systems, and I will end with some results on the derivation of a wave kinetic equation.

- Abstract
  
  We present a progress report on the development of Discontinuous
  Petrov-Galerkin methods for the convection-reaction problem in
  context of time-stepping and space-time discretizations of Boltzmann
  equations [1].
  The work includes a complete analysis for both conforming (DPGc)
  and non-nonconforming (DPGd) versions of the DPG method employing
  either globally continuous or discontinuous piece-wise polynomials to
  discretize the traces.
  The results include construction of a local Fortin operator for
  the case of constant convection and a global discrete stability
  analysis for both DPGc and DPGd methods.
  The theoretical findings are illustrated with numerous numerical
  experiments in two space dimensions.
  
  This is a joint work with Nathan Roberts from Sandia National Laboratories.

- Abstract
  
  Massless field equations are fundamental in particle physics. In Clifford analysis, a version of these equations in Euclidean space of dimension 4 have been studied. In this talk, we shall discuss a recent development on this topic. In particular, for fields with values in a general irreducible spin module, as an analogue of massless field equations we propose the so-called generalized Cauchy-Riemann equations introduced by E. Stein and G. Weiss. Then we describe Fischer decompositions of massless fields up to spin 3/2. This is a joint work with V. Soucek, W. Wang, F. Brackx and H. De Schepper.
