Mathematical modelling of nanoscale heat flow and phase change (NanoHeat)

Start date: Sep 12, 2016, End date: Sep 11, 2018,

The nanoparticle (NP) lies at the very heart of nanotechnology. The wide range of current and potential uses of NPs, which include medicine, manufacturing, environment, and energy, has stimulated an international research effort focusing on NP synthesis and design. Despite extensive research into NPs, many breakthroughs and advances are the result of trial and error, since the mathematical framewo ...

Industrial applications of moving boundary problems (TMCRM)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

"Moving boundary problems will be studied in the context of two practically important settings: melting of ice in gas flow channels of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells and plaque build-up in arteries (atherosclerosis). The problems are related in that they involve a liquid layer flowing past the moving solid boundary. As well as being mathematically challenging they also all have immediate and ...

"Complex manifolds, foliations by complex leaves and their deformations" (DEFFOL)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2013,

"My proposal is to investigate some new aspects of the geometry of complex manifolds, foliations by complex leaves and their deformations. Emphasis is put on the relations between these three themes.The basic objects of complex geometry are compact complex manifolds. However, only very special classes are well understood. And the only theory which applies to the general case is Kodaira-Spencer the ...

Elliptic Submanifolds in Hyperbolic Geometry (GSCRM)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

"This project studies the application of analytical tools to the resolution of geometric problems. The geometric problems proposed to be studied arise from hyperbolic geometry and representation theory. More precisely, it is proposed to investigate hyperbolic ends and flat conformal structures (FCSs). The former constitute an important part of the study of hyperbolic manifolds in general, since th ...

Algorithms and Complexity of Constraint Satisfaction Problems (Complexity of CSPs)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

Constraint satisfaction problems (CSP) form a general framework that captures a large variety of algorithmic problems. Due to their generality, CSPs are ubiquitous in several areas such as, for example, artificial intelligence, database theory and statistical physics. Therefore it is not surprising that their study is of prominent importance also in computational complexity theory. The proposed re ...

Smooth Ergodic Theory and Partially Hyperbolic Diffeomorphisms (RSCRM)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2011,

"The project deals with the interplay between some local and global aspects of discrete dynamical systems. In the first part we consider several problems related to the Entropy Conjecture. For any map f on a compact manifold M there are some invariants measuring the dynamical complexity at the ‘global’ level (homological or homotopical), like the spectral radius of the map induced on homology, the ...
