ISTITUTO NAZIONALE DI ALTA MATEMATICA (INdAM)

GRUPPO NAZIONALE PER LA FISICA MATEMATICA (GNFM)

50th SUMMER SCHOOL ON MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS

(RAVELLO - SEPTEMBER 1 - 13, 2025)

The school's aim is to give introductive lectures by international experts in Mathematical Physics and Applied Mathematics. The school is mainly addressed to young researchers.
Four courses will be given in a series of 12 lectures scheduled in the morning of each day.

Courses (click on the title to know the contents):

1a. - part I (6 lectures, week I): Mechanics of growth: from physics to geometry, Giuseppe Zurlo, (University of Galway)

1b. - part II (6 lectures, week II): Mechanics of nematic shells, Luigi Vergori (Università di Perugia)

2a. - part I (6 lectures, week I): Nonequilibrium phenomena: response to perturbations and metastable behaviour - Part I, Lamberto Rondoni (Politecnico di Torino)

2b. - part II (6 lectures, week II): Nonequilibrium phenomena: response to perturbations and metastable behaviour - Part II, Emilio N.M. Cirillo (Università Sapienza Roma)

3a. - part I (6 lectures, week I) Phase-field models for tumor growth: Optimal Control and Early states reconstruction, Elisabetta Rocca (Università di Pavia)

3b. - part II (6 lectures, week II): Approaches to modelling heterogeneity in solid tumour growth, Helen Byrne (University of Oxford)

4a. - part I (6 lectures, week I): Hyperbolic models for dispersive phenomena, Sergey Gavrilyuk (Aix Marseille Université).

4b. - part II (6 lectures, week II), Interplay between hyperbolic and dispersive equations, Sylvie Benzoni (Université de Lyon)

The lessons will be held from Monday to Saturday. Each participant must attend at least two courses uninterruptedly and for the entire duration of the school, barring exceptional and justified reasons. Some lecture notes will be available during school days. All participants must be active in the seminar activity during the afternoon. This activity will be organized and guided by the teachers.

Those interested who want to attend the school must complete the online form here, no later than 15 May 2025, indicating the two courses they wish to attend and whether they need financial support from the GNFM. The scientific committee of the GNFM will examine the applications, and the final decision will be communicated as soon as possible. Financial support for subsistence and accommodation costs will be available for up to 30 young participants. Travel expenses can only be reimbursed to Italian participants who receive financial support.
