What is semiclassical analysis?

Semiclassical analysis is a set of methods allowing to study partial  differential equations with rapidly oscillating solutions. The first semiclassical tools were developed in the early 20th century by physicists, in order to understand the relation between quantum and  classical mechanics. Since the 1970s, it has become a standard tool in mathematical analysis, through the use of oscillatory integrals and pseudodifferential operators. In the past few years, semiclassical analysis has been increasingly used in numerical analysis of high frequency wave problems, both to understand convergence properties of existing algorithms and to design new ones.

What is Semiclapp?

Semiclapp is a summer school meant as an introduction to semiclassical analysis for participants with a minimal background in mathematical analysis of PDEs, and interested in applications involving numerical aspects of wave propagation or quantum mechanics. The school is divided into five lectures of two hours ranging from the presentation of the basic tools of the theory to advanced results. Each lecture, except the last one, is complemented by an exercise section of three hours. Semiclapp will thus focus on practice and applications of semiclassical techniques more than on theoretical aspects. The participants will also have the opportunity of presenting their work in a poster session.

Where and when is Semiclapp?

Semiclapp will take place in the Laboratoire J.A. Dieudonné, in Nice, on the Valrose campus, from May 13th to 17th.

It will start on Monday morning around 9 a.m., and finish on Friday around 12 a.m.

How to register?

Just fill in the form by clicking « my registration » on the left menu. Your registration will be confirmed a few days later by the organizers. We should have a limited amount of funding to pay for the accommodation of the participants, dedicated in priority to the youngest researchers. If you want to benefit from this funding, you can indicate it it the registration link.

For the participants who applied for funding, we should be able to cover their accomodation, by rooms of 2-3, but not their travel.

The deadline for registrations is February 23rd.
