Phase Transitions and Optimal Control 23.10.2008 - 25.10.2008 The workshop focused on three main research areas: Phase transitions, optimal control, and hysteresis. The word ``hysteresis'' is usually attributed to processes that exhibit a rate independent memory. The physical reason for rate independence relies on structure changes in a hidden microstructure, which are much faster than the observer's time scale. Phase transitions offer a typical example of such a behavior. Linkcontact

Workshop on Cycle and Cut Bases 14.05.2008 - 16.05.2008 Although cycle bases were already introduced by Kirchhoff, the mathematics to analyze and the algorithms to compute them are still hot topics.

Le Pli Cacheté. Wolfgang Döblin et les prémices de l'analyse stochastique 19.11.2007 En 1710, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz publie dans Miscellanea Berolinensia la formule fondamentale donnant les dérivées successives d'un produit de fonctions, à partir de laquelle va se développer le calcul différentiel pour les fonctions de variables réelles. Sa maxime "Quod theorema sane memorabile omnibus curvis commune est" restera valable plus de 200 ans. En 1940 cependant, Kiyoshi Itô découvre qu'un tout autre calcul infinitésimal s'applique aux trajectoires de processus de diffusion. La formule dite d'Itô est aujourd'hui le fondement de l'analyse stochastique et a donné lieu dans les dernières décennies à maintes applications au sein et en dehors des mathématiques. En Mai 2000 fut ouvert à l'Académie des sciences de Paris le Pli cacheté nº 11.668, 60 ans après son envoi par Wolfgang Döblin. L'enveloppe contenait un manuscript sur l'interprétation de l'équation de diffusion de Kolmogorow à l'aide d'une construction trajectorielle de processus de Markow en temps continu, eux-mêmes basés sur le mouvement brownien. Au coeur de son raisonnement se trouve une formule de dérivation très analogue à la formule d'Itô. La découverte du contenu de ce Pli cacheté fit donc véritablement sensation dans le monde scientifique.Linkcontact

Multiscale problems in three Applications 29.05.2007 - 01.06.2007

Within the focus of the workshop are three categories of multiscale problems with simultaneous scalings of time, space and further quantities that are characteristic for the case at hand: Discrete lattice models and their continuum limits, Discrete and continuum descriptions of nucleation and subsequent evolutions and Sharp interface limits of phase field systems.

Discrete lattice models serve as prototypes to study various possible limiting cases where a discrete ODE system can be substituted by a single or at least a few PDEs that describe the discrete dynamics on a continuum level.

During the first stages of a phase transition small clusters of the new phase with α particles may grow or shrink by adding or subtracting a single particle. The evolution of the number of clusters is described by an ODE system of Becker-Döring type, which, however, should be substituted by a PDE if clusters above a certain size appear.

Phase field systems resolve the interfacial region so that their evolution may be described by smooth fields. On the scale of microscopic observations the interfacial region mostly appears as a singular surface, where the observable fields change discontinuously. Thus the physical relevance of phase field systems is tested by their sharp interface limits.
