Welcome to the Web-page
of the seventh International Conference on
Harmonic Analysis and Partial Differential Equations. This is a
continuation of a series of Conferences organized by members of the
Department
of Mathematics at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.
The "El Escorial Meetings", as they are known, began in 1979 and were
followed by others in 1983, 1987, 1992 (this one in Miraflores de la
Sierra), 1996 and 2000. The seventh will take place on June
21-25, 2004.
These International Conferences are a meeting point for mathematicians
working in the area of harmonic analysis and the interplay of this with
partial differential equations. They have attracted mathematicians from
all
over the world and their Proceedings have recorded periodically the
basic developments in the above mentioned areas.
The format of this Conferences is somehow special, for it consists of
both short courses and general lectures. Four outstanding
mathematicians in the field of harmonic analysis and partial
differential equations are invited to present, in 3 or 4 one-hour
sessions, a rich and actual piece of mathematics assuming minimal
background from the audience and reaching the frontiers of present day
research. These lectures are thought primarily for young graduate and
post-graduate students or for mathematicians in other areas who want to
become acquainted with the field. In addition to this, the Conference
presents 15 to 20 one-hour lectures of a more specialized nature, given
by invited speakers.
Finally, some sessions of short talks are scheduled to accommodate
those
participants wishing to present their own recent results.
On this occasion, the Conference is organized as part of the events
scheduled by the Research and Training Network
"HARP" (Harmonic Analysis and
Related Problems), supported by the European Commission.
We hope that you will find in these pages all the information that you
need as a potential participant in the Conference, and we look forward
to
see you in El Escorial.
