TSVP Talk: "Degenerate PDEs and Their Underlying Sub-Riemannian Structure" by Federica Dragoni
In the talk, I will show how PDEs, which may appear highly degenerate at first glance, become far more regular when interpreted within a different underlying geometry. In particular, I will focus on PDEs related to the so-called Hörmander regularity theory, which is connected to sub-Riemannian geometries such as the Heisenberg group and Carnot groups. The aim is to provide an overview of this theory that is accessible to a broad scientific audience; therefore, I will mostly concentrate on simple yet significant examples.

Outreach event by Prof. Federica Dragoni: Math&Board Game Evening
Subject: Upcoming Social Event: Math Outreach & Board Game Night!
Hi everyone,
Are you interested in math education, school outreach, or just looking for a fun break between lectures?
You are warmly invited to an informal social gathering centered on Math Outreach and Board Games , hosted by visiting scientist Professor Federica Dragoni (Cardiff University).
This is a casual space for PhD students, young researchers, and senior staff to hang out, talk about innovative teaching approaches, and—most importantly—play some games! ※Since the venue isn't very large, if there are a large number of participants, admission will be on a first-come, first-served basis.※
What to expect:
The Games: We will have a curated mix of popular commercial board games alongside custom mathematical games designed by students. The Goal: Play, test things out, and get inspired by how games can be used as serious tools to share mathematics with schools and the public. The Vibe: Completely informal. Grab a drink/snack, join a table, and chat freely with peers and faculty.Whether you want to brainstorm your next outreach project or just want to roll some dice and talk math, we hope to see you there!

VC Mentoring Hours: Lifetime Ventures
In collaboration with leading venture capital firms, OIST Innovation offers startups and entrepreneurial researchers or students the opportunity to connect directly with venture capitalists for one-on-one mentoring and discussion. Each round begins with an open seminar-style introduction, where participants can learn about the VC firm's investment focus and characteristics. This is followed by private, closed-door mentoring sessions between startups/researchers/students and the VC representatives.
The featured VC for this round is Lifetime Ventures .

OISTキッズレクチャー「沖縄から宇宙へ~少女よ、大志を抱け!~」
Okinawa to Space
沖縄「慰霊の日」 講演会 2026
Learn About Okinawa's History: Irei No Hi (Battle of Okinawa) (Language: Japanese with simultaneous English translation) June 23 is Okinawa Memorial Day. To mark the occasion, a special lecture on Okinawa's history and war will be held on June 17 (Wed) 14:00-16:00 in the OIST Auditorium.
This is a valuable opportunity to learn about the history of the land and people of Onna Village.
We will welcome Takahiro Seto,from the Onna Village Museum, who will provide context on the Battle of Okinawa, combat zones in Onna Village, and how these events impacted local residents. In addition, Terunobu Yamauchi, who was born and raised in Onna Village, will join Mr. Seto in a dialogue to share his personal experiences of life in Nakadomari during that time.
沖縄「慰霊の日」特別展
This special exhibition to commemorate Okinawa Memorial Day presents a selection of wartime photographs from the Onna Village Museum Collection. The images provide a visual account of the events of the Battle of Okinawa.
Okinawa Memorial Day, observed on June 23, marks the end of the Battle of Okinawa in 1945 and honors the over 200,000 lives lost, including many civilians. We invite visitors to take a moment to learn more about this battle, and to reflect on the importance of remembrance.
This exhibition offers visitors and the OIST community a chance to delve into Okinawa's rich history and explore a pivotal event that forever transformed life on the island. To learn more about Okinawa Memorial Day (Irei no Hi) and about the Battle of Okinawa, please visit Uchinaa Culture 09 - Irei no Hi ~慰霊の日~
This event is organized by OIST with thanks to Onna Village Museum.
Free of charge, no registration required.
