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.

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 .

Title : Degenerate PDEs and Their Underlying Sub-Riemannian Structure

Speaker : Federica Dragoni, Cardiff University

Abstract :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.

Profile :

Federica Dragoni studied Mathematics at the University of Florence and obtained her PhD in Mathematics from the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa. She subsequently held research and academic positions at the University of Pittsburgh (USA), the Max Planck Institute in Leipzig (Germany), the University of Padova (Italy), and Imperial College London (UK). In 2011, she joined Cardiff University, where she has been a Full Professor of Mathematics since 2021. Her research focuses on degenerate nonlinear partial differential equations associated with Hörmander-type conditions. More broadly, her work lies at the interface between mathematical analysis and geometry. These PDEs are typically linked to underlying geometric structures in sub-Riemannian settings, such as the Heisenberg group, Carnot groups, and more general sub-Riemannian manifolds. Their study requires tools from partial differential equations, control theory, metric geometry, and geometric analysis.

Language : English

Target audience : General audience/everyone at OIST and beyond. Freely accessible to all OIST members and guests without registration.

This talk will also be broadcast online via Zoom: Meeting ID: TBA Passcode: TBA
