OIST Summer Graduate School "Analysis and Partial Differential Equations"

Summer graduate school will provide five days of concentrated study of topics in Analysis and Partial Differential Equations. The school will offer two minicourses and several plenary lectures on the topics at the forefront of current research in Partial Differential Equations and Potential Theory. The school will be well suited for math graduate students and advanced undergraduate math majors with a wide range of abilities and knowledge. The structure of the courses will be aimed to create an active learning environment through a combination of classical and flipped classroom teaching.
