EUROPEAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY SUMMER SCHOOL
on
WAVELET METHODS IN ANALYSIS AND SIMULATION
Orsay,
France, June 29 to July 10, 1998
In recent years, new ideas related to multiscale methods and
wavelet
bases have appeared in many area of applied mathematics and engineering
sciences, such as
-
Signal and image processing
-
Numerical analysis and scientific computing
-
Turbulence analysis and multifractal analysis
-
Statistical estimation and modeling
These ideas are practically implementable by fast and simple algorithms,
while the understanding of their effectiveness in the above applications,
relies on a strong input of theoretical harmonic analysis and approximation
theory.
This summer school is intended to provide in two weeks with:
-
A basic theoretical understanding of the main mathematical tools and concepts
underlying wavelet-based methods. This will be provided by a basic course
of 10 hours, during the two weeks.
-
An more detailed insight on the specific applications and of the potential
of wavelet methods in comparison with other methods. A series of thematic
short courses (2 to 5 hours) will be devoted to this task.
-
A practical experience of the implementation of these methods, in the context
of the above aplications, by programming exercise sessions on the computer
equipment that will be provided at the site.
The two weeks will have distinct orientations: analysis problems
using
multiscale decomposition of the data in the first week, and numerical
simulation problems using the multiscale representation of the unknowns
in
the second week.
In the same location, a third week of summer school will take
place from
July 13 to 18, specifically dealing with domain decomposition methods.
Informations on this activity, as well as registration forms, will
be
available on the site http://www.asci.fr by the end of February 98.
The school is especially addressed to PhD students and confirmed
researchers in applied mathematics, as well as researchers from industry
dealing with numerical problems. During these two weeks, they are expected
to interact fruitfully together with leading expert in concerned field.
Lectures will take place at laboratoire ASCI on the campus of
University
Paris XI, Orsay, 30mn from Paris by train. Accomodation at reasonable
price
is possible on the campus.
