Geometric Methods in PDE's: a conference on the occasion of the 65th birthday of Ermanno Lanconelli

The scope of this conference is o celebrate the 65th birthday of Ermanno Lanconelli and to bring together Italian and foreign Mathematicians to promote the discussion in the areas of research where Ermanno Lanconelli has been particularly active:second order linear and nonlinear partial differential equations with non-negative characteristic form; geometric problems related to the underlying algebraic, geometrical or topological structure; application to complex geometry and CR manifoldsThese fields are the objects of active research and development, and possess a remarkable degree of interrelation in their pure and applied aspects. In particular they find natural applications in mathematical finance, in the description of the visual cortex and in image processing.
