Research at UW-Madison in DifferentialEquations
Seminars of interest
The weekly PDE & Geometric Analysis seminar is held on Monday afternoons, 3:30-4:30pm.
Other seminars that will feature PDE related material are the Geometry and Topology seminar, the Analysis seminar, and the Applied and Computational Math seminar.
Upcoming events
This spring the Midwest PDE seminar will be held in Madison on April 21/22 (2018).
