Short Talks upon Philosophy.

Short talks

This talk concerns Dirichlet and Neumann boundary value problems for second order elliptic divergence form equations with non-symmetric, or more general complex, and measurable coefficients independent of the transversal coordinate in the upper half space. I shall discuss some recent results obtained which shows that, in the case of non-symmetric coefficients, the solutions obtained with the bo...

In 2009, Peter Cameron introduced a common generalization of various classes of combinatorial designs such as balanced incomplete block designs, resolvable designs and orthogonal arrays. Generalized covering and packing designs can be defined in analogous way. These objects bring into this framework further classes of designs, including covering and packing arrays, Howell designs, monogamous cy...
