A generalized finite-difference time-domain scheme for solving nonlinear Schrödinger equations

The nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) is one of the most widely applicable equations in physical science, and is used to characterize nonlinear dispersive waves, plasmas, nonlinear optics, water waves, quantum computing, and the dynamics of molecules. In this talk, we present an accurate generalized finite-difference time-domain (G-FDTD) scheme for solving nonlinear Schrödinger equations. T...

The Lotharingian impact on Combinatorial Mathematics: myth or reality?

It is very fortunate that two, and sometimes three, sessions of the Séminaire Lotharingien have been held every year since its beginning in 1980. Otherwise, several of us, at least the confirmed optimists, would have witnessed the jubilee in Paradise! Anyway, this is a great privilege to have all of you here, at the Domaine Saint-Jacques, a place regarded as a valeur sûre by the younger generat...

Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach

Oberwolfach Tagungsbericht 26/1999 Partial Di erential Equations 13.06.1999 { 19.06.1999 This meeting was organized by L. C. Evans (Berkeley), S. M uller (MPI Leipzig) and E. Kuwert (Freiburg). The 22 delivered talks addressed a broad spectrum of questions for nonlinear partial di erential equations. Most of the considered problems arise in geometry or in physics, as for example submanifolds w...
