SCIENTIFIC MATHEMATICAL MEETING 2007
March 16, 2007


dmpa07

The scientific meeting is being organized on the occasion of 20th Anniversary of the Department of Pure and Applied Mathematics of the University of Padua and will take place in the new departmental building called "Torre Archimede".
The scientific program will consist of five invited lectures and is intended to be offered to a wide audience of mathematicians.

For organizational reasons, those who intend to participate at the meeting are asked to send a confirmatory e-mail to the Secretary. dmpa07 dmpa07@math.unipd.it



Antonio AMBROSETTI
Professor of Mathematical Analysis at the Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati (SISSA) in Trieste, he was born at Bari on November 25, 1944, and completed his laurea at the University of Padova in 1966.
He has received numerous awards and prizes, including the Caccioppoli Prize in 1985 and Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer prize in 2005. He was awarded the Chaire Lagrange, Paris in 1991, the Foundation B.B.V. chair at Madrid in 1998, and the Iberdrola Chair at Madrid in 2001. He also received in 2005 a Laurea honoris causa at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. He his member of the Accademia dei Lincei of the Accademia delle Scienze of Turin and of the Istituto Veneto. He has been a visiting professor at the University of Wisconsin (Madison), Chicago, Texas (Arlington), Rutgers, E.T.H. in Zurich, the Ecole Polytechnique Federal of Lausanne, Bochum, Bonn, Bremen, Prague, Paris VI, Paris IX, Madrid, Granada, Waseda (Tokyo).
He has been plenary speaker at numerous international congresses, and is a member of the editorial board of 15 international journals, the Scientific Committee of the INDAM (1995-99) and the IAN of Pavia (1992-2001). He is the author of more than 110 articles and 4 books.
He is considered one of the world's leading experts in non linear Mathematical Analysis. His research activity is primarily in the theory of bifurcation, the calculus of variations, Hamiltonian systems, elliptic equations and non-linear Schroedinger equations.

Alberto BRESSAN
He is a Distinguished Professor at Penn State University, and was born in Venice on June 15, 1956.  He took his laurea in mathematics at the University of Padova in 1978.   
He has worked at the University of Colorado at Boulder and SISSA (Trieste, Italy). In 2002 he gave a plenary conference at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Peking. 
In 2006 he won the Feltrinelli Prize for Mathematics, Mechanics and applications.  
He is a member of the editorial board of 14 international journals, and is the author of more than 110 articles. 
His primary research interests are in the area of ordinary differential equations and differential inclusions, the theory of non-linear controls, blow-ups for non-linear partial differential equations, as well as the theory of non-linear hyperbolic systems with particular reference to conservation laws.

François LOESER
François Loeser is currently Professor of mathematics at Ecole Normale Supérieure (from 2000) where he is in charge of the Equipe "Groupes et Géometrie". He was born on August 25, 1958.
He has been appointed Distinguished Ordway Visiting Professor 2006 at University of Minnesota, Minneapolis. In 2005 he was one of the main lecturer at the AMS Summer Institute in Algebraic Geometry that takes place every ten years. He has been main editor for the journal Astérisque from 1993 to 2000. At the present he is among the editors of three international journals and of the Rendiconti del Seminario Matematico di Padova. He is author of 43 articles and editor of 2 books.
He is mostly known for his work on Motivic Integration (partly in collaboration with Jan Denef). His mathematical spectrum includes Singularities and Algebraic Geometry (Hodge Theory, D-modules, exponential sums, L functions, and Motives) and more recently Model Theory.

Claus Michael RINGEL
Professor at the University of Bielefeld, born on February 10, 1945, Ph.D. degree in 1969 at the University of Frankfurt am Main, he completed his Habilitation in 1972 at the University of Tübingen.
He is a member of the editorial board of 2 international journals, is the author of more than 140 articles and three books, and has edited various proceedings volumes for international mathematics conferences. He has been a visiting professor at many Universities, including Beijing Normal University, University of Science and Technology Hefei (China), UNAM Mexico, Carleton University at Ottawa, Brandeis University at Waltham, Universities of Antwerp, Leeds and Trondheim. He got an honorary Ph.D. from the University of Trondheim in 2004, and was selected as "Highly cited Researcher" by ISI.
He is one of the founding fathers of the modern theory of representation of algebras, which he has continued to follow step by step and to which he has made fundamental contributions, starting from a pioneering article that appeared in the Symposia Mathematica of 1979 which was presented at a conference of the Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica organized in Rome by A. Orsatti. He is a dedicated and enthusiastic popularizer of algebraic and mathematical themes of various types by way of the conferences that he gives throughout the world and his publications dedicated to secondary schools.
