Workshop Announcement: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Numerical Methods for Optimal Control in High Dimensions ---------------------------------------------------------------- August 29 to September 2, 2005 American Institute of Mathematics Research Conference Center Palo Alto, California http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/optimalcontrol.html ------------ Description: ------------ This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to problems of optimal control, broadly interpreted to include stochastic control problems and differential games. It is a standard practice to formulate these problems in terms of a multi-dimensional Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation. The workshop will focus on computational methods for tackling high dimensional HJB and related equations. The workshop is organized by Doron Levy, Ian Mitchell, and Adam Oberman. For more details please see the workshop announcement page: http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/optimalcontrol.html Space and funding is available for a few more participants. If you would like to participate, please apply by filling out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later than May 29, 2005. Applications are open to all, and we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities, junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily undergraduate institutions to apply. Before submitting an application, please read the ARCC policies concerning participation and financial support for participants. -------------------------------------- AIM Research Conference Center (ARCC): -------------------------------------- The AIM Research Conference Center (ARCC) hosts focused workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. ARCC focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an important new result, or investigating the convergence between two distinct areas of mathematics.
