Description:
------------

This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, investigates
Shape Optimization problems for which symmetry-breaking is believed to
occur: the energy functional is radially symmetric and yet its
minimizer fails to enjoy full symmetry. 

The workshop is organized by
Dorin Bucur, Almut Burchard, Richard Laugesen, and Antoine Henrot.

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 January 31, 2024. Applications are open to all, and
we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities,
junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily
undergraduate institutions to apply.

The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused
workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM
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.
