CONFERENCE
Théorie spectrales des nouveaux matériaux
18 au 22 avril 2016

Un progrès remarquable réalisé récemment dans la production de nouveaux matériaux a soulevé des questions mathématiques importantes. Le but de l’atelier proposé est de relever ces défis. Nous prévoyons de porter à des mathématiciens de différentes origines avec des physiciens pour examiner les nouvelles orientations ainsi potentiels dans ce domaine, en mettant l’accent sur les nano-matériaux (comme les nanotubes de carbone, graphène, graphynes, etc.), métamatériaux (y compris les cristaux photoniques et l’invisibilité « cloaking ») et isolants topologiques.
