Partielle Differentialgleichungen bilden nicht nur den mathematischen Kern in einer Vielzahl von Modellen beispielsweise in Natur- und Ingenieurwissenschaften; ihr Verständnis ist auch verbunden mit vielfältigen Bezügen zu weiteren mathematischen Disziplinen wie etwa Funktionalanalysis oder auch Differentialgeometrie.
Der im Wintersemester 2020/21 startende Masterschwerpunkt soll nicht nur einen breit angelegten Überblick über Grundlagen in diesem Gebiet vermitteln, sondern darüber hinaus auch Vertiefungsmöglichkeiten in ausgewählten Teilbereichen bieten.
Mathematics in Paderborn
Mathematical research, from fundamentals to application, is the key to technical innovation. A high-calibre mathematical education forms the foundation for the development of future professionals. The Institute of Mathematics in Paderborn is characterised by a wide range of excellent research, from pure mathematics to industrial cooperation and research in mathematics didactics. In our range of courses, we offer top-level international training in mathematics and technomathematics as well as highly rated teacher training programmes for the entire range of school types.
Research
At the Institute of Mathematics, our research spans from fundamental mathematical studies to interdisciplinary collaboration. In the CRC TRR 358 project, Integral Structures in Geometry and Representation Theory, mathematicians from analysis and algebra work across traditional disciplinary boundaries. Additionally, our research focuses on stochastics, applied mathematics, and close partnerships with industry. We also place strong emphasis on mathematics education, integrating it into the Institute through collaborative research projects between mathematics education specialists and mathematicians.
