Dr. Luca Fanelli and Dr. Renato Lucà are the principal investigators of the project “Spectral Theory and PDE: Real and Fourier Analysis” (Ec & Spec) of the Knowledge Generation Projects 2021 of the State Research Agency.
The project “Spectral Theory and PDE: Real and Fourier Analysis” (Ec & Spec) focuses on problems in Quantum Mechanics (especially related to the Schrödinger and Dirac equations) and magnetohydrodynamics that can be studied using fine harmonic analysis techniques. More specifically, the main objectives are the investigation of the spectral properties of relativistic Hamiltonians, the stability of breathing, oscillatory evolving soliton-like waves, and on the other hand, the point properties of the solutions of the PDEs of quantum and fluid mechanics, such as their convergence to the initial data and the persistence of the relevant topological structures. “The main goal is to bring the most sophisticated and recent mathematical techniques to the service of applications in these areas,” explains Dr. Luca Fanelli.
BCAM, presents the new project to promote mathematics applied to the challenges of today’s sport: MATH4SPORTS- Mathematical Modelling for the sports industry: health and performance. The project, which will last 2 years, will be carried out thanks to the funding granted by the Provincial Council of Bizkaia of more than €150,000 through the Technology Transfer Programme 2022 and is co-financed by the ERDF. The main objective of the project, is to “promote applied mathematical research into the challenges of today’s sport, with the main focus on the health and performance of sportsmen and sportswomen”.
Sinsin is an early career female researcher who is going to work along Dr Dae-Jin LeeCorine B. Laurenda Sinsin is an early female researcher from Benin Republic (Africa). After her undergraduate studies in agronomy and natural resources management (2013), she completed a Master of Sciences degree in climate change and education (2015); and later got her PhD in climate change, biodiversity, and ecosystem services (2021) at the University Felix Houphouët Boigny. Her PhD research work focused on the resilience of mangrove ecosystems to climate change in West Africa, considering the case study of Benin. In addition to several prestigious grants and awards, Laurenda has cumulated work and research experiences with the Laboratory of Applied Ecology (LEA), the Laboratory of Biomathematics and Forest estimations (LABEF) and the African German Network of Excellence in Science (AGNES).
“The motivation for joining WomenxAfrica came from my scientific and leadership career ambitions”, explains Laurenda Sinsin. “Joining WomenxAfrica has enlarged my network and will open ways for North-South collaborations for women’s empowerment”
BCAM-UPV/EHU and University of Bordeaux PhD Student Badreddine Benhellal has defended his co-supervised thesisBadreddine Benhelall has defended his co-supervised thesis Spectral analysis of Dirac operators on domains the last 6th of July. The main goal of the thesis is to investigate the spectral properties of two types of perturbation of the Dirac operator, which are singular from the point of view of scaling. Benhelall along with the supervision of Prof. Luis Vega, Basque Center for Applied Mathematics -BCAM – UPV/EHU and Prof. Vincent Bruneau of Mathematics of Bordeaux (IMB) – University of Bordeaux. Badreddine Benhelall graduated in 2016 with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from the University of Rouen. After he studied a Master’s in Analysis, PDEs and Probabilities in the University of Bordeaux. What was the most interesting part of your thesis? What was the most challenging one?
I think the most interesting part of my thesis was access to research funding and opportunities from BCAM-UPV/EHU and the University of Bordeaux. This access allowed for extended fieldwork visits and participation in conferences, workshops, and courses, which made it easier for me to meet colleagues and make connections with institutions that significantly strengthened my thinking and work. As for the difficult part, I would say that I had to readjust to a different rhythm of life for the research work on my dissertation and for daily life in general
