Functional Analysis

 

3Tree

 

The functional analysis research program is a fundamental-research level investigation of the mathematics underlying the time evolution of complex systems. The program tackles this investigation both from a topological standpoint through topological groups and dynamical systems, and also from the point of view of calculus through differential geometry and differential equations theory.

Key IMIA members in this program include

  • A/Prof David Pask
  • Prof Jacqui Ramagge
  • A/Prof Peter Nickolas
  • A/Prof Aidan Sims
  • Dr James McCoy
  • Dr Nathan Brownlowe
