Chair for Analysis and Modeling

The research at our chair focuses on nonlinear partial differential equations, which play a fundamental role in the description of natural processes and are used to formulate almost all phenomena in theoretical physics.

• Research themes at our chair include:
• Models for the water wave problem
• Nonlinear optics models
• Universal behavior in pattern formation processes
• Instabilities of free surface problems
• Diffusive behavior
• Bifurcation theory in the case of discrete and continuous spectrum

Head of the research group is Prof. Dr. Guido Schneider.

The research group is affliated with the SFB 1173 "Wave phenomena: analysis and numerics  at the KIT Karlsruhe.
