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 excellence-cluster Simulation Technology (SimTech) at the University of Stuttgart and with the SFB 1173 "Wave phenomena: analysis and numerics  at the KIT Karlsruhe.
