In recent years, it became evident that including uncertainty in pde-models may enhance their predictive power. Uncertainty may enter the equations in the form of random coefficients as well as in the form of random force terms, the latter giving rise to stochastic partial differential equations.

This spring school and its pre-course “Stochastic compactness and SPDEs”, given by Martina Hofmanova (University of Bielefeld), address researchers with a background in analysis or numerics of partial differential equations. It is designed for PhD-students, PostDocs, and scientists at the beginning of their career who are interested in

  • existence theory for nonlinear SPDEs with multiplicative noise,
  • numerical concepts to discretize SPDEs,
  • uncertainty quantification via multi-level Monte-Carlo methods or spectral methods based on polynomial chaos expansion.

Mini-courses and invited speakers:

  • Benjamin Gess (MPI Leipzig & University of Bielefeld)
    “Stochastic thin-film equations with Stratonovich noise”
  • Sebastian Krumscheid (RWTH Aachen)
    “Uncertainty quantification methods for PDEs with random input data”
  • Andreas Prohl (University of Tübingen)
    “Adaptive algorithms to numerically solve SPDEs”
