11. Partial Differential Equations

Solvability, regularity and stability of linear and non-linear equations and systems. Qualitative properties (singularities, symmetry, asymptotics, long time behaviour). Spectral theory, scattering, inverse problems. Variational methods and calculus of variations. Homogenization and multiscale problems. Relations to continuous media and control.
