Welcome to Workshop MathESTIA 2007

The workshop MATHESTIA, to be organized at the engineering school ESTIA (April 25-26-27, 2007) is intended to favor exchanges between different domains of pure and applied Mathematics. This first meeting will be focused on the three following directions

• Complex and harmonic analysis and operator theory
• Meshless methods
• Signal and image processing

Our choice of these themes is based on the know-how of several laboratories in Aquitaine and of their national and international partners. In particular, this workshop is a continuation of the research on complex and harmonic analysis and operator theory organized at the French national level through the GDR 2101 (2000-2003) and the GDR 2753 (which started in 2004), funded by CNRS, and at European level through the Marie Curie Research Training networks "Analysis and Operators" (2000-2004) and "Harp" (2002-2006), funded by the European Commission. It is also one of a series of international meetings of researchers from applied mathematics, engineering and mechanics devoted to "meshless methods," which are are needed in situations where the usual finite elements method fails (such a meeting was organized at ESTIA in October 2005). It is organized by the IMB (Institut de Mathematiques de Bordeaux) and the LAPS (Laboratoire d'Automatique, Productique et théorie du Signal) of Université Bordeaux 1, by the LIPSI (Laboratoire des Procédés et Services Industriels), of the Engineering School ESTIA at Bidart, by the group Magique 3-D (INRIA/UPPA) and the LMA (Laboratoire de Mathématiques Appliquées), from Université de Pau et des Pays de l'Adour, by the GDR CNRS 2753, and by the Department of Mathematics at Bilbao of the Universidad del Pays Vasco.

We will emphasize applications of complex and harmonic analysis and operator theory to control theory and signal and image processing; meshless methods; and, more generally, questions related to engineering. We expect to start building synergies and long term pluridisciplinary collaborations between researchers in classical mathematical analysis and researchers working on meshless methods. This workshop will also provide an opportunity to discuss the possibility of future research proposals (Community of the Pyrénées, national research agencies, Marie Curie programs).

At the end of the workshop a strategic discussion on the theme "Mathematics and Industry" will be organized at a round table involving academic researchers and representatives of the financial and industrial worlds.
