Singularity and regularity for Monge-Ampere type equations. The Monge-Ampere equation, as a premier nonlinear partial differential equation, arises in several areas including geometry, physics, and optimal transportation. Many important problems and applications are related to the regularity of solutions, which are obstructed by singularities. This project aims to classify the geometry of the singular sets, and to establish a comprehensive regularity theory for general Monge-Ampere type equation ....Singularity and regularity for Monge-Ampere type equations.

This project aims to develop novel methods for reliable and accurate statistical modelling with modern, complex correlated and error-prone data. The project expects to make significant strides towards future-proofing statistical data analysis, equipping practitioners with a suite of robust and computationally efficient methods which provide confidence in the stability and reproducibility of results obtained, while offering guarantees on their transferability over a range of populations. This will provide important benefits as they are applied in predicting endangered marine species for fisheries conservation, and in enhancing our national understanding of the relationship between education achievement and financial success.

New Frontiers in Large-Scale Polynomial Optimisation. Polynomial optimisation is ubiquitous in many areas of engineering and applied mathematics. The mathematical methods and algorithms used for polynomial problems of large size are not sufficiently developed, limiting their applicability for real-world problems.

Polynomial optimisation is ubiquitous in many areas of engineering and applied mathematics. The mathematical methods and algorithms used for polynomial problems of large size are not sufficiently developed, limiting their applicability for real-world problems. This project aims to develop a mathematical foundation and computational methods for large-scale polynomial optimisation. By using an innovative combination of a novel theory of algebraic geometry and convex optimisation, this project expects to generate new knowledge and tools for solving these problems. Anticipated outcomes include a new generation of large-scale optimisation technologies, providing significant benefit to Australia's industries and international research standing.

This project aims to develop a new biophysical model of the brain, founded on the recently discovered glymphatic system responsible for waste disposal during sleep. It sets out to formulate, analyse, and validate rigorous new multiscale quantitative modelling – to advance the study of sleep and brain clearance dynamics, at timescales from hours to decades. Among expected outcomes are powerful models ready for application at both population and individual level, and testable predictions concerning the sleep patterns that lead to aggregation of waste in the brain and eventual cognitive decline. Project outcomes should also benefit society and the economy though translation into interventions for sleep disturbance – in future applied research.Read moreRead less

Graded Symmetry in Algebra and Analysis. This project will study graded symmetries in mathematics by modelling them as groupoids and inverse semigroups. Groupoids have been at the centre of mathematical interest for a long time, but have gained special prominence in recent years as a focal point for algebra, analysis and dynamics. The majority of groupoids can be naturally graded.

This project will study graded symmetries in mathematics by modelling them as groupoids and inverse semigroups. Groupoids have been at the centre of mathematical interest for a long time, but have gained special prominence in recent years as a focal point for algebra, analysis and dynamics. The majority of groupoids can be naturally graded. The project introduces graded combinatorial invariants for groupoids (such as graded homology) and relates them to their Steinberg and C*-algebra counterparts (such as graded K-theory). The outcome is to give sought-after unified invariants bridging algebra and analysis, and to exhaust the class of groupoids for which these much richer invariants will furnish a complete classification.

A Functional Analysis of the Hypoelliptic Laplacian. Strike a bell, a sphere, or any geometrical object, and it rings. The frequencies of ringing are the mathematical spectrum, which encodes deep secrets about the shape of the object. The spectrum of the hypoelliptic laplacian is known to carry deep truths in mathematics and physics, but it remains difficult to understand. We propose a new analytic foundation, which will replace the so far non-analytical ad hoc approach, and make accessible many ....A Functional Analysis of the Hypoelliptic Laplacian.

The spectrum of the hypoelliptic laplacian is known to carry deep truths in mathematics and physics, but it remains difficult to understand. We propose a new analytic foundation, which will replace the so far non-analytical ad hoc approach, and make accessible many new results. It is key to better understanding differential equations which lie at the boundary between quantum mechanics and the classical world. This will pave the way for Australian leadership in a new century of differential equations and geometry, and training of young mathematicians.Read moreRead less
