This interdisciplinary project develops and binds the research areas attracting growing interest of prominent mathematicians during the last 30 years because of not only its theoretical value, but also its ties with the key equations describing a multitude of physical phenomena and the theoretical foundation of numerical methods. The Euler, Helmholtz, Lamb, Navier-Stokes and acoustic equations, studied in terms of function spaces, govern incompressible viscous fluid flows and wave propagations. Contributing to both pure mathematics and, particularly, Short-Term Tsunami Prediction, the project will enhance Australia's research reputation.Read moreRead less
Computational Schemes for Initial-Boundary Value Problems. Many physical phenomena can be modelled as initial-boundary value problems described by partial differential equations. Simulations of such models require efficient and robust computational algorithms. The main aim of this project is to propose numerical algorithms for two dimensional spatial problems and three dimensional time-space models. A major focus of the project is to investigate methods that require about half the computation ....Computational Schemes for Initial-Boundary Value Problems.

The Spectral Theory and Harmonic Analysis of Geometric Differential Operators. The project will involve mathematical research of the highest international standard in two very active and far-reaching field of mathematics: quantum chaos, and harmonic analysis. Progress in these fields will have implications in areas such as communications technology (e.g. image compression), quantum theory, and mathematical analysis (e.g. partial differential equations).
Boundedness of Singular integral operators and applications to Bochner-Riesz summability, Riesz transforms, and Hardy spaces. We aim to develop harmonic analysis methods to study singular integral operators and function spaces associated to these operators. We propose to study the long standing problem of convergence of Bochner-Riesz means in Fourier analysis, and investigate differential operators with non-smooth coefficients acting on rough domains, or acting on general spaces like manifolds. ....Boundedness of Singular integral operators and applications to Bochner-Riesz summability, Riesz transforms, and Hardy spaces.
