September 20 - December 17, 2027

Description: Numerical methods for partial differential equations play a central role in modern scientific computing. While classical finite element methods remain widely used, handling complex geometries, coupled systems, and nonlinear phenomena often poses challenges for ensuring accuracy, robustness, and preserving intrinsic physical properties. This Trimester Program aims to bring together experts working on the design of innovative numerical schemes, their rigorous mathematical foundations, and the accurate simulation of real-world systems.
The program begins with a comprehensive one-week introductory school for PhD students and postdocs, offering a unified overview of the three main themes. It then features three thematic workshops, each focusing on one of the core areas: the design and analysis of nonstandard Galerkin methods, continuous and discrete functional analysis tools for such methods, and advanced discretizations for problems in geophysics, engineering, and the life sciences. The scientific program is complemented by a series of weekly seminars and mini-courses led by participants.
The call for participation will open in mid-August.

Global Mobility Fellowships
Our Global Mobility Fellowships offer fully-funded and fully-organized visits to the Trimester Programs of the Hausdorff Research Institute for Mathematics and participation spots for the Special Topic Schools of the Hausdorff School for Mathematics for selected researchers and PhD students from countries of the Global South. With this program we aim to reduce economic and practical barriers to participation in some of the core initiatives of HCM and to welcome researchers from around the world to our programs and events!

5 minute walk from Bonn central train station to HIM
Leave the station through the back exit into the street called Quantiusstrasse. Cross at the zebra crossing and turn left. Walk to the corner: the cross-street is the Poppelsdorfer Allee. Cross (careful of traffic from your left) and walk to the right up the Poppelsdorfer Allee, towards the Poppelsdorfer Castle in the distance. At the next intersection, continue straight on up the avenue. HIM is building No. 45 on the left side of Poppelsdorfer Allee behind the wrought iron gate.
The airport shuttle drops you in front of the central train station. Cross at the traffic light nearest you and take the escalator down to the underground passage. Go straight to the end of the passageway until you reach the street (Quantiusstrasse) and follow the directions above.
Please come to the Administration Office at Poppelsdorfer Allee 45 for an in-person check-in on the first working day of your stay.
If you are coming for a week-long event, such as a Workshop or School, please also register via the sign-in list.
