2024 Simons Collaboration on the Localization of Waves Annual Meeting
The 2024 Annual Meeting of the Simons Collaboration on Localization of Waves will bring together top mathematicians and physicists who work on understanding and manipulating the behavior of waves in disordered media or complex geometry, with a particular focus on localization phenomena.
The two-day meeting will feature presentations of recent advances in the mathematics, physics, and applications of localization. These include new results on the geometric structure of random waves, theoretical advances in Anderson localization, and groundbreaking experiments in systems of cold atoms.
The meeting will also be an opportunity for all participants to engage in open discussion, exchange ideas and make new connections.
Detailed information can be found on the Simons Foundation event page.
