The University of Aveiro, with the support of the projects ILLIANCE and NEXUS, and the Portuguese Mathematical Society (SPM), is pleased to organize DEOTIA26, to be held from 3–7 June 2026 in Aveiro, Portugal. We warmly invite you to participate. In an era driven by complex systems and data-intensive challenges, the synergy between differential equations, optimization techniques, and computational modeling plays a pivotal role in shaping scientific and technological progress. The conference DEOTIA26 serves as a premier forum for mathematicians, engineers, and interdisciplinary researchers to share novel insights, theoretical developments, and practical applications that bridge mathematics with real-world problem-solving. The event highlights the transformative power of analytical and numerical methods across diverse domains, emphasizing innovation, efficiency, and sustainability. We mainly consider three key thematic areas: Mathematical Foundations: This thematic area explores the theoretical aspects of differential equations, variational principles, and optimization theory. It focuses on analytical methods and the development of new mathematical theoretical directions. Computational and Numerical Methods: This thematic area centers on algorithmic approaches and computational strategies for solving complex differential and optimization problems. Topics include numerical simulation, machine learning-assisted optimization, and big data computational systems. Solutions and Interdisciplinary Applications: This thematic area focuses on applying mathematical tools to real-world scenarios in engineering, physics, biology, economics, and environmental sciences with special focus in Logistics and Manufacturing —demonstrating how mathematical modeling drives innovation and decision-making across disciplines.

The University of Aveiro, with the support of the projects ILLIANCE and NEXUS, and the Portuguese Mathematical Society (SPM), is pleased to organize DII26, to be held from 3–7 June 2026 in Aveiro, Portugal. We warmly invite you to participate. As industries evolve amidst rapid digital transformation, the convergence of theoretical rigor, artificial intelligence, and human-centered design is unlocking new frontiers in productivity, resilience, and innovation. The conference DII26 serves as a dynamic platform for researchers, practitioners, and technologists to explore the latest advancements in industrial systems and their socio-technical impact, implemented through data-driven approaches. We mainly consider three Industrial sectors: Primary Sector: This sector involves extracting and harvesting raw materials from the natural environment. Examples include agriculture, fishing, mining, and forestry. Secondary Sector: This sector focuses on manufacturing and construction, using raw materials from the primary sector to create finished goods. Examples include factories, construction sites, and refineries. Tertiary Sector: This sector provides services to support the production and distribution of goods, as well as to consumers. Examples include retail, logistics and transportation, and healthcare. The conference brings together a multidisciplinary community to present and discuss cutting-edge developments across some topics: New Data-driven Methods Machine Learning and General AI for Industrial Innovation Data Engineering and Infrastructure for Industry Decision Support and Automation Human-Centric Data-Driven Design Ethics, Policy, and Socio-technical Implications Cross-disciplinary Methods and Emerging Technologies Products for Logistics Products for Manufacturing Prototypes and Ongoing Work from Students

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis is a leading mathematical conference that takes place in rotation in one of the Baltic countries (Latvia, Lithuania, or Estonia). The conference brings together researchers and practitioners to present and discuss recent advances in mathematical modelling, numerical methods, and their applications in science, engineering, and industry. It covers a broad spectrum of topics ranging from applications of ODEs and PDEs to machine learning and data-driven approaches. The conference will be held in the resort city of Jūrmala, which is located approximately 20 minutes from Rīga. The conference venue is located in a picturesque corner of Jūrmala, one minute from the beach, offering a pleasant and inspiring setting.

The conference aims to bring together leading senior researchers and promising early‑career scholars working in elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. Key topics include regularity theory and its applications, free boundary problems, singularity formation and qualitative properties of solutions. A particular emphasis will be placed on fostering participation from young scholars in Eastern Europe, providing them with the opportunity to engage with cutting-edge developments in the area. The inaugural edition of the conference took place in Plovdiv, Bulgaria in 2024.

This is 5th International Conference on Dynamics of Differential Equations – in Memory of Jack K. Hale. The series was established through the joint effort of research groups in the dynamics of differential equations across the Americas, Asia, and Europe, with a scientific focus on the advancement and application of dynamical systems generated by differential equations and their discrete analogs. Previous meetings took place at Georgia Tech, Atlanta, USA (2013), CIRM, Luminy, France (2016), Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan (2018), and Fields Institute, Toronto, Canada (2023). Each conference in the series features a distinguished Hale Lecture, honoring the legacy of Prof. Jack K. Hale. Previous Hale Lectures were given by Geneviève Raugel (2013), Peter Poláčik (2016), Hiroshi Matano (2018), and John Mallet-Paret (2023). The 5th Hale lecture will be given by Rafael de la Llave (Georgia Tech, USA). Young researchers are strongly encouraged to participate and present a poster.

Date: May 20, 2026 (Wednesday) at 4PM (UK time) Speaker: Prof. Ben Green, University of Oxford, UK Topic: The polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture About the Talk: Prof. Ben Green is an internationally renowned mathematician whose work spans additive combinatorics, number theory, and related areas of analysis. He is widely known for groundbreaking contributions such as the Green–Tao theorem on arithmetic progressions in the primes, and has received numerous prestigious awards in recognition of his influence on modern mathematics. In this talk, he will discuss the polynomial Freiman–Ruzsa conjecture, outlining its background, key ideas, and recent resolution, as well as its role in shaping current research in additive combinatorics.

The conference aims to honor the scientific contributions of Nigel Kalton (1946–2010), whose work has profoundly influenced modern Functional Analysis and related fields. The event will gather researchers from around the world to present recent developments connected to Kalton’s ideas and to explore new directions inspired by his work. The program includes sessions on Kalton’s life and contributions, recent advances in his research areas, invited talks by internationally recognized specialists—including Peter Scholze, Gilles Godefroy, Gilles Lancien, and Grzegorz Plebanek—and opportunities for contributed talks and poster presentations.

The field of Analysis in Metric Spaces has experienced remarkable growth over the past three decades and now sits at the crossroads of potential theory, geometric measure theory, geometric function theory, and partial differential equations. Its influence extends to diverse areas such as dynamical systems, geometric group theory, and synthetic differential geometry. Our aim is to gather a vibrant and diverse community of leading experts and emerging researchers to share recent breakthroughs, explore new directions, and foster meaningful collaborations across disciplines.
