The conference is dedicated to Basil Nicolaenko to honor his role in the founding
of the CNLS and his many important contributions to nonlinear analysis.

The general theme of the conference will be mathematical and computational aspects of nonlinear evolution equations with a particular emphasis on the Boltzmann equation and nonlinear partial differential equations of fluid dynamics. During the last decade these have been areas of active research leading to significant advances and involving considerable analytical technology. Invited speakers will discuss emerging paradigms in nonlinear science from their own unique interdisciplinary perspectives.

The highlighted talks will be followed on Friday and Saturday by the annual Los Alamos/Arizona Days workshop in nonlinear science.  This informal conference is held every year in order to maintain regular contact between the Applied Math Programs at the University of Arizona, Arizona State University, the University of New Mexico, and the Center for Nonlinear Studies at Los Alamos National Laboratory, and to present highlights of current research at these institutions.

This event is an opportunity to exchange ideas, present new findings, and meet new people (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, professors, and technical staff members).

The last two days  of the conference will have talks presenting highlights of recent  research at the participating institutions.
