About:
The central aim of this workshop was to bring together four different research communities to understanding quasicrystals (QCs) and aperiodic order: QCs in materials science, QCs in soft matter, QCs in partial differential equations and QCs in aperiodic tilings. Moreover, the workshop capitalised on recent progress by giving researchers a forum to discuss how different approaches can be most effectively combined to tackle and solve the big open problems in the field.
Further objectives and Speakers
-
Share current state of knowledge from the communities working in different but related fields
-
Share open problems and discuss what approaches might be transferable to attack these
-
Initiate joint projects between participants
-
Convene a subgroup of participants to prepare a joint survey article (or a collection of articles) presenting the state of the art
-
Discuss and plan potential public engagement activities
-
Discuss and plan further workshops and meetings to build on outcome of the workshop
-
Discuss funding opportunities for joint research projects.
