20 years of Summer Schools on CalcVar in Rome, 13th-18th June 2022
Teaching activities
Starting from the academic year 2020/21 a new Master degree in Applied Mathematics will start (Laurea Magistrale in Matematica Applicata).
One of the programs proposed in this Master is devoted to Calculus of Variations (Curriculum di Matematica Applicata per le Scienze, MApS, Indirizzo Metodi Variazionali).
