Homogenization is a mathematical procedure to understand the multi-scale analysis of various phenomena modelled by partial differential equations (PDEs). It is a relatively new area and has tremendous applications in various branches of engineering sciences like material science, porous media, study of vibrations of thin structures, composite materials to name a few. Indeed, homogenization can be viewed as a process of understanding a heterogeneous media (where the heterogeneities are at the microscopic level like in composite materials) by a homogeneous media. Mathematically, homogenization deals with the study of asymptotic analysis of the solutions of PDEs by obtaining the equation satisfied by the limit. This limit equation will characterize the bulk or overall behaviour of the material, which does not consist of microscopic heterogeneities and can be solved or computed.Topics to be covered in the workshop include the following but not limited to:Multi-scale problems in application...

This discussion meeting, organized in celebration of the work of Indian gravitational-wave (GW) physicist Bala Iyer, will bring together researchers from various aspects of GW science and related areas. As GW observations are emerging as a powerful probe of the fundamental physics and astrophysics, this meeting will try to identity the future challenges and opportunities. The meeting will entirely consist of panel discussions with plenty of room for discussions and interactions. Participation is by invitation only.

With the advent of black hole imaging, we are now moving forward to black hole cinema. This workshop aims to collect the expertise across the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration to develop, implement and apply methods to access and interpret variability in M87 and Sgr A*. The goal is to lay the foundation for the first publications based on black hole movies.
