2025 Applied Analysis Day

University of Ottawa, October 10, 2025


The Applied Analysis Day is an annual event co-organized by the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Ottawa and the School of Mathematics and Statistics at Carleton University since 2017. The eighth edition will be held at the University of Ottawa on Friday, October 10, 2025.

The main goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from Carleton University and the University of Ottawa working in applied analysis and related fields to exchange ideas and build community. It features two keynote talks, given this year by Prof. Lia Bronsard (McMaster University) and Prof. Jean-Philippe Lessard (McGill University), as well as a collection of short talks by students and professors from the Ottawa area and beyond.
