Conference Applications of Mathematics 2015

In honor of the birthday anniversaries of Ivo Babuška (90), Milan Práger (85), and Emil Vitásek (85)

Wednesday, 18 November 2015 to Saturday, 21 November 2015 in the main lecture hall of the Institute of Mathematics CAS

Professors Ivo Babuška, Milan Práger, and Emil Vitásek are renowned experts in numerical analysis and  computational methods. Their fruitful scientific careers started in Prague, in the Institute of Mathematics of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences (now Czech Academy of Sciences). They collaborated there on various projects including the computational analysis of the construction technology for the gravitational Orlík Dam on the Vltava River in Bohemia (1956-1959). In 1966 they published their joint book entitled Numerical Processes in Differential Equations, one of the first books concerned with round-off errors and numerical stability.
Ivo Babuška left Czechoslovakia in 1968 and works in the U.S.A.
It is an honor for the Institute of Mathematics to host a conference on the occasion of their birthdays.
