Research Group Applied Mathematics

Who are we?

The research group Applied Mathematics (or AM for short, Dutch: Toegepaste Wiskunde) is a sub-division of the department of Mathematics of the University of Antwerp, based at Campus Middelheim.

Research

The Applied Mathematics research team is committed to developing, analyzing and implementing numerical and mathematical methods and algorithms for large-scale simulations with applications in real-life scientific, financial and industrial problems. These methods allow the use of state-of-the-art mathematical models for realistic present-day problems with multiple variables in many dimensions and in their full complexity.

Our main focus lies on the study various types of multivariate and multi-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs), which are of key importance in mathematics and a broad variety of application areas.
