Invited mini-course lecturers:
Michel Delfour, University of Montreal, Canada
Introduction to shape analysis and optimisation.

Workshop description
Shape optimisation theory makes an important and interesting discipline
of modern Mathematics. It deals with optimisation with respect to the
domain of shape functionals that often represent the energy associated
with any physical system. Usually, shape functionals depend on any boundary
value problem defined in a variable domain and on any geometric functional,
typically the perimeter and the measure. There are numerous applications
of shape optimisation theory in fluid dynamics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics,
imaging and in many other domains.
The workshop will be focused on an introductory to medium level and
will cover theoretical and numerical part of shape optimisation theory.
The theoretical part will focus on shape analysis, shape calculus,
existence and regularity of optimal shapes. The numerical part will
cover shape numerical methods like topological methods and standard
methods like shape gradient and Newton methods.
There will also be several presentations bringing different mathematical
shape problems and some interesting industrial problems formulated in
terms of shape optimisation theory.
