Analysis
Analysis is one of the fundamental branches of mathematics, with powerful applications throughout mathematics as well as in the natural sciences and industry. Here at Virginia Tech we have faculty working on various topics within analysis or using the tools of analysis to study applications. Areas covered include dynamical systems, erogdic theory, geometry, harmonic analysis, mathematical physics and partial differential equations.
In the picture above, professor Malabika Pramanik (Univrsity of Brittish Columbia) gives a talk at the Mid-Atlantic Analysis Meeting (2018) hosted by Virginia Tech.
