Centre International de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées

CIMPA-URUGUAY research school

Salto, March 9-20, 2015

The main objective of the school is to boost the regional activities in Hamiltonian and Lagrangian Dynamics, with focus on some new research trends. We expect it will contribute to increase the interaction between researchers and students from Argentina, Brasil, Chile, México and Uruguay.

On the other hand we also hope that the activity helps strengthen the constitution of the Department of Mathematics at North Regional of the public university of Uruguay. In the longterm, we expect that the activity result in an impact on the cultural development of the northern region of the country, which have been established academic careers related to agricultural production, leaving no option to the basic sciences to students from the region, currently many of which migrate to carry out their studies.
