Pathways into Mathematics of SPDEs: A Workshop for Young Researchers
We are happy to announce the Junior Researcher Workshop on stochastic partial differential equations in applied mathematics. The workshop is a joint initiative by doctoral students from Karlsruhe's KCDS and Heidelberg's HGS MathComp and aims to provide young researchers with a smooth introduction to this challenging yet highly relevant topic.
Registration is now open and poster contributions are very welcome!
Abstract
Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) are a notoriously challenging topic in combining advanced theory of both partial differential equations and stochastic processes. However, it is due to this sophisticated combination of both concepts that they emerge as a powerful and versatile tool for modelling highly diverse phenomena in the sciences. While incredibly useful to describe these systems, utilising them jointly with data and measurements to accurately determine characteristics or provide reliable predictions is still a lot of work in progress in (applied) mathematics.
A central challenge, especially for junior researchers with an interest in the field, is that there is a major gap to overcome from available lecture materials, graduate courses and books to current problems and challenges in applied mathematics for SPDEs. We aim to support doctoral students in closing this gap, growing a network of junior researchers and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.

On December 4, 2025, KCDS members met at the Karlsruhe Christmas market. We had a nice (and reasonably cold) time! Thanks to KCDS Fellows Jasmin and Maxim for organizing the event, including a quite challenging Christmas market quiz. See you again in the new year!
