This workshop is a two day meeting of the LMS Harmonic Analysis and PDE Network, and is open to all who are interested. The talks will take place in the Instituto de Ciencias Matemáticas (ICMAT), which is located in the campus de Cantoblanco of the UAM+CSIC . The network is coordinated by Jon Bennett, and the British participating universities are Birmingham, Edinburgh and Warwick.

A map of the UAM-CSIC campus can be found here in which the ICMAT (formarly known as the Instituto mixto de Matemáticas y Física Teórica as it is labelled on the map) is the furthest building from the train station (Estación Cercanias). It is a 1km walk, but essentially you just go staight from the train station. More information regarding how to arrive to the institute can be found here . In the CBM building (Severo Ochoa) nearby, there is a nice cafeteria (with blue seats outside). The lunches will take place there.

There will be an informal dinner in the city on the Friday evening at which all participants will be welcome. If you wish to attend, please contact Keith by email or tell one of us in person at the meeting before the end of the session on Thursday.

Speakers:

Joan Mateu (Universitat Autňnoma de Barcelona)

Pertti Mattila (Helsingin Yliopisto)

Joaquim Ortega-Cerdŕ (Universitat de Barcelona)

Michael Ruzhansky (Imperial College, London)

Luis Vega (Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea)

13:00 Lunch



Accommodation and arriving to the institute:

Participants are invited to make their own accommodation arrangements.

Hotel San Lorenzo (3 stars) is a hotel which is conveniently located near to Sol in the centre of Madrid. From there one can catch the "Cercanias"; the local trains that take you to the UAM. Trains to Alcobendas (Alcob-SSReye) or Colmenar pass through Cantoblanco where "the Autonoma" is located.

Four hotels which are conveniently located near to Atocha train station, are listed below. From Atocha one can also catch the Cercanias, and a train leaves from platform 5 or 6 every five minutes approximately. Here is a map of the Cercanias.

NH Sur (3 stars)

NH Nacional (4 stars)

Hotel Agumar (4 stars)

In the NH hotels, you can get 30 mins wi-fi free in the lobby (which can be repeated if you ask nicely), but it costs extra in your rooms. In the Hotel San Lorenzo there is free wi-fi access.

Between Sol and Atocha lies another good option:

Hotel TRYP Atocha (4 stars)
