Mathematics: 

This conference is the second major event in the Mathematical 
Sciences Institute 2013 Special Year on Nonlinear Partial 
Differential Equations. The aim of the meeting is to bring 
together Australian and international researchers in geometric 
aspects of nonlinear PDE with particular emphasis on: geometric 
flows and their applications; affine, conformal,complex and 
convex geometric structures as well as problems arising from 
Lie group invariances.

------------------------------------------------------

Conference structure: 

The meeting will have the structure of an Oberwolfach or 
Banff Workshop. February 9 will be the arrival date with 
a welcoming function in the evening. Lectures will take 
place from the morning of Monday, February 10 until lunch 
time on Friday, February 14, with a hike in the Murramarang 
National Park tentatively scheduled for the afternoon of 
Wednesday, February 12, followed by the conference dinner 
in the evening.
