PDE, Modeling and Control

The network was created in 1999 by researchers from the Departments of Mathematics at University Joseph Ki-Zerbo (Burkina Faso), University of Gaston Berger (Senegal) and University of Nouakchott (Mauritania). The present members of the networks are researchers from the Departments of Mathematics at:

• University Joseph Ki-Zerbo (Burkina Faso)
• University of Gaston Berger (Senegal)
• University of Science, Techniques and Technology of Bamako (Mali)
• University Abdou Moumouni of Niamey (Niger)

The network is coordinated by Professor Hamidou Toure, University Joseph Ki-Zerbo.

In 2021 the network reported

• 7 PhD-graduation (all local students).
• 6 MSc-graduations.
• 46 publications in International scientific journals.

plus a number of contributions to conferences.

Objectives

The network aims to:

• Promote a sub-regional critical mass of active mathematics researchers, in the field of the PDE, Modelling and Control.
• Maintain good links with the international scientific community.
• Strengthen the doctoral programs in applied mathematics and to maintain a good management of young researchers.
• Maintain active scientists in the Sub-Saharan region, to overcome their isolation and to fight brain-drain.
