Abstract
Complex analysis is a vibrant research area—with manifold applications—in which computer experimentation has consistently proved to be a powerful and exciting mode of discovery. This program combines computational and experimental approaches in complex analysis, aiming to promote new synergies with the more theoretical facets of this rich research domain. It will include cutting-edge techniques within the field of computational complex analysis, software package tutorials and demonstrations to engage participants in the use and development of new software.
The program will connect to computational and experimental mathematics via a threefold approach: 1) A discussion of modern techniques within the field of computational complex analysis; 2) Software package tutorials and demonstrations; 3) The engagement of participants, particularly long-term visitors and junior researchers in the development and deployment of software packages. This approach will directly blend theory and computation.
Three Semester Program Workshops will involve participants beyond the long-term core. “Analytical Techniques and Applications” will focus on selected key themes from diverse application areas within mathematics, science and engineering. “Computational Complex Analysis” will cover recent progress on classical and emerging computational methods, and software tools. Finally, “Frontiers and Future Perspectives” will survey the broad landscape of research in applied and computational complex analysis, with a view to identifying and highlighting new developments in the field and scoping the potential for future ones. These short-term workshops will be complemented by an opening event and a range of collaborative activities organized throughout the Semester Program.

Application Information
ICERM welcomes applications from faculty, postdocs, graduate students, industry scientists, and other researchers who wish to participate. Some funding may be available for travel and lodging. Graduate students who apply must have their advisor submit a statement of support in order to be considered. In addition, graduate students will only be considered if they can remain in-residence for a minimum of six weeks.
ICERM Funding for Fellowships
ICERM has funding available for fellowships to support faculty who attend one of our semester programs. These are often used to cover teaching buyouts so that participants can be in residence throughout a semester program. We welcome requests from those not based at R1 research universities and those based at minority-serving institutions, including HBCUs, HSIs, TCUs, and AAPIs. The standard amount for a full semester is $30,000. Email ICERM’s Director for more information.
