Session Abstract

This minisymposium is focused on recent advances in the analysis of and modeling by free boundary problems. A particular emphasis lies on the discussion of important applications from the sciences. The minisymposium aims to bring together a diverse group of researchers, new and established, to discuss topics covering a broad range of mathematical questions and state-of-the-art techniques. These include, but are not limited to, weak and strong solution theories, the rigorous derivation of free boundary limits, and qualitative properties of solutions.
