MTNS
MTNS, the International Symposium on the
Mathematical Theory of Networks and Systems is a
major conference in the general area of
mathematical systems theory. The symposium is
interdisciplinary and attracts mathematicians,
engineers and researchers working in all aspects
of systems theory. The symposium is organized
every two years and traditionally covers areas
involving a wide range of research directions in
mathematical systems, networks and control
theory. Mathematical methods which play a role in
the areas mentioned above stem from a broad
range of fields of pure and applied mathematics,
including ordinary and partial differential
equations, real and complex analysis, numerical
analysis, probability theory and stochastic
analysis, operator theory, linear and commutative
algebra as well as algebraic and differential
geometry. There are a wide range of
applications ranging from problems in biology,
communications and mathematical finance to
problems in chemical engineering, aerospace
engineering and robotics
