New Frontiers in Homogenization and Fractional Calculus (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783032200976)

Alberto Maione is a María de Maeztu Postdoctoral Fellow at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM) in Barcelona, where he works in the Analysis & PDEs research group. He obtained his PhD in 2020 from the University of Trento and the University of Verona, with a thesis on Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations entitled "Variational Convergences for Functionals and Differential Operators Depending on Vector Fields". In 2023, the thesis was recognized as the third best in applied analysis by the University of Padua. His research focuses on variational convergences, a powerful tool in analysis for approximating models in physics, engineering, and material science. Since 2022, he has taught these methods at leading universities in Germany and Spain. He has co-authored several peer-reviewed publications, including an in-depth study of sub-Riemannian geometry and fractional operators. In addition to his research, Dr. Maione has been invited to present his work at several international conferences. He has also been actively involved in organizing international scientific events in Italy, Germany and Spain and is currently leading an international research-in-pairs project, focusing on homogenization and fractional calculus.

Joaquim Duran i Lamiel is a María de Maeztu Doctoral Fellow at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM) in Barcelona, where he works in the PDEs research group. In 2023, he graduated in physics and mathematics from the University of Barcelona, obtaining the August Palanques Award for the best academic record in the Mathematics degree. His research focuses on the spectral analysis of relativistic models arising in quantum mechanics.
