Introduction :

The Interplay Between Mathematics and Physics
Mathematical Physics is a vast area that represents the methods and techniques of mathematical sciences to solve physics related problems. The synergy between those two fields supports wide applications from foundational sciences to engineering to even biomedical implementations. For example, in information technology, the new computing paradigm behind quantum computers and the new security underlying quantum communications come from quantum physics. The implementation of GPS technology uses general relativity, which takes into account how the Earth's gravity distorts space and time. The quantification of the dynamics of human heart as a complex system can be based on various mathematical measures of complexity from progress made in nonlinear sciences.

During the past few years, several mathematical concepts and ideas as well as their physical implementations are investigated by outstanding scientists, covering the fields of Geometry, Functional Analysis, Operator Algebras, Condensed Matter Physics, Statistical Mechanics, Nonlinear Dynamics, Complex Systems, Fluid Dynamics, General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, String Theory, Quantum Probability, Cognitive Phenomenon, Cosmology etc.

This international seminar attempts to have a glimpse of these new developments from invited international and local speakers. The seminar will consists of several talks along with informal discussions among speakers and participants. This event aims to spur new ideas and interests among researchers in both physics and mathematics to help solve the increasingly difficult problems of the physical world.
