Subject: Blaze 2.2 Released

After a total of five and a half months and unfortunately a little
late for SC'14 we finally release version 2.2 of the Blaze C++ math
library! But the waiting time was worthwhile!  This release comes with
hundreds of improvements and several bug fixes, many based on hints,
suggestions and ideas of the Blaze community. Thank you very much for
your support and help to make the Blaze library even better!

The big new feature of Blaze 2.2 is symmetric matrices. And this is
not just any implementation of symmetric matrices, but one of the most
complete and powerful implementations available. For instance, the
Blaze architecture enables symmetric matrices to actively help to
improve the performance of user code by restructuring mathematical
expressions. Get an impression of how symmetric matrices work and how
they can help to improve performance in the Blaze tutorial:

http://code.google.com/p/blaze-lib/wiki/Symmetric_Matrices

Blaze 2.2 is now available for download at
http://code.google.com/p/blaze-lib.

Subject: Nano-archimedes 1.0.0 released

nano-archimedes 1.0.0 has been released, please check it out!

http://www.nano-archimedes.com/download.php

nano-archimedes is a time-dependent simulator for the simulation of
quantum systems. It can simulate single- and many-body quantum
problems (DFT and ab-initio).

This first release implements the one-dimensional, ballistic,
time-dependent Wigner Monte Carlo method based on signed particles and
simulates a wave-packet going towards a potential barrier.

The code is released under GPL and it is a GNU package. The user is,
thus, free to use, modify and share the code with other users.

Instructions on how to extend this code to two-dimensional and
three-dimensional geometries are provided along with explanations on
how to simulate many-body quantum problems and include phonon
scattering.

Subject: New Book, Mathematical Cardiac Electrophysiology

Mathematical Cardiac Electrophysiology,
by P. Colli Franzone, L. F. Pavarino, S. Scacchi,
Springer MSA vol. 13, 2014

http://www.springer.com/mathematics/computational+science+%26+engineering/book/
978-3-319-04800-0

This book covers the main mathematical and numerical models in
computational electrocardiology, ranging from microscopic membrane
models of cardiac ionic channels to macroscopic bidomain, monodomain,
eikonal models and cardiac source representations. These advanced
multiscale and nonlinear models describe the cardiac bioelectrical
activity from the cell level to the body surface and are employed in
both the direct and inverse problems of electrocardiology. The book
also covers advanced numerical techniques needed to efficiently carry
out large-scale cardiac simulations, including time and space
discretizations, decoupling and operator splitting techniques,
parallel finite element solvers. These techniques are employed in 3D
cardiac simulations illustrating the excitation mechanisms, the
anisotropic effects on excitation and repolarization wavefronts, the
morphology of electrograms in normal and pathological tissue and some
reentry phenomena. The overall aim of the book is to present
rigorously the mathematical and numerical foundations of computational
electrocardiology, illustrating the current research developments in
this fast-growing field lying at the intersection of mathematical
physiology, bioengineering and computational biomedicine. This book is
addressed to graduate student and researchers in the field of applied
mathematics, scientific computing, bioengineering, electrophysiology
and cardiology.

Subject: Comp Aspects of the Langlands Program, USA, Sep-Dec 2015

ICERM Semester Program on "Computational Aspects of the Langlands
Program" (September 9, 2015 - December 4, 2015)
http://icerm.brown.edu/sp-f15/

In the late 1960s, Robert Langlands discovered a unifying principle in
number theory providing a vast generalization of class field theory to
include nonabelian extensions of number fields. This principle gives
rise to a web of conjectures called the Langlands program which
continues to guide research in number theory to the present day. For
example, an important first instance of the Langlands program is the
modularity theorem for elliptic curves over the rational numbers, an
essential ingredient in the proof of Fermat's last theorem.

Despite its many successes, the Langlands program remains vague in
many of its predictions, due in part to an absence of data to guide a
precise formulation away from a few special cases. In this thematic
program, we will experiment with and articulate refined conjectures
relating arithmetic-geometric objects to automorphic forms, improve
the computational infrastructure underpinning the Langlands program,
and assemble additional supporting data. Such data has proven valuable
for researchers in number theory, and it will continue to be made
available at the L-Functions and Modular Forms Database.

During the semester we will focus on three specific aspects of the
Langlands program.  First, we will look at elliptic curves over number
fields and genus 2 curves over the rationals and will consider their
relationship to modular forms. Second, we will consider computational
aspects of modular forms in higher rank. Specifically, we will examine
K3 surfaces and their connections to modular forms on orthogonal
groups. Our third topic concerns analytic aspects of L-functions,
building upon and complementing the algebraic, arithmetic, and
geometric data.

Subject: Modular Forms and Curves of Low Genus, USA, Sep-Oct 2015

Modular Forms and Curves of Low Genus: Computational Aspects (September 28 - 
October 3, 2015)
http://icerm.brown.edu/sp-f15-w1/

One of the crowning achievements of number theory in the 20th century
is the construction of the modularity correspondence between elliptic
curves with rational coefficients and modular forms of weight 2. The
consequences of this result resound throughout number theory; for
instance, it enables the resolution of certain problems of diophantine
equations (e.g., Fermat's last theorem) as well as the systematic
tabulation of elliptic curves, which in turn provides the basis for
many new conjectures and results.

The aim of this workshop is to lay the groundwork for extending this
correspondence to curves of small genus over number fields. The
general framework for this correspondence is predicted by the
Langlands program, but much remains to be made explicit. We will
explore theoretical, algorithmic, computational, and experimental
questions on both sides of the correspondence, with an eye towards
tabulation of numerical data and formulation of precise conjectures.

Subject: Computational Aspects of L-functions, USA, Nov 2015

Computational Aspects of L-functions (November 9-13, 2015)
http://icerm.brown.edu/sp-f15-w3/

This conference will revolve around several themes: the computational
complexity of L- functions; statistical problems concerning
L-functions, such as the distribution of their values, and zeros,
moments of L-functions, statistics and size of ranks in families of
elliptic curves; practical implementations of algorithms and their
applications to testing various conjectures about L-functions;
rigorous and certifiable computations of L- functions. One goal is to
stimulate dialogue between theoreticians and computationally minded
researchers regarding problems to which computation might provide
insight or important confirmation of conjectures. In the other
direction, we hope that discussions will lead to new ideas concerning
algorithms for L-functions.
