No registration fee is required.

We present a bibliography on moving and free boundary problems for the heat-diffusion equation, particularly regarding the Stefan and related problems. It contains 5869 titles referring to 588 scientific Journals, 122 books, 88 symposia (having at least 3 contributions on the subject), 30 collections, 59 thesis and 247 technical reports. It tries to give a comprehensive account of the western existing mathematical-physical-engineering literature on this research field.

The scientific colloquium of CTU organized by the Department of Mathematics, FNSPE CTU in Prague and by the Mathematical Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences is devoted to the meeting of applied mathematicians dealing with theory and numerical solution of partial differential equations, mathematical modelling and numerical simulation of problems in technology, environment, biology and computer science. The meeting is being prepared as a satellite workshop of the international conference EQUADIFF 11 held in Bratislava.

The 2005 EMS Lecturer is Professor Nina Uraltseva (head of Mathematical Physics in St. Petersburg State University, St. Petersburg, Russia). She visits Portugal to give a series of lectures on Regularity of free boundaries in parabolic obstacle problems. The lectures will take place in

• University of Coimbra, Department of Mathematics, June 10-11, 2005.
• University of Lisbon, CMAF/Complexo Interdisciplinar, June 14, 2005.

FBP2005 is the 10th Conference on Free Boundary Problems of the series started in 1981 in Italy and it continues to be an important catalyst for the identification and development of this interdisciplinary mathematical field. It will take place between the 7th and the 12th of June, in the University of Coimbra, Portugal. The programme and the abstracts of the conference, as well as other relevant information are available in the web page http://www.fbp-2005.org.

The Centre for Mathematics of the University of Coimbra (CMUC)
accepts applications for one-year postdoctoral positions in
all areas of Mathematics. CMUC has been recently classified as
a research unit of excellence by an international funding panel.

An international Conference on Free Boundary Problems and Nonlinear
PDE in honor of Willi Alt's 60th birthday will be held in Bonn, Germany
from October 21st -23rd 2005. For details see
http://www.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~wwwaa/alt/

The next European Mathematical Society Lecture will be held the 10-11 June 2005 at FBP2005, University of Coimbra, and the 14 June 2005 at the University of Lisbon, Portugal, under the title
REGULARITY of FREE BOUNDARIES in PARABOLIC OBSTACLE TYPE PROBLEMS

The FBP2005 conference on Free Boundary Problems: Theory and Applications, that will take place in June 7-12, 2005, in Coimbra, has the list of Invited Speakers and Focus Sessions/Organizers already on the URL: http://www.fbp-2005.org

Registrations are open and the Organizing Committee encourages the proposal of Discussion Sessions and Contribution Talks as indicated on the conference web page.

An international workshop on Level Set Methods for Direct and Inverse Problems will be held in Linz, Austria from September 14 to 16, 2005.

This workshop is organized by the Special Research Area SFB F013 "Numerical and Symbolic Scientific Computing" at the Johannes Kepler University, and the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics. The topics of the workshop are computational and theoretical aspects of level set methods and related techniques for geometric problems, and their applications to direct (geometric motion and moving boundary problems) and inverse problems (shape reconstruction and shape optimization).
