This text corresponds to a graduate mathematics course taught at Carnegie Mellon University in the spring of 1999. Included are comments added to the lecture notes, a bibliography containing 23 items, and brief biographical information for all scientists mentioned in the text, thus showing that the creation of scientific knowledge is an international enterprise.

An Introduction to Navier-Stokes Equation and Oceanography

After publishing an introduction to the Navier–Stokes equation and oceanography (Vol. 1 of this series), Luc Tartar follows with another set of lecture notes based on a graduate course in two parts, as indicated by the title. A draft has been available on the internet for a few years. The author has now revised and polished it into a text accessible to a larger audience.

Homogenization is not about periodicity, or Gamma-convergence, but about understanding which effective equations to use at macroscopic level, knowing which partial differential equations govern mesoscopic levels, without using probabilities (which destroy physical reality); instead, one uses various topologies of weak type, the G-convergence of Sergio Spagnolo, the H-convergence of François Murat and the author, and some responsible for the appearance of nonlocal effects, which many theories in continuum mechanics or physics guessed wrongly. For a better understanding of 20th century science, new mathematical tools must be introduced, like the author’s H-measures, variants by Patrick Gérard, and others yet to be discovered.

A Personalized Introduction

The General Theory of Homogenization

Avez-vous déjà essayé de deviner la vie des gens rien qu'en les regardant ? Pour Mademoiselle J'affabule, c'est facile. Chaque matin elle prend le train de banlieue et s'invente des histoires.

Mademoiselle J'affabule et les chasseurs de rêves

Qui n'a jamais rêvé de tout quitter? Josépha dirige une auberge. C'est une femme seule qui a vu jadis partir son mari, disparu lors d'une ascension de l'Everest, puis son fils, sur les traces de son père. Comment vivre l'absence? Comment vivre le retour?

Dans le cadre de la célébration de ses vingt-cinq ans d'activités, l'association Promotion Théâtre propose une opération d'envergure intitulée La scène aux ados. Pour ce faire, il fallait disposer de pièces originales ; une cinquantaine de dramaturges français ont relevé le défi. Le présent volume reprend 6 des textes choisis par le jury.
