Symposium Abstract:
Describing and modeling nature is fascinating and, generally speaking, one of the most fundamental research activities: whether to model physical behaviors or geometric structures, to describe or to recognize natural shapes, every research community aims at representing nature as accurately as possible. Classical models are largely based on isotropic spaces. In nature however, anisotropy is the rule and different ways of measuring or geometrizing exist. In 2003 Gielis, introduced the so-called superformula which can be seen as a parametric formulation for generalized circles or ellipses. Since then, the Gielis formula, providing unification of natural and abstract shapes from elementary particles to space-time models, is spreading to different research areas. In this regard, the proposed symposium is meant to bring together researchers working on various applications of superformula in different fields of Applied Mathematics, Mathematical Physics, Electromagnetics, Fluid Dynamics, Nonlinear Physics, Numerical Analysis, Imaging, and related areas by providing a forum for the academic exchange of ideas, cooperation, and discussion of the latest achievements in the research.
