SUMMARY:New challenges for Dirac operators
DESCRIPTION:General Event Overview		\\nEvent Title: New challenges for Dirac operators\\nDate: 1 – 5 June 2026\\nLocation: Universidad Carlos III de Madrid\, Spain\\nSponsoring/Organizing Entity: COST Action CA24122 (multiscale Stochastics\, Patterns\, and Analysis of Combinatorial Environments — mSPACE)\\nOfficial Website: Dirac 2026 Madrid\\n			Workshop Description and Objectives		This five-day international workshop provided a highly collaborative forum for discussing recent advancements and emerging trajectories in the analysis and spectral theory of Dirac-type operators.\\nThe primary goal was to foster an exchange of ideas and current challenges among global experts and early-career researchers sharing common interests in mathematical physics.\\nThe scientific scope of the conference aligned with the core research pillars of the mSPACE COST Action\, focusing on:\\n\\nSpectral properties of Dirac operators\, including non-self-adjoint problems.\\nBoundary value problems\, transmission shell interactions\, and asymptotic analysis.\\nThe intricate interplay between geometry and spectral theory via Faber-Krahn inequalities.\\nConcrete applications in relativistic Quantum Mechanics\, solid-state Physics\, graphene\, and nonlinear dynamics.\\n			Participation and Leadership of COST Action Members		The event demonstrated robust integration with the mSPACE network\, drawing significant leadership from Action members who served across organizing committees\, chaired scientific sessions\, and delivered core presentations.			Committees &amp\; Organization		The scientific integrity and logistical success of the workshop were steered directly by mSPACE members:\\n\\nOrganizing Committee: Borbala Gerhat (Institute of Science and Technology Austria)\\nScientific Committee: Lucrezia Cossetti (Universidad del País Vasco)\, David Krejcirík (Czech Technical University in Prague)\, and Petr Siegl (Graz University of Technology).\\n			Sessions Chaired by Action Members		mSPACE members actively structured the scientific discourse by serving as session chairs throughout the week:\\n\\nVincent Bruneau chaired the Thursday morning session on spectral enclosures and expansions.\\nAlbert Mas chaired the final Friday session\, overseeing the poster award lectures and concluding talks\\n			Invited Lectures by Action Members		Several COST Action members delivered core invited lectures\, driving the primary scientific contributions of the event:\\n\\nThomas Ourmières-Bonafos (Aix-Marseille Université\, I2M ): “Spectrum of the Dirac operator in thin waveguides”\\nVincent Bruneau (Université de Bordeaux\, IMB): “A Poincaré-Steklov map for Dirac operators”\\nAlbert Mas (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya): “Spectral inequalities for quantum dot Dirac operators”\\nKonstantin Pankrashkin (University of Oldenburg): “MIT bag operator in non-smooth convex domains”\\nWilliam Borrelli (Politecnico di Milano): “Dirac solitons in one-dimensional cubic NLS”\\n			Summary of Main Activities and Scientific Highlights		The conference program featured a balanced mix of 11 invited talks\, 10 contributed talks\, an interactive poster session\, and an active open problem forum\, as outlined in the official web page and the book of abstracts.			Scientific Programme Overview																															Special Research Sessions and Outcomes					Open Problem Session		An essential highlight of the workshop designed to map out future network-driven research was the Open Problem Session held on Thursday afternoon. This session provided an active platform for participants to pitch unresolved questions to the audience\, fostering spontaneous debate. COST Action members were pivotal in anchoring this session: Albert Mas and Thomas Ourmières-Bonafos presented critical open problems alongside the early career researcher Eric Trébuchon.			Poster Session and Young Researcher Awards		To support the COST priority of empowering Young Researchers and Innovators (YRIs)\, a dedicated Poster Session showcasing 8 specialized projects was held on Tuesday. The session concluded with a community vote for the best scientific posters. Reflecting the high standard of mentorship within the network’s ecosystem\, the two top-awarded researchers were granted oral communication slots on the final morning of the conference
