The International School in Partial Differential Equations
will be held at Universidad de La Frontera located at the southern city of
Temuco.
This Summer School is aimed to graduate, advanced undergraduate and
young doctors interested in the area of Partial Differential Equations and its
applications.
During the period of the school, that goes from January 11 to 29 of 1999,
several of the most important researchers in the area will lecture on their
theme of research ranging from some basic topics to the most advanced ones.
The professors of the school will also
have time to discuss informally with students and other participants.

The intense green of unknown trees, exotic species with names like coigue,
mañío or araucaria,
water the colour of semiprecious stones, the air itself,
pure as spring water, make the south of Chile strangely atractive and
exciting as if our animal past were calling upon us to recover the
simplest part of ourselves.
These are regions of wild, almost untouched corners, where the traveller
can choose between amazement at the extraordinary natural beauty or turn
inwards, thinking and rethinking the role of the human being in the
natural world.
The Region of Araucania and Region of Lakes, usually referred to together
as the Lakes Region, stretch from Temuco through Valdivia and
Osorno to Puerto Montt, a distance by highway of 339 km. This also includes
the archipielago of Chiloe, just off the coast from Puerto Montt.
Temuco is the door to this wonderful region. Temuco in mapudungun,
the Mapuche languague, means
"Water of Temu", it is the capital of Region de la Araucania, the IX
Region,
It is located at 675 kms to the
south of Santiago city, arranged by the
Cautín river with its majestic hills Ñielol and Conun Huenu,
and the Llaima volcano.
This territory was discovered about 1552 by the Spanish Conquer
Pedro de Valvidia, who at that time founded the cities
Imperial, now Carahue. Valdivia had to face the
strong resistence of Mapuches that had lived in the region for centuries.
Temuco as a city, was founded on February 24, 1881 by Manuel Recabarren.
Its origin was the Quinchas Fortification, builded by the Spaniers
to stop the continuous attacks by indigenous.
Around the fortification some population gathered
producing a cultural mixture.
Temuco nowadays is one of the most important cities of the
country with Administrative Center, Shopings, Universities,
turism and culture, besides it constitutes the door to the south
of Chile.
Temuco has a population of 240.000. Close to Temuco there are several
centres for turism
like Pucón, Lican Ray and Puerto Saavedra.
