The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $130,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to the Regents of the University of Michigan, Office of Research and Sponsored Projects Division (doing business as the University of Michigan). This 3-year grant, effective June 1, 2024, aims to advance the mathematical understanding of "wave turbulence theory" and provide a rigorous derivation of the Boltzmann kinetic equation and fluid models from first principles. The project seeks to resolve Hilbert's Sixth Problem, a longstanding open challenge in the foundations of statistical mechanics, by deriving macroscopic laws from microscopic particle and wave dynamics. Research will focus on wave systems in various scientific domains, including quantum mechanics, oceanography, and climate science. The grant will also support graduate student training opportunities.
