The grant funds the development of optimization methods for nonconvex structured optimization problems under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). This program aims to advance mathematical and physical sciences and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increasing...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded Oklahoma State University $249,856 on August 15, 2026, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to develop and validate mathematical models quantifying how species respond to habitat fragmentation. The research integrates mathematical modeling, controlled laboratory experiments, and long-term field observations to predict species responses to fragmented landscapes. The project develops a novel...
- Louisiana State University received a $198,664 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Mathematical Sciences on July 1, 2021 to support research activities through June 30, 2024. The award is being used to fund the "DIFFUSIVE REGULARIZATION IN KINETIC AND FLUID EQUATIONS" project under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). This program aims to promote progress in the mathematical and physical sciences to strengthen the Nation's...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded a $500,000 Project Grant to Arizona State University from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026. The grant is funded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, which aims to strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise and increase scientific knowledge. The project, titled "EMB: Mathematical Classification of Complexity in Population Dynamics", will generate biological and...
- Federal Project Grant Award Summary Louisiana State University received a $225,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Mathematical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), effective August 15, 2025, through July 31, 2028. This award supports fundamental research in feedback control theory for data-driven control systems that operate under time delays and partial state information.

The National Science Foundation Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded $180,000 to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette on September 1, 2026, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to develop novel mathematical models describing how population structure—including size structure and patch-age structure—enables competing species to coexist. The research team will create analytical and computational techniques to analyze these models and apply them to understand how niche differentiation mechanisms allow closely competing species to persist together in ecological communities, addressing a central challenge in theoretical and mathematical ecology. The award funds work at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette's Research Office in Lafayette, Louisiana, with a period of performance through August 31, 2029.
