1. Introduction & Purposes

The purpose of the summer school is to introduce graduate students to fundamental results on the kinetic theory and the fluid dynamics, with special emphasis on (1) the relation between kinetic theory and fluid dynamics; (2) the dispersive water wave; (3) the transonic flows. These topics have long research history. In this summer school, the speakers will give comprehensive accounts on the aforementioned topics and introduce some interesting open problems.
