Jean-François Coulombel

I am a researcher in mathematics at the CNRS, and I work at the Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse (France). I used to work first at the Laboratoire Paul Painlevé in Lille and then at the Laboratoire de Mathématiques Jean Leray in Nantes. I also used to be a member of the team SIMPAF of INRIA Lille Nord Europe.

I have coordinated the ANR research project INTOCS and have been a participant of the project BoND. I am now coordinating the ANR research project NABUCO (see below for more information).

On my webpage, you can find my resume and download my publications.

I have stopped submitting my work to Elsevier and Springer journals. I have also stopped writing reports for these journals. I have (unfortunately) been unaware of these editorial issues for a long time. Some of my work has been published in Elsevier and Springer journals in the past. I have also written some reports for these journals. I can not rewrite the past, but starting from 2017 I have decided to stop participating in a system which I find is wrong. I might very well stop submitting my work and writing reports for other editors in the future.

The Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse is the home of the Annales de la Faculté des Sciences de Toulouse that is a completely free journal for authors and readers. I strongly encourage all colleagues to submit their work for publication in this journal and other diamond open access journals.

NABUCO is a research project granted by the French Agence Nationale de la Recherche for four years (Janaury 1st 2018 - June 30th 2022). The acronym stands for NumericAl BoUndaries and COupling. The main scientific objectives of the project deal with numerical boundary conditions and coupling problems for hyperbolic and dispersive PDEs. The project is a continuation of some aspects of the former ANR project BoND (standing for Boundaries, Numerics, Dispersion).

The first meeting of the ANR NABUCO has been held at the Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse on January 31st and February 1st 2018. A mini-course has been delivered by Jan Nordström (Linköping University, Sweden) on numerical boundary conditions for evolution equations. The program was complemented with several talks on topics related to the project.
