Multidimensional Differential and Integral Calculus

Giorgio Riccardi is Associate Professor at the University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, Italy. His research activities concern applications of Complex Analysis to two-dimensional vortex dynamics, numerical and theoretical study of bubble dynamics, two-dimensional fluid-structure interaction handled by means of suitable conformal mappings and numerical simulation of relativistic flows.

Bruno Antonio Cifra is a teacher of Mathematics and Physics at the Ettore Majorana High School in Latina, Italy, and Professor of Geometry and Mathematical Analysis at Sapienza University of Rome. His scientific interests focused initially on operator algebras in the context of relativistic quantum field theory. Subsequently, exploiting his expertise as a musician, he worked on the mathematical coding of musical systems and supersystems, and he is currently involved in musical representations of mathematical models.

Enrico De Bernardis is Senior Research Scientist at the Institute of Marine Engineering - National Research Council of Italy. Starting with a main expertise in aerodynamic noise, his research interests have moved to the investigation of underwater noise from ship propulsion systems. In this field he is currently working on fundamental issues in bubble dynamics and cavitation.
