In 2016, M.B. Erdoğan and I co-organized this Workshop on Nonlinear Dispersive PDE.

A beautiful book on dispersive differential equations authored by my collaborators and good friends Burak and Nikos. Highly recommended reading if you are interested in the topic as a student or a curious mathematician. Published by Cambridge University Press as a part of London Mathematical Society Student Texts series in 2016. See also Nikos's lecture notes from different summer schools on dispersive partial differential equations; nonlinear Schrödinger, KdV equations.
