A sequence of tournaments is said to be quasirandom if it behaves as a sequence of random tournaments would. In 1991, Chung, Graham, and Wilson provided a list of equivalent properties that any sequence of random tournaments satisfies with high...
A set { a 1 , a 2 , … , a m } of distinct positive integers is a Diophantine m -tuple if the product of any two distinct elements in the set is one less than a square. In this talk, I will discuss some recent results related to Diophantine tuples and...
Varieties that fail to have rational points despite having local points for each prime are said to fail the Hasse principle. A systematic tool accounting for these failures uses the Brauer group to define an obstruction set known as the Brauer-Manin...
We are in the midst of an exciting revolution in quantum science and technology, comparable in ways to the first one that occurred about 100 years ago. One of the most tantalizing and potentially disruptive innovations to emerge from this second...
Conifold transitions are a mechanism in which a Calabi-Yau 3-fold is deformed into another by contracting curves and smoothing out the resulting conical singularities. Reid's Fantasy conjectures that all Calabi-Yau 3-folds can be linked by a sequence...
This talk will first provide a (non-exhaustive) survey of explicit results on zero-free regions and zero densities of the Riemann zeta function and their relationship to error terms in the prime number theorem. This will be extended to Dirichlet L...
PIMS is thrilled to announce the Dr. Christos Thrampoulidis, Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UBC, has been awarded the 2024 PIMS/UBC Mathematical...
