USaskatchewan Mathematics & Statistics Colloquium: Lauren DeDieu
January 10, 2025
University of Saskatchewan
How can we convince non-math majors that vector spaces are cool? How can we design activities that lead to heated debate and audible gasps in our calculus classrooms? When students are curious, they learn better. But helping students see value in an...

UBC Math Department Colloquium: Jonathan Tidor
January 10, 2025
University of British Columbia
Many problems in discrete geometry can be conveniently encoded by a structure known as a semialgebraic graph. These problems include the Erdős unit distance problem and many of its variants, point-line incidence problems studied by Szemerédi–Trotter...

Joint Mathematics Meetings - CRM-PIMS-AARMS Invited Address - Wilfrid Gangbo
January 10, 2025
Seattle Convention Center
Motivated by parallels between mean eld games and random matrix theory, we develop stochastic optimal control problems and viscosity solutions to Hamilton-Jacobi equa- tions in the setting of non-commutative variables. Rather than real vectors, the...

Joint Mathematics Meetings - CRM-PIMS-AARMS Special Session on Optimal Transport - Theory and Applications
January 10–11, 2025
Seattle Convention Center
This special session is organized by the PIMS kantorovich Initiative (kantorovich.org) which is dedicated towards research in the mathematics of Monge-Kantorovich optimal transport and its numerous applications to multiple areas of mathematics...

UBC Discrete Math Seminar: Jonathan Tidor
January 9, 2025
University of British Columbia
The degeneracy of a graph is a measure of sparseness that gives important information about its Ramsey- and Turán-type properties. I will talk about the hypergraph extension of these problems. The typical notion of hypergraph degeneracy does not give...

SFU Number Theory and Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Romina M. Arroyo
January 9, 2025
Simon Fraser University
The question of which nilpotent Lie algebras admit complex structures is far from being understood. In recent decades, progress has primarily focused on providing algebraic obstructions to the existence of such structures, with classification results...

Joint Mathematics Meetings - CRM-PIMS-AARMS Special Session on Indigenous Voices in Mathematics
January 8–9, 2025
Seattle Convention Center
This session will highlight the research of Indigenous mathematicians and mathematics, showcasing the breadth and depth of their contributions across various mathematical disciplines. From theoretical research to practical applications and...

Kantorovich Initiative Seminar: Jia-Jie Zhu
December 16, 2024
University of British Columbia
Gradient flows have emerged as a powerful framework for analyzing machine learning and statistical inference algorithms. Motivated by several applications in statistical inference, generative models, generalization, and robustness of learning...

ELMACON 2025 Preparation Session 1
December 14, 2024
ESB 1013
As in previous years, we will be running three preparation sessions to help you keep your math skills sharp and get you ready for the competition. The first preparation session will take place on Saturday, December 14th from 10am-12pm in Earth...

Kantorovich Initiative Seminar: Yousef Mroueh
December 13, 2024
University of British Columbia
Current LLM alignment techniques use pairwise human preferences at a sample level, and as such, they do not imply an alignment on the distributional level. We propose in this paper Alignment via Optimal Transport (AOT), a novel method for...
