NCTS-PIMS workshop in PDE
June 11–15, 2024
National Taiwan University
This is a joint workshop between NCTS and PIMS, aimed at promoting research collaboration and fostering exchanges between Taiwan and Canada. We hope to continue this positive trend through this workshop and further enhance our collaboration. The...

UBC Math Department Colloquium: Neda Abasi
June 10, 2024
University of British Columbia
We study the family of one dimensional piecewise smooth dynamical systems in which two classic theorems are still permanent. One of them is Birkhoff Transitivity Theorem and the other one is Banks, Brooks, Cairns, Davis and Stacey Theorem. Baker like...

On the Interface of Geometric Measure Theory and Harmonic Analysis Workshop
June 9–14, 2024
Banff International Research Station (BIRS), Banff
The Banff International Research Station will host the “On the Interface of Geometric Measure Theory and Harmonic Analysis” workshop in Banff from June 9 - 14, 2024. With a history dating back to Leibniz, the modern study of fractals is of interest...

Optimization and Data Seminar: Amitabh Basu
June 3, 2024
University of Washington
We consider the problem of minimizing a convex function under convex constraints, where some or all of the decision variables are constrained to be integer, with access to first-order oracles for the objective function and separation oracles for the...

2024 CMS Summer Meeting Mini-Courses: Applied Topology: Persistent Homology
May 31, 2024
University of Saskatchewan
Persistent Homology is an application of algebraic topology (filtered chain complexes) to statistics. Roughly speaking, one naturally associates filtered chain complexes to data in a variety of ways. Persistent homology is the structure of how the...

2024 CMS Summer Meeting Mini-Courses: Applied Topology: DNA Topology
May 31, 2024
University of Saskatchewan
DNA topology is the study of the geometry (supercoiling) and topology (knotting and linking) of DNA. Knots and links in DNA are known to obstruct normal cellular processes and geometric factors such as the amount of writhe or supercoiling are known...
Scientific, Seminar
UW Combinatorics and Geometry Seminar: Fiona Young
May 29, 2024
University of Washington
One way to define an integer polymatroid ρ is via its independent set polytope, whose faces are parallel translations of the independent set polytopes of the minors of ρ. To better understand the interior of this polytope, we endow a structure on...

UBC DG MP PDE Seminar: Gang Tian
May 28, 2024
University of British Columbia
In this talk, I will discuss a long-standing problem on type II singularity of Ricc flow. First I recall some known results on long-time behavior of Ricci flow, then I will present our solution to the above problem. I may also discuss a related...
