Past Events

Foundational Methods in Computer Science is an annual workshop that brings together researchers in theoretical computer science and mathematics. Past workshops have been held at BIRS, Colgate University, Dalhousie University, Mount Allison University...

The Conference on Random Matrix Theory and Numerical Linear Algebra will take place June 20-24, 2022 at the University of Washington in Seattle. The conference aims to bring together researchers from areas such as random matrix theory, numerical...

The common theme of this summer school is the mathematics of Monge-Kantorovich optimal transport (OT). The stunning mathematical development of OT has recently permeated into several fields of applications. Our speakers, chosen from the fields of...

For more information about this event, please see the conference website. This conference will bring together experts in various aspects of four-dimensional topology. Themes include diffeomorphism groups of four-manifolds, construction and detection...

Human behavior and social factors play important roles in the spread of infectious diseases, understanding the influence of them on the spread of diseases can be key to improving control efforts. In this talk I will introduce some recent studies on...

The workshop builds on the success of the previous Prairie Discrete Math Workshops, from the first one organized by Shaun Fallat and Brian Alspach and held at the University of Regina in Regina, Saskatchewan, in 2003. The intention is to gather...

In this talk, I will discuss: (1) the new BGG-type resolutions of finite dimensional representations of simple Lie algebras that lead to BGG-relations expressing finite-dimensional transfer matrices via infinite-dimensional ones, (2) the...

The 2022 PIMS-CRM summer school will be taking place at UBC from May 30 to June 24, after a 2 year delay from 2020. There will be two main courses, given by Frank den Hollander and Ivan Corwin, and mini-courses by Paul Bourgade, Jean-François Le Gall...

The tenth annual Canadian Statistics Student Conference (CSSC) will take place on Saturday, May 28th, 2022, the day before the Statistical Society of Canada 2022 Annual Meeting opens. Given the current ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its recent...

Unrolled quantum groups are a family of quantum algebras closely related to the non-restricted specialization of Drinfeld-Jimbo algebras at roots of unity. These quantum groups have played a pivotal role in the study of the Kazhdan-Lusztig...
