It is well known that the prime numbers are equidistributed in arithmetic progression. Such a phenomenon is also observed more generally for a class of multiplicative functions. We derive some variants of such results and give an application to...

We introduce an efficient algorithm, called partition of unity extension or PUX, to construct an extension of desired regularity of a function given on a complex multiply connected domain in $2D$.Function extension plays a fundamental role in...

The mod $p$ Steenrod algebra is the (Hopf) algebra of stable operations on mod $p$ cohomology, and in part measures the subtle behavior of $p$-local homotopy theory (as opposed rational homotopy theory, which is much simpler). A classical theorem of...

B cells integrate signals from multiple activating and inhibitory receptors in a highly regulated spatiotemporal manner to regulate B cell receptor (BCR) signaling and B cell activation. Marginal Zone (MZ) B cells are unique subset of B cells that...

The Corradi-Hajnal Theorem gives a minimum-degree condition for the existence of a given number of vertex-disjoint cycles in a simple graph. We discuss a number of variations on the Corradi-Hajnal Theorem, changing both the nature of the necessary...

Solutions to the classical Weyl problem by Nirenberg and Pogorelov play fundamental role in the notion of quasi local masses and positive quasi local mass theorems in general relativity. An interesting question in differential geometry is whether one...

Talk details are available on the SFU DM site here.

In this talk we report on some research projects from summer 2017 supported by NSERC-USRA. In the first part of the project, we surveyed all existing explicit results from the past 60 years on prime counting functions, with a special focus on theta(x...

The Oregon Number Theory Seminar Series will held thrice-yearly (one meeting per year at each of the three Oregon universities (PSU, UOregon and OSU) with the hopes of bringing exceptional researchers to our somewhat-isolated location, and to foster...
