An intensive one month program for Canadian and international students. The core of the program is a course which provides an elementary introduction to multiple zeta values and their applications in combinatorics, number theory and quantum field...

Between July 2-July 31, the IRMACS Centre will host the first SFU Academic Summer Camp for Aboriginal Students. The main goal of the camp is to help Aboriginal students currently in grades 8-11 to accelerate in mathematics and English. In addition...

Every year, during the last week of June, or the first week of July, SFU hosts a regional CMS-PIMS Math Camp for students from grades 8, 9 and 10. These camps are sponsored by grants from the Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) and from the Pacific...

Counting objects of arithmetic interest (such as quadratic forms, number fields, elliptic curves, curves of a given genus, ...) in order of increasing arithmetic complexity, is among the most fundamental enterprises in number theory, going back (at...

This Pan-American Advanced Study Institute consists of a summer school with two workshops. The summer school, which will have about 40 participants, covers a broad range of theoretical and applied areas of spatial and spatio-temporal statistics, with...

There will be two 4-week courses: Asaf Nachmias: Random walks on random fractals. Elchanan Mossel: Influences and noise stability in product space. as well as 3 short (3 lecture) courses: Alison Etheridge, Stochastic models of evolution (June 5-9)...

The String Math Summer School is aimed at advanced graduate students and postdocs interested in geometry related to physics. This summer school is intended to be a good preparation for attending the Math-Strings conference in Alberta in the following...

This year we're having a small-scale WCATSS, organized by and for grad students and postdocs. The theme is infinity categories, but the specific content of the course will be based on the interests and expertise of the participants. We will use this...
