A skew shape is a difference of two Young diagrams where one diagram contains the other. In 2017, Jenna Rajchgot, Matthew Satriano, and Wanchun Shen showed that skew shapes can be used to study the Gerstenhaber problem, a matrix algebra problem in...

The Bloch-Kato-Milnor conjecture relates Galois cohomology to Milnor K-theory of fields. A celebrated proof of this result was furnished by Voevodsky. Motivic cohomology and Rost's norm varieties are key ingredients. They were tailored specifically...

The “Comparative Prime Number Theory” symposium is one of the highlight events organized by the PIMS-funded Collaborative Research Group (CRG) “ L-functions in Analytic Number Theory”. It is a one-week event taking place on the UBC campus in...

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...

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...

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...

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...

The 2024 Canadian Workshop on Information Theory (CWIT 2024) will take place at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, from June 2 - 5, 2024. This will be the 18th bi-annual Canadian Workshop on Information Theory. Similar to previous...

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...
