The reconfiguration of one discrete structure into another one, through a sequence small local modifications, is a wide research area. Famous topics of study range from games like the Rubik's cube or the 15-puzzle via robot motion planning to...

For two multiplicatively independent positive integers p and q, Furstenberg (2019) conjectured that the transformations px mod 1 and qx mod1 are transverse. This means that the Hausdorff dimension of the intersection of two closed invariant sets is...

Latent Dirichlet Allocation and Text embeddings have revolutionized the use of text as data leading to vastly improved document clustering and retrieval and recommender systems by finding lower dimensional structure in the text. Furthermore, these...

ELMACON is an annual math contest for students in grades 5, 6, and 7. Students tackle hard mathematical questions in an competitive environment to determine who will take home trophies and prizes. The contest is designed to be challenging but fun. It...

PIMS is proud to support Science Rendezvous at UBC, a free community event celebrating science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Science Rendezvous is Canada’s national celebration of STEM, bringing together tens of thousands of people...
