PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: Cristian Rios
The “language" of mathematics has been developed since the dawn of humanity to describe and comprehend the surrounding world and its phenomena. Mathematics as a science and a school subject is widely identified with the mechanical rules of algebra or...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: Bin Han
A video of this event is available on mathtube.org. Wavelets have been successfully applied to many areas. For high-dimensional problems such as image/video processing, separable wavelets are widely used but are known to have some shortcomings such...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: Compressed Sensing: Theory, Applications and Extensions
A video of this event is available on mathtube.org. Many problems in science and engineering require the reconstruction of an object - an image or signal, for example - from a collection of measurements. Due to time, cost or other constraints, one is...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: How Can Parallelization Recover More Oil?
For large oil and gas heterogeneous fields, vast amounts of seismic, geologic and dynamic reservoir data yield high-resolution geological models. These models involve mega (million) to giga (billion) grid block cells. Recent advances in the...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: Oceans and Multiplicative Ergodic Theorems
In many physical processes, one is interested in mixing and obstructions to mixing: warm air currents mixing with cold air; pollutant dispersal etc. Analogous questions arise in pure mathematics in dynamical systems and Markov chains. In this talk, I...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: Numerics with error bars
Mathematical analysts are typically a careful sort. We sweat over the tiniest details to ensure proofs are rock-solid. The advent of fast and easy to use computers revolutionized science, engineering and some areas of mathematics. Oddly though, most...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: On Oscillations in Microvascular Networks
Sustained oscillations occur in complex networks in contexts as diverse as physiology, gene regulatory networks and neural networks. Despite intensive research effort, important questions remain about the sources of oscillations in large networks...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: Long Term Asset Allocation for the Patient Investor
Many studies have shown that the most important factor in investment success is asset allocation, as opposed to stock picking. At its most basic level, this amounts to the choice of how much to allocate to bonds and stocks.In this talk, I will...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: One Hundred Years of Helly's Theorem
The classical theorem of Edouard Helly (1913) is a masterpiece of geometry. In the simplest form it states that if a family $\Gamma$ of convex sets in $R^n$ has the property that every $n+1$ of the sets have a non-empty intersection, then all the...

PIMS/Shell Lunchbox Lecture: Dennis Gabor: The Father of Seismic Attribute Analysis
Dennis Gabor was a Hungarian/British physicist who invented holography, for which he received the 1971 Nobel Prize. However, in the world of seismic data analysis, he is best known for the Gabor transform, a special case of the short-time Fourier...
