In this talk, I will outline the basic ideas in Langlands’ Beyond Endoscopy proposal, and the role of summation formulas and the nontempered automorphic spectrum. I will discuss the various approaches of Frenkel-Langlands-Ngô, Altug, and Ngô to the...

The four-week industry fellowships, which are being run in partnership with Cybera, bring together six companies wanting to leverage data science, and 22 newly trained data scientists in Edmonton and Calgary. The companies have presented a challenge...

When you send your credit card number over the Internet, cryptography helps to ensure that no one can steal the number in transit. Julius Caesar and Mary Queen of Scots used cryptography to send secret messages, in the latter case with ill-fated...

This meeting serves many purposes. It allows faculty and graduate students working in probability and statistics at different universities in Alberta to interact, make contacts, and discuss their research. It serves as a training vehicle for highly...

A one-day workshop on Using R with Professor John Braun from the University of British Columbia (Okanagan), is the latest in the increasingly popular and high-quality series of workshops offered by the University of Calgary Biostatistics Centre (UCBC...

One of the most important techniques provided by modern logic is the use of models to show the consistency of theories. The technique burst onto the scene in the late 19th century, and had its most important early instance in demonstrating the...

Any tangent category has a notion of connection for its differential bundles (the analog of vector bundles). In this talk, we’ll explore what this definition gives us in the tangent category of affine schemes. The talk will be roughly divided into...

Principal bundles arise in different areas of matematics with different definitions. However, they all have in common some kind of local triviality. Here I will present some work in progress on generalizing these in terms of join restriction...

In this project, we discuss some fine properties and the existence of variational solutions to the Total Variation Flow. Instead of the classical Euclidean setting, we intend to work mostly in the general setting of metric measure spaces. During the...

In the preface of its Lectures on Noncommutative Geometry [Gin05], Ginzburg writes: “Each of the mathematical worlds that we study is governed by an appropriate operad. Commutative geometry is governed by the operad of commutative (associative)...
