The classical McKay correspondence relates the geometry of Kleinian singularities to the representation theory of finite subgroups of SL(2,C). We will review the fascinating history. An intriguing application leads to an explicit classification of...

This is the 12th in a series of biennial meetings that have been held at various sites throughout Western Canada, beginning with an inaugural meeting at the University of Regina in 1993. WCLAM provides an opportunity for researchers and...

In 2003, Bose proposed the idea of using a network of interacting spins as a quantum wire to transfer information within a quantum computer. Associated with the network is a matrix M whose rows and columns are indexed by the spins, and whose entries...

This workshop is organized around some interrelated themes in algebraic and equivariant topology such as: torus-equivariant topology and GKM theory; K-theory of toric manifolds; (rational) homotopy theory of toric spaces; arrangements of hyperplanes...

Much of the fascination with arrangements of complex hyperplanes comes from the rich interplay between the combinatorics of the intersection lattice and the algebraic topology of the complement. A key bridge between the two is provided by the...

In this talk, we will discuss the theory of Vector and Banach lattices, as well as some recent developments. In particular, we will discuss order convergence and unbounded order convergence (uo-convergence). In many classical function spaces, uo...
