Walter holds a CRC for Mathematical Analysis and its Applications at McMaster University, and was recently elected a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. Before moving to Canada he has been on the faculty of Caltech, Stanford University, and was...

Abstract:The root radius and root abscissa of a monic polynomial are respectively the maximum modulus and the maximum real part of its roots; both these functions are nonconvex and are non-Lipschitz near polynomials with multiple roots. We begin the...

Abstract: We will first present the algebras A(K) associated with a number field K which were introduced and analyzed in joint work with X.Li. The computation of their K-theory is a challenging problem. It turns out to be determined by the...

A one day seminar on Dispersive PDE's at UVic to discuss the up to date progress in the field as well as to enhance the collaboration with colleagues from France and UBC. The seminar will gather researchers with quite similar focus and will include...

This year computer scientists around the world will celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the birth of Alan Turing, which occurs on June 23, 2012. Alan Turing formulated the "Turing machine", the widely mathematical model of the computer; he has been...

Abstract As the discipline of functional neuroimaging grows there is an increasing interest in meta analysis of brain imaging studies. A typical neuroimaging meta analysis collects peak activation coordinates (foci) from several studies and...

Abstract: This talk will present a range of mathematical modelling approaches we have used recently to model aspects of solid tumour growth. We will consider a very simple ordinary differential equation model for homeostasis in intestinal crypts, a...
