The SIAM Pacific Northwest Section (PNWS) holds a meeting every two years; this upcoming meeting is the second such meeting, and one of the main events organized by the SIAM PNWS. It provides a valuable opportunity for mathematicians with connections...

The purpose of the workshop is to bring together CS Theory researchers (faculty, postdocs, graduate and senior undergraduate students) from PIMS universities (UBC, SFU, U Vic, UWashington) as well as some top researchers from North America and Europe...

In several imaging modalities the measured data can be interpreted as the modulus of the Fourier transform of a function describing the unknown object. To reconstruct this object one needs to “recover” the un-measured phase of the Fourier transform...

A connection is a geometric object that allows to parallel transport vectors along a curve in a domain. A natural question that often arises is whether one can recover a connection inside a domain from the knowledge of the parallel transport along a...

In recent years the field of complex analysis has evolved into various new areas, including random conformal maps, dynamical systems, geometric function theory broadly construed, and it has even seen applications to discrete networks. While all of...

In his 1983 research announcement “Some results in harmonic analysis in R^n, for n → ∞” (Bulletin of the AMS), E.M. Stein announced new results for several classical operators in harmonic analysis with operator norms that do not depend on the...

The surprising encounter of three fields of research, namely non-Euclidean geometry, statistical physics and mathematical economy, and a reflection on the human drivers behind mathematical research.

This is a one-day conference taking place on Saturday, March 31st on the campus of the University of Washington in Seattle. The topics of this event are enumerative and algebraic combinatorics. The conference will feature 4 invited talks as well 5...

In the last few decades, the theory of optimal transportation has blossomed into a powerful tool for exploring applications both within and outside mathematics. Its impact is felt in such far ?ung areas as geometry, analysis, dynamics, partial...

Mathematical modeling is an effective resource for biologists-- it provides ways to simplify, study and understand the complex systems common in biology and biochemistry. Many mathematical tools can be applied to biologicalproblems, some traditional...
