UBC DG MP PDE Seminar: Gang Zhou
June 27, 2024
University of British Columbia
I will report the progress we made on the ETH approach for quantum measurements. Here E stands for Events, T stands for Trees and H for histories. I will start with presenting some basics of quantum mechanics, for example, the probabilistic nature of...

Fibration and Degeneration in Calabi-Yau Geometry Workshop
June 24–25, 2024
Harvard
Calabi-Yau manifolds occupy a central place in geometry. Their critical role as the cut-case between basic Fano building blocks and the zoo of General Type manifolds is key to the wide variety of important applications of Calabi-Yau geometry to...

Addressing New Modelling and Data Challenges Revealed by The COVID-19 Pandemic
June 24–29, 2024
University of Melbourne
The COVID pandemic and associated interventions revealed a large number of new challenges for mathematical modeling of infectious disease. This research program will focus on an important subset of these questions How can mathematical epidemiological...

The SFU Statistical Learning for Large Scale Data conference aims to promote the presentation and discussion on the latest progress in statistical learning for large-scale data. It empowers organizations and researchers to harness the vast amount of...
Scientific, Seminar
PIMS-CORDS SFU Operations Research Seminar: Yohan Song
June 20, 2024
Simon Fraser University
A skew shape is a difference of two Young diagrams where one diagram contains the other. In 2017, Jenna Rajchgot, Matthew Satriano, and Wanchun Shen showed that skew shapes can be used to study the Gerstenhaber problem, a matrix algebra problem in...
Scientific, Colloquia
UAlberta Special Colloquium: Mathieu Florence
June 19, 2024
University of Alberta
The Bloch-Kato-Milnor conjecture relates Galois cohomology to Milnor K-theory of fields. A celebrated proof of this result was furnished by Voevodsky. Motivic cohomology and Rost's norm varieties are key ingredients. They were tailored specifically...

UBC Math Department Colloquium: Neda Abasi
June 10, 2024
University of British Columbia
We study the family of one dimensional piecewise smooth dynamical systems in which two classic theorems are still permanent. One of them is Birkhoff Transitivity Theorem and the other one is Banks, Brooks, Cairns, Davis and Stacey Theorem. Baker like...
