Past Events

The minisemester will include two intensive workshops: 1. Tutorial Lectures and an Interdisciplinary Conference on Mathematical Aspects of Crystal Growth July 26 - July 30, 2010 For applications in materials science, we need improved models and...

Mini-courses The Radon transform and the X-Ray Transform ( Gunther Uhlmann, Peter Kuchment). This course will describe in detail the essential properties of these transforms including inversion formulas. The X-ray transform is one of the basic...

The 2010 Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) Summer School in Probability will be held at the University of Washington and Microsoft Research from June 21 to July 10, 2010. The school will be devoted to training doctoral students...

Summer School The summer school will be a mix of theoretical and practical courses, which will be taught by ten world experts in the field. It will be organized in modules (2×3 hours of lectures) over 5 days. The range of topics that will be covered...

The Summer School will feature three 10-Lecture Series: 1. The structure of nuclear C*-algebras (Brown and Toms) 2. KK-theory and the Baum-Connes conjecture (Emerson and Meyer) 3. C*-dynamical systems (Laca and Neshveyev)

GRADUATE COURSE 1 Instructor: Bruno Bouchard (University Paris-Dauphine) Title: Portfolio management under risk constraint. Course Material and Topics: The aim of this lecture is to discuss classical and recent techniques used for the hedging and...

In invasion percolation, the edges of a graph are assigned i.i.d. edge weights, and an infinite cluster is grown by recursively adding the boundary edge of minimal weight. By considering the edges whose weight is larger than all subsequently accepted...
