Data science is an interdisciplinary field that combines perspectives from mathematics, statistics and computer science. The focus is to extract and communicate meaningful information from complex data using techniques that fall under the umbrella of...

The aim of the PIMS Industrial Problem Solving Workshop is to create a mutually beneficial link between researchers in industry and academic mathematicians/statisticians. Research workers with industrial and commercial concerns are invited to present...

In the latter decades of the 20th Century, string theory and in particular mirror symmetry paved the way for new interactions between algebraic geometry and high-energy physics. Techniques and ideas related to moduli spaces of curves, enumerative...

This weekend conference will bring together algebraic geometers of Western Canada in order to build and strengthen collaborations, disseminate research, and contribute to the training of students and postdoctoral fellows. Talks will be given by 8...

The classification of phases of matter is a topic of much current interest. While descriptions of quantum mechanical systems often use discrete lattice models, one can typically approximate by continuous field theories. There is a well-developed...

The black hole is a prediction of Einstein’s theory of gravity. A black hole has at least two essential features, a singularity and an event horizon. Although the idea of a black hole has been widely accepted in the astronomical community, it is only...

Please join us for a celebration of women in math where we will eat pizza and learn about well-known, and lesser-known, female mathematicians throughout history. An opportunity will be provided for all participants to share stories. We hope you can...

Speaker Abstract : Let X be a Calabi-Yau variety of dimension d. We will confine ourselves to Calabi-Yauvarieties of small dimensions, e.g., d 3. Dimension one Calabi–Yaus are elliptic curves, those of dimension two are K3 surfaces, and dimension...

The surface growth of biological tissues is presently analyzed at the continuum scale of tissue elements, adopting the framework of the thermodynamics of surfaces and in line with Eshelbian mechanics. From a kinematic viewpoint, growth is assumed to...

Abstract The electrophysiology in a cardiac cell can be modelled as a system of ordinary differential equations. The efficient solution of these systems is important because they must be solved many times as sub-problems of tissue- or organ-level...
