A classical problem in combinatorial geometry, posed by Erd\H{o}s in 1946, asks to determine the maximum number of unit segments in a set of $n$ points in the plane. Since then a great variety of extremal problems in finite point sets have been...

We investigate the sums of reciprocals to an arithmetic progression taken modulo one, that is sums of fractional parts 1/{na−y}, where a,y are real parameters. Such upper bounds are known in the literature, with many applications in number theory...

Roughly speaking, outbreaks of respiratory infections, such as measles, CoViD-19, and influenza, are shaped by two main factors: (1) the patterns and nature of contacts between individual hosts, and (2) the distribution of immunity locally and...

Please note, the instructor will not be available for the session session on December 8th, so it has been cancelled. Students of grades 5 to 7 are invited to challenge and develop their thinking and creativity skills at the Math Circle Workshops...

Schoen and Yau proved the positive mass theorem on asymptotically flat manifolds with non-negative scalar curvature. Since then, several quasilocal masses have been proposed to describe the energy of compact domains. On the other hand, Gromov asked...

In this talk, I will share my experiences working in data science related roles in Hong Kong and Canada. I will describe how I explored different career paths and possibilities during my studies, despite starting with a weak academic background in...

The microscopic theory of equilibrium phenomena is highly developed and rather exhaustive, while that of non-equilibrium phenomena still faces fundamental challenges and lacks a unitary formulation, although both the equilibrium and the non...
