Immune cells perform exquisite feats of collective organization, assembling into tissues that can shapeshift to meet functional demands. Dispersed, gas-like immune cells surveil tissues for threats; liquid-like germinal centers enable the rapid...

We consider isogenies on Jacobians J of genus 3 curves with a kernel that is a maximal isotropic subgroup of the 2-torsion J[2] and confront a phenomenon that is new in genus 3: for genus 1 and 2 the codomain is generally again a Jacobian of a curve...

I will give a (necessarily woefully incomplete) introduction to the measure classification paradigm in homogenous dynamics, and discuss one source of invariant measures and application of this paradigm: the Quantum Unique Ergodicity problem.

The inverse eigenvalue problem has played a central role in spectral graph theory in the last decade. In this talk, I shall be interested in a particular parameter, namely the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues of a graph G, i.e., in the minimum...

Classical Iwasawa theory studies the variation of arithmetic invariants, such as ideal class groups, along infinite towers of number field extensions. Over the years, these ideas have been extended to a wide range of arithmetic objects, including...

I will review the progress of large language models for mathematics over the last 3 years, from barely solving high school level mathematics to solving some minor open problems in convex optimization, combinatorics and probability theory. The...

Although we often introduce group theory to students using groups of symmetries, we tend to move quickly away from these intuitive representations into the realm of axioms and deductions. There are plenty of good reasons for this, not least of which...

Solving differential problems using full order models (FOMs), such as the finite element method, can results in prohibitive computational costs, particularly in real-time simulations and multi-query routines. Surrogate modeling aims to replace FOMs...

Note the location change! This event will take place at SFU ELMACON preparation sessions are free events which take place in the lead up to the ELMACON competition . At each session, an instructor students you through past ELMACON questions and...
