Martingales are perhaps best known as a gambling strategy of repeatedly doubling the stakes of a bet, in the hope that eventually a single win will cover previous losses and return a profit. In physics, though little known, martingales are also...

From June 12 to 16, 2023, the Mathematical Physics group in the Mathematisches Institut at Universität Heidelberg, will host a workshop on topics at the intersection of physics and pure mathematics, focused special emphasis on algebra, representation...

The Data Science Bootcamp is primarily intended for graduate-level students with a research interest in data science, although the Bootcamp will also appeal to senior undergraduate students who have an interest in pursuing academic studies in this...

Topological insulators are materials that exhibit unique physical properties due to their non-trivial topological order. One of the most notable consequences of this order is the presence of protected edge states as well as closure of bulk spectral...

A linear conic programming problem aims at minimizing a linear objective over the intersection of an affine set and a closed convex cone. The conic feasibility problems we study in this talk naturally arise from the optimality conditions of linear...

This is the registration page for CanaDAM. The ninth biennial Canadian Discrete and Algorithmic Mathematics conference (CanaDAM) will be held in downtown Winnipeg, jointly hosted by the University of Manitoba and the University of Winnipeg. more...

In the era of big data, we have access to massive information consisting of useful signals and a large proportion of noise. It is critical to make sense of big data. Statistics play a vital role, such as planning an efficient experiment to collect...

The classical notion of symmetry can be formalized by actions of groups. Quantum symmetry is a generalization of the notion of symmetry to the quantum setting, where symmetries can no longer be completely described by the actions of groups. In this...

We prove the agent’s choice will be a locally Lipschitz function of their type in the subclass of principal-agent problems considered by Figalli, Kim, and McCann (2011). Our approach is based on the construction of a suitable comparison potential...
