Past Events

In this talk, I will introduce group-invariant quantum latin squares and their connection to quantum isomorphisms. There will be some representation theory and finally, we will see a method of constructing Cayley graphs that are quantum isomorphic...

Pattison Food Group Ltd., encompassing Save-On-Food, Nester’s Market, and over a dozen other grocery brands, stands as a leading provider of food and health products in Western Canada. In this presentation, Benny Wai, Data & Analytics Manager at PFG...

After a brief introduction on the theory of p-adic groups complex representations, I will explain why tempered and generic Langlands parameters are open. I will further derive a number of consequences, in particular for the enhanced genericity...

The event will be a half-day event at SFU Harbour Center, featuring three speakers: Professor Giang Tran, U. Waterloo; Associate Professor Mirands Holmes-Cerfon, UBC; and Professor Jingwei Hu, U. Washington. There will also be a poster session...

In characteristic zero, the Hopf algebra of quasisymmetric functions QSym is isomorphic to the shuffle algebra of compositions Sh, and isomorphisms between them can be specified via shuffle bases of QSym. We give characterizations of shuffle bases...

Response optimization is a process of identifying the input variable settings that optimize the response. Multistratum design arises naturally in industrial experiments due to the inconvenient and impractical completely randomization. Accounting for...

In this talk, we examine a deterministic particle method for the aggregation- diffusion equation and the Landau equation. Particle method solutions are a linear combination of Dirac delta-functions located at certain points. The weights and locations...

For a successful analysis a suitable representation of data by objects amenable for statistical methods is fundamental. There has been an explosion of applications in which homological representations of data played a significant role. I will present...

Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) assays are a standard approach for quantifying kinetic parameters in antibody-antigen binding reactions. Classical SPR approaches ignore the bivalent structure of antibodies, and use simplified ODE models to estimate...
