PIMS CRG Seminar Series: L-functions in Analytic Number Theory: Junxian Li
September 22, 2022
Hybrid
It is believed that distinct primitive L-functions are “statistically independent”. The independence can be interpreted in many different ways. We are interested in the joint value distributions and their applications in moments and extreme values...

Patterns are widespread in nature and often form during early development due to the self-organization of cells or other independent agents. One example are zebrafish (Danio rerio): wild-type zebrafish have regular black and gold stripes, while...

In this talk, I will introduce two ecological models with intraguild predation. I will first focus on developing a novel mathematical model that couples a competition model with an intraguild predation model via dispersal of intraguild prey driven by...

URegina Topology Seminar: Sebastian Martensen

University of Regina
Triangulated categories were introduced to capture some of the extra structure present in the derived category of a ring and the stable homotopy category, and today they are present wherever homological algebra plays a central role. In the case of...

Simon Fraser University
Numerical simulations of physical or chemical processes in heterogeneous media require a resolution of the heterogeneous structure. If, however, this heterogeneity is microscopically small while the object under consideration is large, a dimensional...

University of British Columbia
Given a subshift, there exist certain words that can always be replaced by other words (possibly of different size). In this talk I will show how the measure of maximal entropy of these two words are related by an inequality. Furthermore I will...

2022 PIMS Open House: Meet the Directors
September 15, 2022
Online
PIMS is pleased to invite our extended network to our second annual open house on September 15, 2022 at 1:00pm. This is an opportunity to hear from our Directors about our future direction and institute goals. They will also review current PIMS...

UBC PDE + Probability seminar: Soumik Pal

University of British Columbia
It is well-known that hydrodynamical limits of large particle systems with mean-field interactions are given by McKean-Vlasov equations where a particle evolves by an SDE whose parameters are functions of its law that itself satisfies a PDE such as...

We consider L-functions L 1, . . . , L k from the Selberg class having polynomial Euler product and satisfying Selberg’s orthonormality condition. We show that on every vertical line s = σ+it in the complex plane with σ ∈ (1/2, 1), these L-functions...
