Past Events

The IMA is holding a 10-day workshop on Mathematical Modeling in Industry. This event will take place at CIMAT in Guanajuato, Mexico. The workshop is designed to provide graduate students and qualified advanced undergraduates with first hand...

Victor Klee and Branko Grunbaum founded several branches of modern combinatorics and discrete geometry and spent their long careers (a total of 100 years between them) at the University of Washington in Seattle. Klee passed away in 2007 and Grunbaum...

The IMS Committee on New Researchers is organizing a meeting of recent or soon to be Ph.D. recipients in Statistics and Probability. This yearly conference provides a unique opportunity for new researchers to exchange research ideas and initiate...

The Actuarial Research Conference (ARC) is an annual event jointly sponsored by the Society of Actuaries and the host university. SFU has been chosen to host the 45th edition of the conference in 2010. It is the most important conference in North...

This workshop is a satellite event to the 10th Canadian Summer School on Quantum Information ( http://qi10.ca/QAMFworkshop/index.html ). This research workshop is an informal successor to two previous workshops, namely (1) Workshop "Graph Theory and...

A Galois descent theorem for n-types will be displayed and explained. This result is used, together with an appropriate version of the homotopy theory of pro objects, to give a descent criterion for diagrams of spaces which are defined on the etale...

The program consists of three mini-courses (4 hours each course) in the first week, followed by a workshop in the second week. Focuses will be on recent developments in geometric analysis. The topics will include: -Geometric flows: Ricci flow, Mean...

This summer school on quantum information marks the 10th anniversary of the highly renowned series. Previous events (2001-2009) were held in Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, and Waterloo. It follows the tradition of educating young researchers...
