USaskatchewan Mathematics & Statistics Colloquium: Lauren DeDieu
How can we convince non-math majors that vector spaces are cool? How can we design activities that lead to heated debate and audible gasps in our calculus classrooms? When students are curious, they learn better. But helping students see value in an...

USaskatchewan Mathematics & Statistics Colloquium: John Baez
Mathematical models of human interactions are important and widely used in epidemiology and many other fields, but building and working with these models at scale is challenging. I will explain two software tools for doing this, both based on...

2024 CMS Summer Meeting Mini-Courses: Applied Topology: Persistent Homology
Persistent Homology is an application of algebraic topology (filtered chain complexes) to statistics. Roughly speaking, one naturally associates filtered chain complexes to data in a variety of ways. Persistent homology is the structure of how the...

2024 CMS Summer Meeting Mini-Courses: Applied Topology: DNA Topology
DNA topology is the study of the geometry (supercoiling) and topology (knotting and linking) of DNA. Knots and links in DNA are known to obstruct normal cellular processes and geometric factors such as the amount of writhe or supercoiling are known...

Math2PowerQuantum: Quantum Computing Summer School
The Math2Power Quantum summer school on quantum computing will be held across 2 days (May 29 and 30) in the lead up to the CMS Summer Meeting and is aimed at helping students in the mathematical sciences learn - through a combination of lectures and...
Scientific, Workshop
International Workshop on Hyperordered Structures and Quantum Materials
The International Workshop on Hyperordered Structures and Quantum Materials will be held for four days in western Canada in order to exchange ideas between researchers in the fields on both sides of the Pacific. The event will bring together...

USask PIMS Geometry and Physics (GAP) Seminar: Julius Grimminger
I will aim to give a pedagogical introduction to 3d Coulomb branches of quiver gauge theories, which are certain holomorphic symplectic varieties with symplectic singularities. After briefly explaining why I care about such spaces as a physicist, I...

USask PIMS Geometry and Physics (GAP) Seminar: Antoine Bourget
Over the past 5 years, the stratification of 3d Coulomb branches into symplectic leaves has been the subject of intense work in the physics community. Mathematically, this corresponds to understanding the nested singularity structure of conical...

USask PIMS Geometry and Physics (GAP) Seminar: Yuly Billig
AV-modules are representations of Lie algebra V of vector fields that admit a compatible action of the commutative algebra A of functions. This notion is a natural generalization of D-modules. In this talk we shall start by reviewing the theory of AV...

USask PIMS Geometry and Physics (GAP) Seminar: Casey Blacker
A symplectic Hamiltonian manifold consists of a Lie group action on a symplectic manifold, together with the additional structure of a moment map, which encodes the group action in terms of the assignment of Hamiltonian vector fields. In special...

USask PIMS Geometry and Physics (GAP) Seminar: Abid Ali
The question of integrality for semi-simple algebraic groups over the field of rational numbers was esablished by Chevalley in the 1950s as part of his work on associating affine group schemes with groups over integers. For infinite-dimensional Kac...
