Please join us for a celebration of women in math where we will eat pizza and learn about well-known, and lesser-known, female mathematicians throughout history. An opportunity will be provided for all participants to share stories. We hope you can...

Speaker Abstract : Let X be a Calabi-Yau variety of dimension d. We will confine ourselves to Calabi-Yauvarieties of small dimensions, e.g., d 3. Dimension one Calabi–Yaus are elliptic curves, those of dimension two are K3 surfaces, and dimension...

In the latter decades of the 20th Century, string theory and in particular mirror symmetry paved the way for new interactions between algebraic geometry and high-energy physics. Techniques and ideas related to moduli spaces of curves, enumerative...

We are pleased to announce Flows on the Saskatchewan: A Workshop on Integrability and Inverse Problems. This 3-day workshop will be held in celebration of the 65th birthday of Jacek Szmigielski, Professor of Mathematics at the University of...

This 4-day workshop, set at the border of grassland and forest in the Canadian Prairies, will foster interactions between established and junior researchers working on the large-scale geometry and physics of moduli spaces arising from gauge theory...

Elastic effects on the hydrodynamic instability of inviscid parallel shear flows are investigated through a linear stability analysis. We focus on the upper convected Maxwell model in the limit of infinite Weissenberg and Reynolds numbers...

Abstract Bosonic many-body models are an important class of mathematical models that are used to study gases of bosonic particles at very low temperatures. I will introduce (i) the physical systems, (ii) one way Physicists formulate the models in...

Abstract The Mayer expansion is a power series expansion that has a central place in statistical mechanics. It is also full of combinatorial miracles that relate it to graphs, forests and branched polymers. I will discuss the background, the results...

Abstract The cohesive movement of a biological population is a commonly observed natural phenomenon. With the advent of platforms of unmanned vehicles, such phenomena have attracted a renewed interest from the engineering community. This talk will...

AbstractIn a pioneering paper V. Arnold presented a general framework within which it is possible to employ geometric and Lie theoretic techniques to study a variety of equations of interest in mathematical physics. I will describe how to extend his...
