The workshop will consist of several minicourses addressing a broad range of theoretical and practical issues arising in seismic imaging including the use of curvelets and other frames in seismic imaging, compressed sensing applied to seismic imaging...

The North American Pacific region is a center of strength in the growing field of computational neuroscience. In this inherently interdisciplinary field -- practiced by mathematicians, computer scientists and engineers as well as neuroscientists ---...

We will begin by giving an elementary introduction to the GL(2,R) action on the Hodge bundle (sometimes called Teichmuller dynamics), after which we will give a survey of some of new developments in this field. This will include restrictions on the...

Next year brings the 100th anniversary of Watson's classic paper "The diffraction of electric waves by the earth" and I would like to use this as a welcome excuse to review various results about scattering by spherical obstacles. Is the sphere...

The surprising encounter of three fields of research, namely non-Euclidean geometry, statistical physics and mathematical economy, and a reflection on the human drivers behind mathematical research.

Mathematical modeling is an effective resource for biologists-- it provides ways to simplify, study and understand the complex systems common in biology and biochemistry. Many mathematical tools can be applied to biologicalproblems, some traditional...

The 25th West Coast Operator Algebras Seminar will take place at Seattle University on October 6-7, 2018. The conference will start on Saturday morning and conclude Sunday afternoon. The West Coast Operator Algebras Seminar promotes the vitality of...

In the last few decades, the theory of optimal transportation has blossomed into a powerful tool for exploring applications both within and outside mathematics. Its impact is felt in such far ?ung areas as geometry, analysis, dynamics, partial...
