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...

We summarize the theory of Plancherel measures for real groups in a way which makes direct connections with L-functions through their gamma factors. These measures give a "first guess" as to how many L-functions there should be with certain numerical...

In number theory and diophantine geometry, the theory of "heights" is essential in studying finiteness questions. Roughly, they capture the "arithmetic complexity" of the object of study. We give a formula relating various notions of heights of...

The purpose of the workshop is to bring together CS Theory researchers (faculty, postdocs, graduate and senior undergraduate students) from PIMS universities (UBC, SFU, U Vic, UWashington) as well as some top researchers from North America and Europe...

The SIAM Pacific Northwest Section (PNWS) holds a meeting every two years; this upcoming meeting is the second such meeting, and one of the main events organized by the SIAM PNWS. It provides a valuable opportunity for mathematicians with connections...

Algebraic geometry is the study of geometric objects defined as the solution set of a system of polynomial equations p1,…,pr∈F[x1,…,xn] where F is an algebraically closed field. After recent spectacular progress in the classification of varieties...

I will discuss recent new developments in De Giorgi Conjecture for Allen-Cahn equation. In dimensions up to 10, we shall establish the C2,α estimates of level sets for stable solutions of Allen-Cahn. By applying reverse gluing method we show that the...

Northwest Probability Seminars are mini-conferences held at the University of Washington and organized in collaboration with the Oregon State University, the University of British Columbia and the University of Oregon. There is no registration fee...

In several imaging modalities the measured data can be interpreted as the modulus of the Fourier transform of a function describing the unknown object. To reconstruct this object one needs to “recover” the un-measured phase of the Fourier transform...

Many results in extremal graph theory can be formulated as inequalities on graph densities. While many inequalities are known,many more are conjectured. A standard tool to establish an inequality is to write the expression whose nonnegativity needs...
