We establish rates of convergence of solutions to scaling (or similarity) profiles in a coagulation type system modelling submonolayer deposition. We prove that, although all memory of the initial condition is lost in the similarity limit...

Methods based on L1-relaxation are popular for sparse regression in high dimensions. Elastic Net Regularization is an algorithm for learning and variable selection. It is based on a regularized least square procedure with a penalty which is the sum...

In this talk, I will present my recent result about the ergodic properties of nonequilibrium steady-state (NESS) for a stochastic energy exchange model. The energy exchange model can be seen as a stochastic approximation of a certain billiards-like...

The ABC Algebra Workshop is a series of one or two day workshops, featuring invited algebraists, from Alberta and British Columbia, and others from outside of Canada. Location: University of Alberta, Central Academic Building, Room 657. Click here...

Broad area Quantum Cascade Lasers (BA-QCLs) tend to oscillate on fewer transverse modes than the number which can be supported by the waveguide. In cases lasing is dominantly if not totally on a single high-order transverse mode, it leads to a well...

Much of the progress in applied mechanics and applied math has resulted from the gradual accumulation of knowledge and understanding through contributions by a community of researchers. However, occasionally a single paper contains fundamentally new...

The Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) invites the mathematical community to the 2016 CMS Summer Meeting in Edmonton, Alberta, from June 24-27. All meeting activities are taking place at University of Alberta (116 St & 85 Ave, Edmonton, AB T6G 2R3)...

Superschools focus on topics at the interface of Mathematics and Physics. Graduate students and early career researchers, from both Mathematics and Physics, will be guided, in an intense week-long summer school, by the mentors. String Theory...

This conference is a unique and important opportunity for graduate students in mathematics and statistics to meet their peers and discover the wide range of research currently undertaken in Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest. Participants will...

Please join us at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Society for the History and Philosophy of Mathematics for three days of presentations on a variety of topics in history and philosophy of mathematics from Sunday 29 May to Tuesday 31 May. A special...
