The first part of the summer school takes place parallel to the CAIMS Annual Meeting. The summer school is followed by the Sixth International IMS-FIPS Workshop, which takes place July 7-9, also at the University of Alberta in Edmonton.

In this talk, I will present the chaotic phenomenon of a dynamical system with positive entropy. It is shown that a dynamical system has positive entropy if and only if it has a weak horseshoe. Particularly, I will show that a Lorentz attractor has a...

I will discuss the following question: Is any smooth or analytic orientation preserving diffeomorphism of the circle $f$ with an irrational rotation number $\alpha$ almost reducible in the sense that there exists a sequence of smooth or analytic...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...
