The International Workshop On Combinatorial Algorithms (IWOCA) is designed to bring together the most creative and successful practitioners in this fundamental intersection between mathematics and computer science. IWOCA's sessions provide for the...

Point singularities of very weak solutions of 3D stationary Navier-Stokes equations - Tai-Peng Tsai I will talk about a joint work with Hideyuki Miura, which characterizes the singularities of very weak solutions bounded by $C_*|x|^{-1}$ for $C_*$...

The Symposium is supported by the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences. As part of this year's meeting, we plan to celebrate the 65th birthday of Karl Petersen of the University of North Carolina. We gratefully acknowledge additional...

The International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), with the financial support of PIMS, is hosting the 5th Summer School on Theory, Mechanisms and Hierarchical Modelling of Climate Dynamics: “Convection and Clouds” between the 1st and 19th July...

For a population model that encodes parent-child relations, an ordered representation is a partial or complete labelling of individuals, in order of their descendants’ long-term success in some sense, with respect to which the ancestral structure is...

In Graph Theory, the well-known problems of packing and independence are generalized by broadcast packing and broadcast independence. As an analogy, placing cell towers (of various powers) in a network so that the signals do not interfere is a...
