AARMS Summer School 2019: Dynamical Systems, DEs, and Special Functions
The summer school is intended for graduate students and promising undergraduate students from all parts of the world. Each participant is expected to register for at least two of the four courses. These courses are certified to be graduate level courses by both the School of Mathematical and Computational Sciences (SMCS) at University of Prince Edward Island and by the Atlantic Association for Research in the Mathematical Sciences (AARMS). Upon successful completion of a course, SMCS and AARMS will award…

Valley Math and Computer Science Camp
In July of 2019, Acadia University plans to launch the first junior math and computer science camp in Nova Scotia. This is an opportunity for young students in the Annapolis Valley to participate in a week of fun and enriching science-based activities, and develop their curiosity and enjoyment of math and computer science.

The Atlantic Association for Research in the Mathematical Sciences (AARMS) will host its second Industrial Problem Solving Workshop (IPSW) from July 15 to 19 at the University of New Brunswick. At this event, representatives from companies and non-profits from Atlantic Canada and elsewhere will present academically interesting and industrial relevant problems to graduate students and faculty mentors. The mentors and students work intensively on the problems for a few days and then present their solutions back to the industrial representatives.

Nonassociative algebras and geometry
The workshop is dedicated to recent developments in the theory of nonassociative algebras with emphasis on applications and relations with associated geometries (e.g. simple non-associative algebras, gradings and identities on Lie algebras, algebraic cycles and Schubert calculus on the associated homogeneous spaces). This is a joint event of the Atlantic Algebra Center (AAC) together with the Network of Ontario Lie Theorists (NOLT), which continues the successful collaboration between AAC and NOLT. It will include several introductory mini-courses and talks given…

Borders in public health and mathematical epidemiology
Most research in Mathematical Epidemiology focuses on infectious disease characteristics within local, isolated populations and geographic regions. However, infectious diseases are not confined to small regions. They cross borders, affecting multiple populations, jurisdictions, and governments. This workshop aims to foster mathematical models of infectious diseases across borders and at the intersection of mathematics and public health. An important component of this workshop is the inclusion of infectious disease modellers that work in local, federal, and global health organizations. The workshop…

Open quantum systems
This course is concerned with the behaviour quantum systems under the influence of external noise. The theory describes generic noise induced features, such as decoherence, entanglement, thermalization. They are of core interest in applications in various branches of science: in quantum information and computation, chemistry, material sciences and even in biology. Basic familiarity with this theory is a good (and necessary) foundation for a more advanced understanding of most modern quantum sciences. The course will be taught by Marco Merkli…
