Symmetry, Invariants, and their Applications: A Celebration of Peter Olver’s 70th Birthday
This is a proposal for a workshop on symmetry, invariants, and their applications in celebration of Peter Olver's 70th birthday. Transformation and groups are an omnipresent concept in nature, science, and art. Many biological, chemical, physical, or man-made structures exhibit symmetries as a fundamental design principle or as an essential aspect of their functioning. Symmetry groups also occur in a wide variety of modern applications including computer vision, archaeology, numerical integration, and neural networks, differential equations, geometry, and applied mathematics.…

The objective of the conference is to bring together an international group of experts in three areas: microlocal analysis, inverse problems and harmonic analysis. There will be 19 internationally recognized researchers in those subjects, each invited to give a lecture. There has recently been great progress in all these areas, with mutual benefits, and no end in sight. With this conference we hope to foster interaction and collaboration among speakers and other participants from the three different areas. Furthermore, the…

The Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry (CCCG) is a forum to disseminate and discuss theoretical and applied results in discrete and computational geometry. Computational geometry is concerned with the design of efficient algorithms, the development of software, and the study of the mathematical foundations of computational problems whose formulation involves geometric constraints. The field is motivated by problems from a broad range of application areas, as diverse as computer graphics and animation, computer vision, computer-aided design and manufacturing, geographic information…

Addressing graphs and hypergraphs In 1970s, Ron Graham and Henry Pollak introduced the notion of graph addressing which is a labeling of the vertices of an undirected graph by words of the same length over the alphabet {0,1,*} such that the distance between any two vertices equals the number of positions in their labels/addresses where one vertex has a 0 and the other one has a 1. The minimum of length of such words has been investigated by various people…

The 19th Seminar on Commutative Algebra and related topics
Every year the school of mathematics of IPM-Tehran organizes a seminar and workshop to introduce the research topics in the main streams of "Algebraic Geometry, Commutative algebra and Combinatorial commutative algebra" to young researchers and PhD students, and encourage them to collaborate in teams led by well-known mathematicians in this area. This year we have paid special attention to inviting regional speakers, as well as international leaders. Our list of speakers highlights female mathematicians, and the areas represented are those…

An Unsupervised Framework for Comparing Graph Embeddings The goal of many machine learning applications is to make predictions or discover new patterns using graph-structured data as feature information. In order to extract useful structural information from graphs, one might want to try to embed it in a geometric space by assigning coordinates to each node such that nearby nodes are more likely to share an edge than those far from each other. There are many embedding algorithms (based on techniques…

Title: Energy Minimizing Surface Tension Configurations for Microparticles Abstract: An important area of microfluidics is the creation and manipulation of small droplets. This is commonly done using microchannels or electrowetting. Recently a new method is proposed to create templated droplets using amphiphilic microparticles. These particles are observed to hold nearly equal volumes of aqueous liquid when dispersed in an oil–water mixture. However a theory for this behavior is lacking. In this paper, we present a mathematical model based on minimizing the…
