Atlantic Graph Theory Seminar

February 28, 2024 @ 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Online via Zoom

Pursuit-evasion on Graphs Trent Marbach, Toronto Metropolitan University The study of pursuit-evasion on graphs looks at games played between two adversaries, with one player tasked with alluding capture from the other on the graph. We will describe these types of games in general, although we will take a particular focus on two games: the Cops and Robber game, and the Localization game. A famous open conjecture for the Cops and Robber game has spurred recent work in the area, and…

2024 Integration Competition

February 29, 2024
Saint Francis Xavier University, 4130 University Avenue
Antigonish, Nova Scotia B2G 2W5 Canada

The Integration Competition (held 4 times in the past at this university, funded by AARMS), is a head-to-head competition, in which all first-year calculus students are eligible to compete. Integrals of increasing difficulty are projected, and two students work head to head, to solve it first. The winner moves on, and the other student is eliminated. This process moves through successive rounds until only 2 students are left, solving a challenging problem in integration. This generates excitement about mathematics among…

Atlantic Graph Theory Seminar

March 6, 2024 @ 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Online via Zoom

Induced subgraphs and treewidth Speaker: Sophie Spirkl, University of Waterloo Abstract: Treewidth is a measure of the complexity of a graph and has both structural and algorithmic consequences. While results of Robertson and Seymour characterize which minors appear in graphs of large treewidth, the same question is still open for induced subgraphs. I will present some recent results towards an answer to this question, in particular, about when excluding a finite set of induced subgraphs leads to the answer being…

39th Annual New Brunswick Mathematics Competition

May 10, 2024
5 Locations in New Brunswick New Brunswick + Google Map

The provincial New Brunswick Math Competition is a bilingual math competition that takes place in May each year. Students in grades 7-9 from across the province (approximately 1,100 students) attend one of five university locations to simultaneously write the one-hour math competition. There are three competition papers according to grade; each available in both English and French. Following the competition in the morning, students attend enrichment activities held at the universities; awards are distributed at all locations late afternoon. The…

16th East Coast Combinatorics Conference

May 13, 2024 - May 14, 2024
Memorial University (Grenfell Campus) Cornerbrook, Newfoundland and Labrador Canada

The East Coast Combinatorics Conference is a 2-day annual event that brings together researchers in graph theory, design theory, and other areas of combinatorics. There will be two plenary speakers, and a number of contributed talks, in addition to opportunities for collaboration. The event brings together established researchers and those in the early stages of their academic careers and provides opportunities for subsequent collaborative research projects. We encourage participation by students since they greatly benefit from the opportunity to meet…

Atlantic Topological Quantum Field Theory Spring School 2024

May 20, 2024 - May 24, 2024
Memorial University (St. John’s Campus) St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador Canada + Google Map

Topological Quantum Field Theory lives at the intersection of category theory, algebraic topology, representation theory, and theoretical physics. Physically, TQFTs describe and control the symmetries of quantum systems, including quantum symmetries, anomalous symmetries, and higher-form symmetries. Mathematically, TQFTs provide a dictionary between manifold topology and structures in representation theory, and as such allow computations and results to move between these separate fields. This school, aimed at early- to mid-career graduate students, will consist of three 5-hour minicourses related to TQFTs,…
