• CMS Special Session: Combinatorial Game Theory

    University of New Brunswick (Fredericton Campus) Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada

    Placement games are a class of combinatorial games (two-player, perfect information) that have received renewed attention recently. Well known examples are Hex, Domineering, and Snort. Work on placement games can be divided into two main streams - studies focusing on

  • CMS Special Session: Noncommutative Geometry and Topology

    University of New Brunswick (Fredericton Campus) Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada

    Noncommutative geometry is a generalization of classical geometry that provides new mathematical tools for both mathematical problems and physical models by allowing for geometric spaces and spacetimes whose coordinates no longer necessarily commute. For example, the functional-analytic approach to noncommutative

  • CMS Special Session: Categories and Topology

    University of New Brunswick (Fredericton Campus) Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada

    The purpose of this session is to bring together researchers from category theory and various branches of topology. This includes categorical aspects and approaches to homotopy theory, such as Quillen Model Categories, higher-dimensional categories and (higher) topos theory, homotopy type
