Instructions, guidelines and application forms, as well as details about other funding opportunities, are available on the Fields webpage. Proposals for Thematic and Focus Programs in 2019 and Beyond ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Guidelines for preparation and submission of proposals for thematic and focus programs at the Fields Institute. They are also found here: http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/resources/thematic-and-focus-program-proposals Deadlines ------------- Deadlines for submission of proposals or letters of intent for thematic and focus program are March 15 and September 15 of each year, to allow for external reviews before consideration by our Scientific Advisory Panel, which meets in May and November. Decisions are normally announced by early June or December of each year. A complete proposal or letter of intent should be sent to proposals@fields.utoronto.ca Online submission will be available in the near future. Proposals for Major Thematic Programs ----------------------------------------------------- Major thematic programs of 4 or 6 months duration are the Institute's flagship activities. Organizers of major thematic programs are advised that a substantial lead time (up to two years) is recommended, and are encouraged to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) of 3 to 5 pages in length prior to preparing a complete proposal. The purpose of an LOI is to allow the Fields Institute to provide feedback before organizers do the considerable work needed to prepare a detailed proposal. Complete proposals for major thematic programs are typically 15-20 pages. Proposals for Short Thematic or Focus Program --------------------------------------------------------------- Short thematic or focus programs of 1 or 2 months duration provide a flexible and relatively rapid way to organize activities in areas of current research interest in the mathematical sciences. The Fields Institute particularly encourages summer programs of an interdisciplinary nature. Organizers of short thematic and focus programs are advised that a lead time of at least 18 months is recommended. An LOI is not normally needed, but can be considered prior to submission of a complete proposal. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The PhD position is four years. The postdoc position is one year, with a possible renewal. Both positions offer competitive salary and benefits, including generous support for travel. There is a light teaching duty that may be carried out in English if necessary. For both, the expected starting date is 1 September 2017 (negotiable). The project is in probabilistic and extremal combinatorics, and the goal is to develop and apply novel methods in the context of edge-colourings of graphs. The research has links with the theory of communication networks, random graphs and algorithms. The city of Nijmegen, with its Roman foundation, stakes a claim to being the oldest in the Netherlands. It is surrounded by lush green countryside and at the same time is conveniently connected to Schiphol airport and larger Dutch cities like Amsterdam and Utrecht.

Submitted papers should not exceed 25 pages. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings or journals is not allowed. Submissions should be made to the appropriate track of the conference, by e-mail to the track Chairs. All proofs omitted due to space constraints should be given in an appendix or made accessible through a reliable link to a freely available electronic preprint. ======================================================== Instructions for Submissions for the Design Theory Track, CAI 2017: Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract (up to 6 pages), containing original research results. The authors are responsible for convincing the reviewers of the correctness and interest of their results using only those six pages. Authors can add an optional appendix with proofs, sketches of proofs, or additional material. If included, the appendix will be read at the discretion of the reviewers if required to reach a decision. The appendix has no page limit, and because it will not be published, it cannot be referenced in the extended abstract. Submission of a paper implies that the work described has not been previously published (except in the form of a lecture or academic thesis), that it is not simultaneously submitted elsewhere, and that, if accepted, it will not be published elsewhere in the same form. A special volume of Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics (ENDM) will be dedicated to accepted extended abstracts to the Design Theory track of CAI 2017 and the publication date is expected for the second semester of 2018. The extended abstracts must comply with the ENDM LaTeX style and are limited to 6 pages, including the front matter, text, and references. Instructions for submission preparation may be obtained in the ENDM web page http://www.elsevier.com/locate/endm. Once prepared, the paper should be submitted by e-mail to the Design Theory track chairs using BOTH the email addresses below: CAI2017.DesignTheory@uottawa.ca, CAI2017.DesignTheory@sba-research.org NOTE: The publication of the extended abstract in the Design Theory track (ENDM) is independent and complementary to a possible submission of full papers to the volume of Theoretical Computer Science dedicated to best papers among all tracks of CAI 2017. ================================================= From commsp at cms.math.ca Tue Mar 7 13:00:59 2017 From: commsp at cms.math.ca (Melissa Bingol-Phillips) Date: Tue Mar 7 13:01:02 2017 Subject: [cmath] Professor Stephanie van Willigenburg to receive the 2017 CMS Krieger-Nelson Prize | Stephanie van Willigenburg remporte le prix Krieger-Nelson 2017 de la SMC Message-ID: <24934de2-cb93-2744-30f0-554a09da57f0@cms.math.ca> //We apologize for any duplication of emails that may come through via these distribution lists./// Le fran?ais suivra.../ The Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) is pleased to announce that *Professor Stephanie van Willigenburg* (University of British Columbia) has been named the recipient of the 2017 CMS Krieger-Nelson Prize!

The theory of o-minimality made a huge mark in arithmetic geometry with Pila's unconditional proof of the Andre-Oort conjecture for products of modular curves. Since then, there has been a lot of work on questions of unlikely intersections, centering around the Zilber-Pink conjecture, and very recently leading to a proof of the Andre-Oort conjecture for all Shimura varieties of abelian type. The aim of this workshop is to emphasize the recent applications to problems in unlikely intersections and functional transcendence. -- Bryan Eelhart Program Coordinator The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences 222 College Street .

The two communities share many central interests, but researchers from these two communities rarely interact. Also, the lack of common or compatible interfaces of tools is an obstacle to their fruitful combination. Bridges between the communities in the form of common platforms and road-maps are necessary to initiate an exchange, and to support and direct their interaction. The aim of this workshop, along the SC-square H2020 FETOPEN Coordination and Support Activity project, is to provide a time to discuss, share knowledge and experience across both communities. The workshop is open for submission and participation to everyone interested in the topics, whether they are members or associates of the SC-square H2020 FETOPEN CSA project or not. The topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Decision procedures and their embedding into SMT solvers and computer algebra systems - Satisfiability Checking for Symbolic Computation - Symbolic Computation for Satisfiability Checking - Applications relying on both Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking - Combination of Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking tools ===Related Events=== We note that there are a number of related events occurring adjacent in the vicinity: - The 15th International Workshop on Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT '17) 22-23 July 2017, Heidelberg, Germany. - The 29th International Conference on Computer-Aided Verification (CAV '17) 24-28 July 2017, Heidelberg, Germany. - The 42nd International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation (ISSAC '17) 25-28 July 2017, Kaiserslautern, Germany. - The 2nd International Workshop on Satisfiability Checking and Symbolic Computation (SC2 2017) 29 July 2017, Kaiserslautern, Germany. - The SC2 Summer School 2017 31 July - 4 August 2017, Saarbr?cken, Germany. SC2 '17 is formally a satellite workshop of ISSAC '17.

The event will be held in room 230 of the Fields Institute (222 College Street, Toronto, ON). This year's presentation "Insights Into Human Survival" will be delivered by Dr. Noreen Goldman from Princeton University. Why do never-married persons typically die earlier than their married counterparts? Why do Latinos in the US live longer than non-Latino whites despite having lower education, lower income, and poorer access to healthcare? Inspired by the simple, yet elegant, mathematical models of Nathan Keyfitz, Goldman will describe her work using basic mathematical and statistical tools to understand the, sometimes surprising, societal inequalities in survival.

The CMS works hard to promote the discovery, learning and application of mathematics in Canada. The CMS enhances the practice of mathematics in Canada through national conferences and publishing research journals, books, and newsletters in both print and electronic formats. The CMS, with the assistance of volunteers, supports efforts that identify and develop young mathematicians through its math competitions, math camps and other educational activities. The work of the CMS is carried out by a large number of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers, together with a small experienced staff of eight at the CMS Executive Office in Ottawa. The role of the Executive Secretary is to support the CMS President (together with the CMS Executive Committee and the chairs of CMS Standing committees) and liaise between them and the staff of the CMS Executive office. This is envisioned as a half-time position. The Executive Secretary is not required to be based in Ottawa, since a portion of this position could be managed remotely. But if the Executive Secretary is not based in Ottawa, they must be able to travel easily to Ottawa, as the expectation is that they will spend at least one day per week at the CMS Executive Office. For those who know the history of the CMS, there used to be a full-time position (titled Executive Director) that had a different function, namely to administer the Executive Office. Restructuring at the CMS means that staff at the CMS Executive Office now independently manage most of the operations of the CMS. The Executive Secretary position is envisioned instead as providing a single contact, to help operationalize policy decisions of the CMS President and Executive committee via the Executive Office. The new Executive Secretary will be someone with both administrative experience and broad knowledge of the Canadian Mathematical community. A doctoral degree in Mathematics is required, as well as excellent organizational, interpersonal, and problem solving skills. Detailed requirements for the position are listed in the on-line job description . The position is ideal for someone who is looking to transition from a full-time academic position to a half-time role. Alternatively, the CMS is also willing to explore the possibility of a half-time secondment (or buyout) from a full-time academic position. This position offers a unique opportunity to support the Canadian Mathematical Society, and to enhance the Canadian Mathematical community. It is a varied and flexible position requiring both vision and administrative talent. Applications, including a covering letter, curriculum vitae and references, are sought by *June 23, 2017* as consideration of applications will begin thereafter. Applications should be sent to: es-search@cms.math.ca Thank you. Michael Bennett CMS President ------------------------------------------------------------------------ //Nous nous excusons pour toute duplication des courriels pouvant ?tre transmis par ces listes de distribution./// / La SMC cherche un secr?taire ex?cutif La Soci?t? math?matique du Canada est actuellement ? la recherche d'une personne enthousiaste, sachant faire preuve d'initiative et tr?s d?sireuse de soutenir le d?veloppement de la communaut? math?matique du Canada, pour pourvoir le poste de secr?taire ex?cutif. La SMC s'efforce de promouvoir la d?couverte, l'apprentissage et l'application des math?matiques au Canada. Elle am?liore la pratique des math?matiques au Canada gr?ce ? des congr?s nationaux et ? la publication de revues de recherche, de livres et de bulletins d'information en format imprim? et ?lectronique. Avec l'aide de b?n?voles, la SMC appuie les efforts destin?s ? identifier et ? former de jeunes math?maticiens gr?ce ? des concours et ? des camps math?matiques, sans oublier d'autres activit?s ?ducatives. Le travail de la SMC est effectu? par un grand nombre de b?n?voles d?vou?s et enthousiastes, et un personnel exp?riment? restreint, compos? de huit personnes au bureau administratif d'Ottawa. Le r?le du secr?taire ex?cutif est de soutenir le pr?sident de la SMC (en collaboration avec le Comit? ex?cutif et les pr?sidents des comit?s permanents) et d'assurer la liaison entre eux et le personnel du bureau administratif. Il s'agit d'un poste ? mi-temps. Le secr?taire ex?cutif ne doit pas forc?ment ?tre bas? ? Ottawa, puisqu'une partie des t?ches pourrait ?tre g?r?e ? distance. S'il est situ? ailleurs, il doit ?tre en mesure de se d?placer facilement vers la capitale, puisqu'il devra passer au moins une journ?e par semaine au bureau administratif de la SMC. Pour ceux qui connaissent l'histoire de la SMC, il s'agissait d'un poste ? temps plein (directeur ex?cutif) et les fonctions ?taient diff?rentes, ? savoir l'administration du bureau administratif. La restructuration de la SMC signifie que le personnel du bureau administratif g?re d?sormais la plupart des activit?s ind?pendamment. Le poste de secr?taire ex?cutif vise plut?t ? fournir un contact unique pour faciliter la mise en oeuvre des d?cisions politiques du pr?sident de la SMC et du Comit? ex?cutif par l'interm?diaire du bureau administratif. Le nouveau secr?taire ex?cutif poss?dera ? la fois une exp?rience administrative et une vaste connaissance de la communaut? math?matique canadienne. Un doctorat en math?matiques est n?cessaire, ainsi que d'excellentes capacit?s d'organisation, de communication interpersonnelle et de r?solution de probl?mes. Les exigences d?taill?es sont ?num?r?es dans la description de l'emploi en ligne . Ce poste est id?al pour quelqu'un qui cherche ? passer d'un emploi universitaire ? temps plein ? un emploi ? mi-temps. La SMC est ?galement pr?te ? ?tudier la possibilit? d'un d?tachement ? mi-temps d'un poste universitaire ? temps plein (ou d'un paiement forfaitaire). Ce poste repr?sente une occasion unique de soutenir la Soci?t? math?matique du Canada et d'am?liorer la communaut? math?matique canadienne. Il s'agit d'un emploi vari? et flexible n?cessitant ? la fois une vision et des talents en administration. Les candidatures, y compris les lettres d'accompagnement, le curriculum vitae et les r?f?rences doivent nous parvenir avant le *23 juin 2017* puisque leur examen commencera tout de suite apr?s cette date. Les candidatures doivent ?tre adress?es ? : se-cherche@smc.math.ca Merci. Michael Bennett Pr?sident de la SMC -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The CMS works hard to promote the discovery, learning and application of mathematics in Canada. The CMS enhances the practice of mathematics in Canada through national conferences and publishing research journals, books, and newsletters in both print and electronic formats. The CMS, with the assistance of volunteers, supports efforts that identify and develop young mathematicians through its math competitions, math camps and other educational activities. The work of the CMS is carried out by a large number of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers, together with a small experienced staff of eight at the CMS Executive Office in Ottawa. The role of the Executive Secretary is to support the CMS President (together with the CMS Executive Committee and the chairs of CMS Standing committees) and liaise between them and the staff of the CMS Executive office. This is envisioned as a half-time position. The Executive Secretary is not required to be based in Ottawa, since a portion of this position could be managed remotely. But if the Executive Secretary is not based in Ottawa, they must be able to travel easily to Ottawa, as the expectation is that they will spend at least one day per week at the CMS Executive Office. For those who know the history of the CMS, there used to be a full-time position (titled Executive Director) that had a different function, namely to administer the Executive Office. Restructuring at the CMS means that staff at the CMS Executive Office now independently manage most of the operations of the CMS. The Executive Secretary position is envisioned instead as providing a single contact, to help operationalize policy decisions of the CMS President and Executive committee via the Executive Office. The new Executive Secretary will be someone with both administrative experience and broad knowledge of the Canadian Mathematical community. A doctoral degree in Mathematics is required, as well as excellent organizational, interpersonal, and problem solving skills. Detailed requirements for the position are listed in the on-line job description . The position is ideal for someone who is looking to transition from a full-time academic position to a half-time role. Alternatively, the CMS is also willing to explore the possibility of a half-time secondment (or buyout) from a full-time academic position. This position offers a unique opportunity to support the Canadian Mathematical Society, and to enhance the Canadian Mathematical community. It is a varied and flexible position requiring both vision and administrative talent. Applications, including a covering letter, curriculum vitae and references, are sought by *June 23, 2017* as consideration of applications will begin thereafter. Applications should be sent to: es-search@cms.math.ca Thank you.

La SMC s'efforce de promouvoir la d?couverte, l'apprentissage et l'application des math?matiques au Canada. Elle am?liore la pratique des math?matiques au Canada gr?ce ? des congr?s nationaux et ? la publication de revues de recherche, de livres et de bulletins d'information en format imprim? et ?lectronique. Avec l'aide de b?n?voles, la SMC appuie les efforts destin?s ? identifier et ? former de jeunes math?maticiens gr?ce ? des concours et ? des camps math?matiques, sans oublier d'autres activit?s ?ducatives. Le travail de la SMC est effectu? par un grand nombre de b?n?voles d?vou?s et enthousiastes, et un personnel exp?riment? restreint, compos? de huit personnes au bureau administratif d'Ottawa. Le r?le du secr?taire ex?cutif est de soutenir le pr?sident de la SMC (en collaboration avec le Comit? ex?cutif et les pr?sidents des comit?s permanents) et d'assurer la liaison entre eux et le personnel du bureau administratif. Il s'agit d'un poste ? mi-temps. Le secr?taire ex?cutif ne doit pas forc?ment ?tre bas? ? Ottawa, puisqu'une partie des t?ches pourrait ?tre g?r?e ? distance. S'il est situ? ailleurs, il doit ?tre en mesure de se d?placer facilement vers la capitale, puisqu'il devra passer au moins une journ?e par semaine au bureau administratif de la SMC. Pour ceux qui connaissent l'histoire de la SMC, il s'agissait d'un poste ? temps plein (directeur ex?cutif) et les fonctions ?taient diff?rentes, ? savoir l'administration du bureau administratif. La restructuration de la SMC signifie que le personnel du bureau administratif g?re d?sormais la plupart des activit?s ind?pendamment. Le poste de secr?taire ex?cutif vise plut?t ? fournir un contact unique pour faciliter la mise en oeuvre des d?cisions politiques du pr?sident de la SMC et du Comit? ex?cutif par l'interm?diaire du bureau administratif. Le nouveau secr?taire ex?cutif poss?dera ? la fois une exp?rience administrative et une vaste connaissance de la communaut? math?matique canadienne. Un doctorat en math?matiques est n?cessaire, ainsi que d'excellentes capacit?s d'organisation, de communication interpersonnelle et de r?solution de probl?mes. Les exigences d?taill?es sont ?num?r?es dans la description de l'emploi en ligne . Ce poste est id?al pour quelqu'un qui cherche ? passer d'un emploi universitaire ? temps plein ? un emploi ? mi-temps. La SMC est ?galement pr?te ? ?tudier la possibilit? d'un d?tachement ? mi-temps d'un poste universitaire ? temps plein (ou d'un paiement forfaitaire). Ce poste repr?sente une occasion unique de soutenir la Soci?t? math?matique du Canada et d'am?liorer la communaut? math?matique canadienne. Il s'agit d'un emploi vari? et flexible n?cessitant ? la fois une vision et des talents en administration. Les candidatures, y compris les lettres d'accompagnement, le curriculum vitae et les r?f?rences doivent nous parvenir avant le *23 juin 2017* puisque leur examen commencera tout de suite apr?s cette date.

The international event will take place in Brazil, at the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Sciences (ICMC) of USP, in S?o Carlos, from July 17 to 21, 2017. "Commutative algebra is a rich area for applications within mathematics, being used, for instance, to solve problems related to dynamical systems, analytic geometry, topology and singularity theory," points out Professor Victor Jorge P?rez of ICMC, one of the Coordinators of the event. "However, in Brazil, there are only a few researchers, research groups and events related to this field of knowledge," adds P?rez. In view of this, one of the objectives of the meeting is to help developing an increasing number of young researchers from Brazil and Latin America, creating an appropriate atmosphere of cooperation. During the five days of the event, there will be 15 plenary lectures in total, 1 poster session and, moreover, 3 mini courses, to wit: ? Rees Algebras: Criteria for Cohen-Macaulayness and Integral Dependence, which will be taught by Bernd Ulrich (Purdue University, United States); ? Defining Equations of Blowup Algebras, which will be taught by Claudia Polini (University of Notre Dame, United States); ? Aspects of homological and combinatorial commutative algebra, to be taught by J?rgen Herzog (University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany). Registration for the event can be made through July 17, using the electronic form available at the icmc.usp.br/e/418b3 . *The honoree -* One of the great exponents of commutative algebra in Brazil and in the world, Professor Aron Simis is the author of more than 10 books/lecture notes and about 100 scientific papers published in internationally recognized journals. He directed 20 master and doctoral students, as well as several postdoctoral fellows throughout his career. Professor Aron Simis began in 1963, when he finished his degree in mathematics at the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE), and obtained his Master's degree (1969) and Ph.D. (1972) in mathematics from Queen'sUniversity, Canada. He is a retired emeritus professor of the UFPE, where he carries out continuous activities in the Graduate School of the Department of Mathematics. Currently, he is a visiting professor at ICMC. He is a full member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Sciences of Developing Countries. "The meeting we will hold is a unique opportunity to recognize Professor Aron Simis academic endeavor for Brazilian mathematics," Perez said. The event has the support of the Foundation for Research Support of the State of S?o Paulo (FAPESP), the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), the National Institute of Science and Technology of Mathematics (INCTMat) and the department of mathematical sciences of the Italian Politecnico di Torino. /Text (in Portuguese) by Denise Casatti - ICMC / USP Communications Department/ International Meeting in Commutative Algebra and its Related Areas (IMCARA) Event website: simcara.wixsite.com/imcara Subscriptions: icmc.usp.br/e/418b3 When: July 17-21, 2017 More information: 55 16 3373.9622 or eventos@icmc.usp.br -------------------- Se??o de Apoio Institucional - Comunica??o ICMC - USP [From: Comunica??o ICMC-USP ] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Six ans seulement après l’obtention de son doctorat, Jacob Tsimerman est devenu un mathématicien hors pair dont le travail à l’interface de la théorie de la transcendance, de la théorie des nombres analytique et de la géométrie arithmétique démontre de remarquables qualités de créativité et de perspicacité. Jacob a prouvé l’existence de variétés abeliennes définies sur des corps de nombres qui ne sont pas isogènes à la jacobienne d’une courbe. Ceci avait été le sujet d’une conjecture de Katz and Oort qui découle de la conjecture d’André-Oort. Dans des travaux réalisés avec plusieurs collaborateurs, Jacob a établi des bornes non-triviales pour la 2-torsion dans les groupes de classe de corps de nombres. Pour des corps quadratiques, ceci peut se faire par la théorie du genre, mais le cas général restait énigmatique. Avec Bakker, Jacob a établi des analogues géométriques de résultats de bornes uniformes Frey-Mazur pour des courbes elliptiques sur des corps de fonction. Leur approche a produit des résultats probants avec des méthodes qui permettent des applications plus générales. Parmi les contributions les plus notables de Jacob figurent ses percées sur la conjecture d’André-Oort. Cette conjecture sur les variétés de Shimura, à l’intersection de la géométrie diophantienne et de l’arithmétique des formes automorphes, a été un thème central de la recherche en géométrie analytique depuis plusieurs années. Jacob avait déjà fait des progrès importants sur ce thème dans sa thèse de doctorat, mais au cours des dernières années, travaillant avec Pila, il a créé plusieurs outils techniques servant à prouver le cas de la variété modulaire de Siegel. Une composante restait à compléter sur la taille des orbites de Galois. Jacob résolu ce problème dans un bref article qui démontre que cette composante découle d’une forme moyenne de la conjecture de Colmez. Cette dernière a été démontrée par Andreatta, Goren, Howard, et Madapusi-Pera, et indépendamment par Yuan et Zhang, fournissant une preuve inconditionnelle de la conjecture d’André-Oort pour cette variété de Shimura. En plus d’être un chercheur brillant et innovateur, Jacob est également un excellent enseignant et conférencier. Il est très actif dans la promotion des mathématiques en particulier comme entraineur de l’équipe canadienne participant à l’Olympiade internationale de mathématiques (OIM). Il préside d’ailleurs le comité canadien de l’OIM. -30- *Source*: Centre de recherches mathématiques – 514-343-7501 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ::1.Tout le bureau:Logos test:Logos:LOGO_CRM2.epsPress release Dr. Jacob Tsimerman, University of Toronto 2017 André-Aisenstadt Prize Recipient* * *Montréal, June 20, 2017.*- The International Scientific Advisory Committee of the Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) is pleased to announce that Jacob Tsimerman, of the University of Toronto, is the 2017 André Aisenstadt Prize recipient. Just six years beyond his PhD, Jacob Tsimerman is an extraordinary mathematician whose work at the interface of transcendence theory, analytic number theory and arithmetic geometry is remarkable for its creativity and insight. Jacob proved the existence of Abelian varieties defined over number fields that are not isogenous to the Jacobian of a curve. This had been conjectured by Katz and Oort and follows from the André-Oort conjecture. In joint work with several collaborators, Jacob established non-trivial bounds for the 2-torsion in the class groups of number fields. For quadratic fields, this can be done by genus theory but the general case was a complete mystery. With Bakker, Jacob has established geometric analogues of the Frey-Mazur uniform boundedness results for elliptic curves over function fields. Their approach has yielded powerful results with methods amenable to far more general applications. Among Jacob's most notable accomplishments are his recent breakthroughs on the André-Oort conjecture. This conjecture about Shimura varieties, at the intersection of diophantine geometry and the arithmetic of automorphic forms, has been a central theme in Arithmetic Geometry for many years. Jacob already made important progress on it in his thesis, but in the last few years, working together with Pila, he created many of the technical tools for proving the case of the Siegel modular variety. There was still one piece that had to be completed on the size of Galois orbits. Jacob settled this final component in a brilliant short paper which showed that it follows from an average form of the Colmez conjecture. The latter has been proved by Andreatta, Goren, Howard and Madapusi-Perla, and independently by Yuan and Zhang, thus giving a complete unconditional proof of the André-Oort conjecture for this Shimura variety. Besides being a brilliant and innovative researcher, Jacob is also an excellent expositor and teacher. Moreover, he has been active in Math Outreach through his work helping to train the Canadian team for the International Math Olympiad. He is currently the Chair of the Canadian IMO Committee. ### *Source*: Centre de recherches mathématiques – 514-343-7501 -------------- section suivante -------------- contenu de type multipart/related sautéFrom akelm at cms.math.ca Mon Jun 26 16:15:11 2017 From: akelm at cms.math.ca (Alan Kelm) Date: Mon Jun 26 16:15:45 2017 Subject: [cmath] Three-Year Limited Term Position in Biostatistics - Western University Message-ID: <03aa8096-1ab9-1294-6d28-a0bd95249b20@cms.math.ca> Skipped content of type multipart/alternative-------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Help could include, for example, funding meetings, travel for individuals for consultation purposes, or advice and support in creating websites. Please note that CWM will not normally fund activities taking place in the same or nearby location as one it has already funded in 2015, 2016 or 2017 (see www.mathunion.org/cwm/ for the list). b) Organizing a mathematical school open to all with all women speakers and mainly women organisers.This type of mathematical school, which should include a significant proportion of time devoted to background and introductory material, can be a very effective way of showcasing the contributions of women mathematicians and creating an opportunity for female students to be in touch with women leaders, without excluding male students. Expenses covered by CWM could include, for example, costs for speakers, women organisers, or for women participants. c) Other ideas for researching and/or addressing issues encountered by women in mathematics may also be considered. Proposers should write a short account (no more than two pages) explaining the nature of their activity and how it fulfills one of the above aims, as well as indications on how the CWM money would be spent and other funding which may be available. There will be only one call for applications regarding activities in 2018 with deadline 15 December, 2017. Applications should be sent to applications-for-cwm@mathunion.org Successful applications will be informed no later than 31January, 2018. Depending on demand, successful applications may not be funded in full.

Jeremy Quastel est g?n?ralement consid?r? comme l'un des meilleurs probabilistes du monde, ? cause des perc?es majeures qu'il a r?alis?es en th?orie hydrodynamique, en th?orie des ?quations diff?rentielles partielles stochastiques et dans les aspects probabilistes des syst?mes int?grables. Il est particuli?rement reconnu pour une s?rie de travaux novateurs effectu?s au cours des dix derni?res ann?es et li?s ? l'?quation de Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) et ? la classe plus large de mod?les de croissance al?atoire suppos?s partager la m?me limite d'?chelle ? long terme (la soi-disant classe d'universalit? KPZ). Il a prouv? une hypoth?se des physiciens remontant ? 25 ans sur les exposants d'?chelle pour l'?quation KPZ. Il a ?galement r?ussi ? donner une formule exacte pour sa distribution en un point. Il a d?montr? que l'?quation de KPZ est universelle en ce qu'elle se pr?sente comme une limite d'?chelle d'une grande vari?t? d'?quations diff?rentielles partielles stochastiques non lin?aires de type Hamilton-Jacobi. Plus r?cemment, il a construit et calcul? les probabilit?s de transition pour le processus de Markov ? point fixe KPZ ?, qui devrait ?tre la limite universelle ? long terme de tous les mod?les appartenant ? la classe d'universalit? de KPZ. Parmi ses contributions ant?rieures, Quastel a obtenu l'?quation de Navier-Stokes incompressible ? partir d'une classe de syst?mes de particules en interaction; il a aussi ?tabli des ?quations pour le comportement du mod?le d'agr?gation limit?e par diffusion interne et a prouv? une conjecture sur la vitesse du front de d?placement pour l'?quation stochastique de Fisher-Kolmogorov-Petrovsky- Piskunov, qui mod?lise les processus de diffusion avec branchement. ? cause de l'impact profond de son travail, Quastel a ?t? nomm? Fellow de la Soci?t? royale du Canada en 2016 et re?u une bourse de recherche Killam en 2013. Il fut conf?rencier invit? lors du Congr?s international des math?maticiens de 2010 ? Hyderabad en Inde. Jeremy Quastel obtint son doctorat de l'Institut Courant en 1990. Apr?s six ann?es pass?es ? l'Universit? de Californie ? Davis, il devint professeur ? l'Universit? de Toronto (o? il se trouve toujours) en 1998. ________________________________________________ The winner of the 2018 CRM - Fields - PIMS Prize is Professor Jeremy Quastel of the University of Toronto. Jeremy Quastel is widely recognized as one of the top probabilists in the world, having made major advances in the fields of hydrodynamic theory, stochastic partial differential equations, and integrable probability. He is particularly recognized for a series of ground-breaking works during the last ten years related to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation and the wider class of random growth models conjectured to share the same long-time, large-scale limit (the so-called KPZ universality class). He proved a 25 year old conjecture from physics about the scaling exponents for the KPZ equation, as well as computing an exact formula for its one-point distribution. He demonstrated that the KPZ equation is universal in that it arises as a scaling limit of a wide variety of non-linear stochastic partial differential equations of Hamilton-Jacobi type. Most recently, he constructed and computed transition probabilities for the 'KPZ fixed point' Markov process, which should be the universal long-time limit of all models in the KPZ universality class. Among his earlier contributions, Quastel derived the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation from a class of interacting particle systems, derived equations for the behaviour of the internal diffusion-limited-aggregation model, and proved a conjecture about the speed of the traveling front for the stochastic Fisher-Kolmogorov?Petrovsky? Piskunov equation, which models branching diffusion processes. For the profound impact of his work, Quastel has been recognized as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (2016), and was the recipient of a Killam Research Fellowship (2013). He delivered an invited address at the 2010 International Congress of Mathematicians in Hyderabad India. Jeremy Quastel received his Ph.D. from the Courant Institute in 1990. After six years at the University of California, Davis, he moved to his present position at the University of Toronto in 1998. -------------- section suivante -------------- Une pi?ce jointe HTML a ?t? enlev?e...
