Planar functions are a class of Perfectly Nonlinear functions which have uses in cryptography, error correcting codes, and wireless signal transmission as well as of being of theoretical interest [...]
We will start with an exercise, the proof of Fermat’s Christmas Theorem – also called two squares theorem – via the hyperbolic plane. We will then slightly extend our approach to prove Lagrange’s [...]
22 February 2017, The Australian, John Ross. In the wake of recent comments about feminisation of science, AMSI-ANZIAM Lecturer, Dr Maria Vlasiou has warned against second guessing women’s [...]
Several transversality properties of pairs of sets and their role in the convergence analysis of fundamental projection algorithms will be discussed. Dual characterizations of the properties in [...]
Distributing points on spheres or other sets is a very classical problem. Its modern formulation in terms of energy-minimising configurations is due to the discoverer of the electron J. J. [...]
The workshop on agent-based spatio-temporal stochastic systems in biology will be a six-day event at the new MATRIX facility in Victoria in July 2018. The workshop will be attended by the [...]
Noncommutative geometry (NCG) is a theory using algebra of operators to study a class of nonstandard spaces, initially arising from quantum mechanics. Over the past few decades, it developed into [...]
We plan to hold a five-day workshop at Sydney University on the geometry and algebra of singularities, with applications in two types of complex systems which have come to the forefront of [...]
The event focuses on the exciting and important topic of interfaces in partial differential equations, with particular emphasis on free boundary problems and phase transitions. The argument is, [...]
The aim of this workshop is to bring together the world’s foremost experts on the theory of semigroups and their relationships to other fields of mathematics such as operator algebras and totally [...]
