Undergraduate Student Lecture Series

 

SPEAKER: Stephen Harrigan (uottawa)             ABSTRACT: We first define lattices. We then survey some lattice problems and lattice-based cryptographic schemes based off of these problems. We then delve into improvements to these algorithms using rings, which motivates future research.

Algebra Seminar

 

SPEAKER: Philippe Gille (CNRS, Lyon I)             ABSTRACT: This is a report on joint work with Seidon Alsaody (Lyon). Let C be an octonion algebra defined over a ring R. Informally speaking, an isotope C' of C is a kind of deformation of C defined by Albert and which has been investigated by McCrimmon and Knus/Parimala/Sridharan. The aim of this talk is to describe and to classify the isotopes of C by means of triality and cohomological methods.

Colloquium

    SPEAKER: Peter Latham (King's College London) ABSTRACT: The main objective of modern algebraic number theory is to understand the absolute Galois group of the rational numbers, which has an incredibly rich structure. As with many problems in number theory, this breaks into a family of local problems, namely the study of a certain decomposition subgroup for each prime number p" id="MathJax-Element-1-Frame" role="presentation" style="position: relative;" tabindex="0">p

  The mathematical models used in cardiac electrophysiology are parabolic PDE,

  coupled with systems of ODEs called ionic models. These models

  belong to the class of stiff reaction diffusion equations, where the PDE and ODE are both

  responsible of the stiffness. The PDE displays a diffusion term that is solved

  implicitely while the reaction term coupled with the ODE system is strongly non
