For a finite-dimensional algebra A over an algebraically closed field k, varieties of finite-dimensional A-modules offer a geometric perspective on the homological and categorical properties of A and its modules. These varieties parametrize vector...

Tipping points (critical transitions) are abrupt, often irreversible shifts in dynamical systems that can be triggered by small changes. This talk tackles two questions: how to predict tipping early and why tipping occurs. In this talk, I will...

Weighting methods are essential tools for estimating causal effects in observational studies, with the goal of balancing pre-treatment covariates across treatment groups. Traditional approaches pursue this objective indirectly, for example, via...

Despite only comprising about a quarter of the total population of Canada, foreign-born individuals bear about three-quarters of the burden of active tuberculosis (TB) cases. To investigate the impact of immigration on the burden of TB among foreign...

Every quantitative strategy has a lifecycle. It gets discovered, deployed, crowded, and eventually either dies or evolves. These phases are only obvious in hindsight. Living through them, you never know which one you're in. This talk replays the...

Abstract TBA

In arithmetic geometry, local-to-global principles capture the ways in which one approaches difficult "global" questions over number fields by studying their "local" analogues over $p$-adic fields. These principles often fail for questions about the...
