We will discuss the concept of the general monotonicity of sequences/functions. Some applications to various problems of harmonic analysis and approximation theory will be considered.

Midpoint rule is a numerical integrator for ordinary differential equations. When used to simulate mechanical systems, it may reveal various structure-preserving features, such as symplecticity. The talk will discuss the variational origins and...

The Sixth G. J. Butler International Conference on Differential Equations and Population Biology will be held on the University of Alberta campus, Edmonton, from July 23-27, 2018. This conference in the memory of our late colleague, Geoffrey James...

The Canadian Conference on General Relativity and Relativistic Astrophysics (CCGRRA) has been an important conference for the community of general relativists and relativistic astrophysicists in Canada for over 30 years. The meeting will bring...

The inverse algebraic approximation is addressed and established the direct and inverse approximation of algebraic polynomials in the Jacobi-weighted Sobolev and Besov spaces. With the approximation theory of algebraic polynomials, we investigate the...

In this talk we consider a class of games with continuum of players where equilibrium can be obtained by the minimization of a certain functional related to optimal transport. We then use the powerful entropic regularization technique to approximate...

When a sequence of numbers is slowly converging and when it is impossible to have access to the process producing it, it can be transformed, by a sequence transformation, into a new sequence which, under some assumptions, converges faster to the same...

For a domain X with a probability measure pX, consider reconstruction of an unknown function f using discrete least squares approximation from a linear space Vm of dimension m constructed from values f(xi), where xi are randomly drawn from X w.r.t....

The traditional modelling with partial differential equations has often ignored the stochastic nature of the underlying biological processes, and focussed on the deterministic description. This has led to significant results and has helped to grow...
