Kevin Purbhoo's paper, co-authored with Jake Levinson, has been accepted for publication in Inventiones Mathematicae.

The Faculty of Mathematics Research Office recently announced its 2021 recipients of the Golden Jubilee Research Excellence Award. Sophie Spirkl, an assistant professor in combinatorics and optimization, was one of this year’s winners.

A new virtual lecture series from the Department of Combinatorics and Optimization and The Fields Institute, featuing one hour lectures on research in theory and applications of optimization with an emphasis on continuous optimization.

Congratulations to the researchers in the Department of Combinatorics and Optimization who have been awarded a 2020 Oustanding Performance Award announced by Vice-President, Academic and Provost James Rush.

Robert Cummings is the recipient of the 2021 Governor General’s Academic Silver Medal for the Faculty of Mathematics. Cummings, an Honours Computer Science and Combinatorics and Optimization student, will graduate this June with a BMath.

"An Invitation to Analytic Combinatorics: From One to Several Variables", written by C&O professor Stephen Melczer, has been published by Springer.

Three Ph.D. and seven M.Math. C&O students will receive their degrees at the Spring 2021 convocation on June 18.

Olya Mandelshtam and Kanstantsin Pashkovich are the newest faculty members in the C&O department.

Professor Henry Wolkowicz is a co-organizer of an upcoming Workshop on Discrete Geometry, Semidefinite Programming and Applications (May 10-14) and a Mini-Symposium on Sensor Network Localization and Dynamical Distance Geometry (May 18-27).

In her paper, the 1989 Erdos-Hajnal conjecture is resolved for cycles of length 5.
