He joined the University of Toronto in 1984, where he is presently a professor. His research is on theoretical aspects of distributed … 7 Dec 2018 11:00 to 12:00 Event Aurélien Alfonsi Approximation of probability measures in convex order by projections for the Wasserstein distance Seminar 7 Dec 2018 11:15 to 12:45 Event Pierre-Louis Lions HJB, MFG and others (5) Lecture 7 Dec 2018 09:00 to 11:00 Event Rachid Guerraoui The consensus universality theorem Lecture Abstract This lecture introduced the notion of universality in distributed algorithms, illustrating it in the context of shared memory. The lecture gave a precise definition of a universal computing object and presented a simple universal construction … 7 Dec 2018 10:00 to 11:00 Event Anne Cheng Reading of the chapter " Liyun " from the Treatise on Rites (3) Seminar A good knowledge of classical Chinese is required for the seminar. … 6 Dec 2018 16:30 to 18:00 Event François Déroche Some Qur'anic concepts (3) Lecture 6 Dec 2018 14:00 to 15:00 Event Anne Cheng Universality, globality, cosmopolitanism (China, Japan, India) (continued) (3) Lecture 6 Dec 2018 11:00 to 12:00 Event Henry Laurens Crises in the East, British hegemony 1926-1956 (4) Lecture 5 Dec 2018 15:00 to 17:00 Event Victor Mougel Electrode materials " isolated sites " defined on a molecular scale forCO2 electroreduction Seminar Abstract The electroreduction of carbon dioxide is one way of converting it into higher value-added chemical compounds. In this context, the overriding criterion in the selection of electrode materials for this reaction is their propensity to produce … 5 Dec 2018 11:00 to 12:00 Event Xavier Leroy A door must be opened or closed ! Classical logic, continuations, control operators Lecture Abstract Classical logic and intuitionistic logic can be seen as irreconcilable enemies, as in the polemic between Hilbert and Brouwer in 1927. More positively, we can, like Gödel in the 1930s, use intuitionistic logic to better understand classical … 5 Dec 2018 10:00 to 11:00 Event Marc Fontecave Solid catalysts with isolated metal sites : a bridge between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis (I) Lecture Abstract One of the characteristics of molecular (and enzymatic) catalysts is that they are made up of a very limited number of metal atoms (usually just one), whereas solid catalysts are made up of a very large number of metal atoms. Recently, it has … 5 Dec 2018 10:00 to 11:00 Event Dominique Charpin A Babylonian domain under Samsu-Iluna (5) Seminar A good knowledge of cuneiform is required for the seminar. … 5 Dec 2018 10:00 to 12:00 Event Hélène Sallon Arab political culture (4) Seminar 5 Dec 2018 11:00 to 12:30 Event Assia Mahboubi Computer-aided mathematics Seminar Abstract The second seminar was devoted to the uses in mathematical research of computers in general, and proof assistants (Coq, HOL, Mizar, etc.) in particular. Long employed as a support for experiments and an aid to intuition, computer calculation can … 5 Dec 2018 11:30 to 12:30 Event Jean-Jacques Hublin Hunting and society Lecture Abstract The activity of hunting to ensure the subsistence of a human group is directly dependent on the accessibility of a certain territory. And the carrying capacity of the latter influences demography, which is considered a determining factor in … 4 Dec 2018 17:00 to 18:30 Event Edith Heard To what extent does the environment influence epigenetic modifications and their transmission ? Lecture Abstract In this third lecture, several examples of environmentally programmed epigenetic changes were first presented. Then, the influence of the environment on the inter- or trans-generational transmission of epigenetic changes and phenotypes was … 4 Dec 2018 16:00 to 18:00 Event Thomas Lecuit Spatial and temporal mechanochemical instabilities (2) Lecture Abstract This lecture continues the presentation of mechanical instabilities.

They are a valuable cosmological tool. Their rate of formation at each epoch will enable us to test models of modified gravity. Through gravitational lenses, they will place … 3 Dec 2018 16:45 to 17:45 Event Dominique Charpin The ups and downs of the twenties Lecture Abstract After regaining control of Ešnunna and the lower Diyala valley, Samsu-iluna made less successful attempts to the north and west of Babylonia ; in the south, he eventually lost what remained of the land of Sumer.
