Girls in Mathematical Sciences Program – Residential

The Girls in Mathematical Sciences Program (GMSP) Beneficiaries (Cohort 1) are currently at the AIMS Ghana Centre for their final residential session. The GMSP 9-month training for Senior High School girls has been running since its launch in November 2020. The participants have had various sessions both online and face-to-face for training, mentorship and exposure

Numerical schemes for radial Dunkl processes

Abstract:  In this talk, we consider the numerical approximation for a class of radial Dunkl processes corresponding to arbitrary (reduced) root systems. This class contains some well-known processes such as Bessel processes and Dyson’s Brownian motions. We introduce a backward and truncated Euler–Maruyama scheme, which can be implemented on a computer, and study its rate of

E-Week 2021

As a highly technical and mathematical Institution, AIMS Ghana believes that the only way to ensure that graduates are flexible and fit for top-tier institutions is to inculcate some soft, social and leadership skills that employers would need in their organizations. There is also a segment that focuses on enhancing Entrepreneurial capabilities through design thinking and ideation where the students would focus on solving pressing issues within

United Nations Day for South-South Cooperation

Cooperations between the people and countries of the Global South are crucial to the socio-economic development of the whole of Africa. Now more than ever, the COVID-19 pandemic makes these cooperations more beneficial. AIMS is leveraging partnerships with Institutions from the South to prepare the brightest young Africans for the job market. Today, we celebrate

INTERNATIONAL LITERACY DAY

“As champions of STEM literacy, through our initiatives, we are building a sustainable pipeline of African expertise by equipping Africa’s youth from the secondary to the postgraduate level…” ~AIMS Global CEO: Ms. Lydie Hakizimana. #ILD2021

AIMS Ghana Leavers Week Hackathon

As part of the activities for the graduation week celebration, AIMS Ghana brings to students, an exciting learning episode through brainstorming and design thinking. This event will be one that will encourage teamwork among current students and alumni toward the development of ideas to solve real-life problems. It is also an opportunity to prepare you

Back to the future: Using full genome data to infer past species history and ecological/life-history traits

Speaker: Prof. Aurélien Tellier (Professor of population genetics, Technical University of Munich, Germany) Abstract:  The field of evolutionary genetics is profoundly rooted in stochastic mathematical theory and since several years the theory has been extended to model the evolution of full genomes. Indeed, large amounts of full genome data are becoming available for human but also non-model organisms.

Davie type estimations for the Brownian sheet

Abstract: We prove and apply a local time-space integration formula to provide several Davie type bounds for the Brownian sheet. This local time-space integration formula is similar to that obtained by Eisenbaum for the reversible semimartingales. Davie type bounds are useful to prove strong uniqueness results for stochastic differential equations with irregular drifts. Such estimates originated

On “rough” Quadratic Wiener Functionals

Speaker: Prof. Jiro Akahori (Professor, Department of Mathematical Sciences, Ritsumeikan University, Japan) Abstract: In this talk, the law of functionals of fractional Brownian motion, which is quadratic in an infinite-dimensional sense, and also related topics, will be discussed.  We are interested in how the classical results on quadratic functionals of standard Browian motion are generalized. Applications will
