An overview is given of the application of twistor geometric ideas to supersymmetry with particular emphasis on the construction of superspaces associated with four-dimensional spacetime. Talk given at Leuven conference, July 1995.
Invited talk at the EPS-HEPP meeting in Krakow, July 2009. My first thought, and presumably the default expectation, was that I'd talk in a general way about the grandeur of high energy physics and the exciting future we anticipate,…

These are expended notes of my talk at the summer institute in algebraic geometry (Seattle, July-August 2005), whose main purpose is to present a global overview on the theory of higher and derived stacks. This text is far from being…
Lecture given Friday 7 April 1995 at the Santa Fe Institute, Santa Fe, New Mexico. The lecture was videotaped; this is an edited transcript.
This is a set of lecture notes that developed out of courses on the lambda calculus that I taught at the University of Ottawa in 2001 and at Dalhousie University in 2007 and 2013. Topics covered in these notes include the untyped lambda…

Lecture notes from a minicourse given at the ICTP in May 2002.
Mesh representation by random walks has been shown to benefit deep learning. Randomness is indeed a powerful concept. However, it comes with a price: some walks might wander around non-characteristic regions of the mesh, which might be…
Online conference proceedings for the IWDECIE workshop, taking place in New Orleans on June 5th, 2011. The workshop focuses on non-conventional implementations of bioinspired algorithms and its conceptual implications.

The phenomenology of large, warped, and universal extra dimensions is reviewed. Characteristic signals are emphasized rather than an extensive survey. This is the writeup of lectures given at the Theoretical Advanced Study Institute in…
The paper gives a collection of open problems on abstract polytopes that were either presented at the Polytopes Day in Calgary or motivated by discussions at the preceding Workshop on Convex and Abstract Polytopes at the Banff International…
This paper gives an overview of Fred Cohen's work and is a summary of the talk which I gave during his 60th birthday conference, held at the University of Tokyo in July 2005.
