Résumé
Building on its track record of supporting mathematical sciences research, discovery, and
innovation, the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) proposes a variety of highcaliber,
collaborative, thematic and training programs fostering excellence in the mathematical and
statistical sciences in Canada. PIMS supports scientists and their research to build collaborative
partnerships and sustainable research infrastructure.
Novel activities proposed include the PIMS Research Networks (PRN), Network-Wide Graduate
Courses, the Math to Power Industry (M2PI) program, the Emergent Research PIMS Postdoctoral
Fellows Seminar, the PIMS + X scholars program supporting collaborative exchanges with
Canadian and international mathematical sciences institutes, and a Virtual Experimental
Mathematics Laboratory (VXML). Support will continue for the signature PIMS innovation, the
Collaborative Research Groups (CRG) program, Post- doctoral Fellows (PDF) program, summer
schools and workshops, and the Syzygy and Callysto computational platforms. PIMS programs
are focused on building research capacity, community, and enhancing equity, diversity and
inclusion (EDI), a crucial part of excellence in the sciences.
Extensive collaborations with Canadian and international institutes are a central element in this
proposal. These partnerships, and the support of member universities, highly leverage NSERC
support. As the first distributed mathematical sciences institute in the world, and the first
International Research Laboratory (IRL) of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique
(CNRS) in the mathematical sciences in North America, PIMS has deep expertise in building
collaborative networks across large geographical distances. This expertise has been invaluable in
addressing operational challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and creating platforms that
enable collaboration across its distributed network and beyond. PIMS will leverage this expertise
to pursue further development in North America.
