Xiao Liu, a second year PhD student currently working with Professor Catherine Sulem, was recently honoured by the CMS for his poster presentation on “Numerical Simulations of Resonant Tunneling of Fast Solitons for Nonlinear Schrodinger Equations”.
In the student poster session three posters were chosen to receive a prize; one by AARMS, one by the President of the CMS and one by the CMS Student Committee. Xiao Liu was honoured to receive the CMS President’s Award.
Xiao presented his poster at the 2010 CMS Summer Meeting to attendees. The event itself attracts mathematicians from across the country and is designed to highlight and honour the best mathematicians. It is a series of lectures, seminars, poster presentations and socials designed to bring mathematicians together. This year’s event was held in Fredericton, New Brunswick from June 4 – 6, 2010.
