Polytopes (also known in dimensions zero through three as "points", "line segments", “polygons", and “polyhedra") have been objects of interest to mathematicians throughout the recorded history of mathematics. Most notably, the five Platonic solids were probably known at least a…
Find out moreEmily Gunawan, University of Connecticut, Cambrian combinatorics on quiver representations
Let Q be an orientation of a type A Dynkin diagram. An eta map corresponding to Q is a surjection from the weak order on permutations to a Cambrian lattice (of triangulations of a polygon). We give a new geometric way…

Jon Stallrich, NC State, Sign-Informative Design and Analysis of Supersaturated Designs
Much of the literature on the design and analysis of supersaturated designs (SSDs), in which the number of factors exceeds the number of runs, rests on design principles assuming a least-squares analysis. More recently, researchers have discovered the potential of analyzing SSDs with penalized…
